Hello there,
I recently found the ROM to upgrade the Droid Razr XT912 to JB. Went through the process and it all worked out fine...however I have noticed a few things that I was hoping to get help with.
1.When trying to go into camera it shows up for a second then freezes and a popup says Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped.
2.When going into system settings it has Cyanogen mod infomation there but under OTA updates(Not sure if they are cyanogen mod updates or Verizons) it says Error fetching update info: Invalid ROM(STOCK0JB-cm_spyder) and device(cdma_spyder) combo!
Just trying to find out what I need to do to get the camera working, the other thing may just be as intended with this ROM.
It is the one located at this url here on the site.

From the thread where you downloaded:
What Doesn't Work?
Webtop
HDMI
FFC Video
Camera Flash
Bugs?
Normal CM10 bugs like the screen rotation shrinkage.
Volumes
Bluetooth
Maybe more, you tell me!

AND not all roms support OTA updates.
Hey, here is a good idea..... Go read the thread where you downloaded from. There might be an answer in there. And while you are at it, why not post your question in that thread?
EDIT: There are other people with the same problem in that thread. Not sure if there is a fix. READ IT. Oh, and I notice you cannot post since you only have two posts. Go help 8 people and then you can post your question in the thread if it isn't solved already.
I fixed the problem by downloading a third party camera app for ICS. I would have posted there if I could have, the problems I read about all related to just the flash on the camera not working...not the whole camera itself. I must have missed it in the 12 pages.
I apologize. Did a search for my problem and could not find anyone saying the keywords I was looking for. Thanks for the response as unhelpful as it was.

There is still time to go help 7 people and get your 10 posts. Then you won't have this problem in the future if your problem is not addressed in that thread.
You have been a member here since June!!

the tone of your posts comes across at my end as though your caffeine level is too low or to high. just my perception & just letting you know.

Thanks for letting me know. My caffeine level is fine though. Thanks for your concern.
I was just pointing out that the OP should read the thread for his specific ROM. That would be the best place for info.
If he had read it (instead of searching it) he would see that there are a few other people that are having the same problem. There are also a few suggestions as to what might be causing the problem and a suggested fix.
That's all I'm saying brah!
And if he would have found a few minutes to make a few posts over the last 6 months that he has been a member here, he would have been able to post in the thread where he is most likely to get an answer from the other people running that ROM, including the DEV.
That's all I was saying!
But again, thanks for your concern about my caffeine levels.
Hi everyone,
I realize this is a quite stupid first question on this forum, as I found many threads, which already discuss it. The problem is that the answers seem inconsistent.
I would like to know if Whatsapp Sniffer still works for reading Whatsapp messages on the same Wifi. If only in some cases, or with some device, in what cases or devices.
There is still a huge amount of articles, searching on Google, which explain how this is still possible and normal. In some threads here and elsewhere, though, I read this problem was fixed by Whatsapp already a year ago.
Could somebody making it clear?
Sorry again if it is a bit dumb and it was already clarified.
Thanks,
Notte
Help
Any help?
Is this the right section?
Thank you very much.
Notte
Nah, it dosent work now and wont work ever........back when watsapp started it wasnt encrypting the messages............it has now shifted to encryption.........
Hello Everyone.
I have an Z2 tablet which i love very much, and yesterday i unlocked my bootloader and installed CWM. Everything was woorking great until i booted up z2 first the sony logo came up and then xperian logo and after xperian it freezes and turn off and on.... boot loop ish. Then i tried to make a hard reset , didn't work. After Hard reset i turned it on and i'm stuck on SONY logo. I have the SGP521 WIFI + LTE.
Ps also tried wipe data and stuff from CWM didn't work
CAN ALSO GET INTO CWM but not more than that D:
Sorry for bad English. i hope you will understand

Aaargh, it is unnerving that recently the forum members have to deal again and again with people who don't read properly and flash wrong kernels.
OK, LAST TIME:
You must first know which firmware (.36, .55, .69 or .402) you have on your tablet.
Then you must flash the right kernel for that firmware (and for your device, be it WiFi or LTE) (which you obviously didn't) - yes, there are different ones, and it all is written already in the CWM thread.

Is that constant "newbee bashing" really necessary ?
YOU know where to read, YOU know how to do things. Others don't.
YOU may find important information at the first glance. Others don't.
YOU may succeed extracting just the right information from a hell of technical terms. Others don't.
Remember that old song from "Sesame Street" ? - In German, because you're German: "Wer nicht fragt, bleibt dumm." - "You won't learn anything if you don't ask."
Now people ask because they need help. So help them or let it be - but don't bash them for asking. Please.
We're here for helping each other, aren't we ?

Rather ask: Are these constant posts and constant new threads of people who do complicated, potentially dangerous things without proper reading and proper understanding (and then crying for help) really necessary?
For many, many years tech people had a slogan: "RTFM!" A very true statement!
And this applies here, too.
And it's in the forum rules of XDA that a user, before asking or requesting something, should first properly read through the forums whether his question has been answered already.
Someone who doesn't have a couple of spare hours (which are at least needed) to read the forums and to get knowledge how things are done and to double-check and again double-check before going into action simply either should refrain from things like unlocking, rooting, modding etc. or should at least not AGAIN try to cut corners when something went wrong by simply posting "HALP! BRICKED! WHAT SHALL I DO?", but at least THEN start to RTFM.
This is why people like Franco of Franco Kernel SEEM "rude" when they write in their OPs that you should inform yourself properly or otherwise shouldn't install the kernel or at least should refrain from "HALP!" posts or such. They are simply fed up with that. Understandable.
Or, another comparison and even with more negative consequences: Someone releases, say, a root app in the play store and gets tons of one-star reviews just because people with unrooted devices who can't read complain "Wohoo, the app doesn't work at all! Crap!"

In my defense i looked up on Google and couldn't find any solution. And because it's pretty new it's really hard to find ANY solutions. (I DID SOLVE MY PROBLEM AT LAST, WITH SOME HELP FROM FRIENDLY XDA MEMBERS)
XDA is my home when i haven't found any solutions, members are always nice telling me where to or how to fix things. They even do point out nicely if i haven't checked XDA. You do the opposite and attack on new people. :/ Oh well just a reminder don't make people feel bad because they don't know.
I'm searching and can't find the answer. How did you solved it? It would help others if you share your solution.
Thanks

This will be a launching pad for tips and recommendations for members negotiating long threads and reading pertinent information. I read many posts with members stating that the thread is just too long to read. Then using that as an excuse for not reading at all. Please add your ideas and methods for reading.
The first thing I do when looking at a new thread is read the OP. I always check dates and also the date of the latest iteration of the ROM, kernel, etc. after reading what the author wrote about their thread I'll jump to the end of the thread and read backwards to the date of the latest release. This gets me up to date with the latest build and any issues.
Then I'll decide if I want to flash this on my very expensive device.
Like I said...
Please add on your tips!
Thanks!

Hi...
The way you use to read a thread pretty much summarize the way I do it myself. I go a step further by searching within the said thread with some key words such as:
Problem, issue, brick, bricked, bootloop, etc...
I may sound paranoid, but I often browse the forum late at night and I could miss an important post due to being tired.
Cheers...
Great idea Ray. Teach by teaching, not by beating a person over the head lol
I go to the OP also and if I am interested in flashing, go back a month or two and read posts to see if things are stable or not. I also follow a bunch of Roms that I don't intent to flash or, have flashed before - just to see what kind of problems have arisen and how they were dealt with. It's a great way to pass a ride on the train or other idle time. I do think that there are many from around the world here and language might be a factor effecting their ability to read and/or search. Either way, I love this XDA, a valued tool! Too bad I came along so late in the game.

You're right!
Performing a search can be an art form. Using the just right keyword to be successful takes some practice. It is so important to try many paths and exhaust all possibilities before posting your question in the threads. And then phrasing your question with all your information is important as well.

Well, since my first modded android phone in 2008, i have never felt the need of asking anything. Most likely because all issues I encountered were already covered. Either by developers or people answering issues reported by previous users having the same problems. And maybe because I like to get things done by myself. (Which I achieve 1% of the time ).
I check XDA almost every day since. I must say that the "reading thing" may sound challenging for some people. You'll ask me why?
What follows is about novice users for the most part who don't know about/how to use the search function. Try reading a thread where 100 users come each and every day writing the same thing about the same problem over and over. And over again...
Trying to find the relevant posts in-between all this mess is sometimes quite discouraging.
I'm lucky to have affinity with English and of course it's a lot easier to read and find infos when I need them. Google translate became really nice with time. Yet i find myself using it, since English is not my native language and I learned it the hard way. Sometimes it's sad to see people not using such a powerful tool.
People, please use the search function! Take some time to read. If you don't get it, use an online translator. :good:
PS: Hopefully I didn't derail too much from the OP with this post... I'll delete it if needed.

From the beginning, searching for the answer - did someone else have the same situation and fix it(?) - THIS always seemed easier and more gratifying than waiting for someone to answer me on a thread
Actually, I was flashing macks ROM, then CM on my note 2 and I didn't even KNOW XDA existed. I was so grateful when I found it. Especially when I got this phone. With Google ai, now it seems so much easier to do a quick search on the web

Yeah I know how you feel! At least for me having no real technical knowledge, I'm always glad to find the solutions by myself. Since it's around and just needs a search it's even faster than waiting for an answer. Also, since I only need to search when my phone is broken, I simply can't wait for someone to answer. Imagine no one replied during two days...

This is the first place I found when I started to flash my HTC vision back in 2008. I started reading guides and development and was like: WTF these guys are cracking bootloader, carrier unlocking, etc... And all can be found so easily... :good:
Hello, wonderful and talented guys. I follow your work, but i have to say that work here is a bit not organized. So many ways to achive something, so many threads, and so many things that go wrong. I know there are hours of hard work and so on, so probably my critics dont go against you developers, but towards the site's organizers. Its damn hard to find a real solution to a situation. You are awesome programmers, but finding a good solution to something specific can be tricky as hell. I have a device, for example, that shows another model while trying recovery. No help about TWRP troubleshooting. I'm lost now as a noob (as you guys call), though i need basic info. Guides are, most of them, a couple of command lines, which dont help to people who dont even know what is that. Einstein said "everybody is a genius, but if you jugde a fish for his way of climbing a tree, he will always think he is stupid". You are awesome programmers, but please organize the site better. Or get people to do that. Some program, some explain, you dont have to be all in one. Thanks for your attention to this post, and i hope you are intellingent enough to get this as a suggestion. See you around
I fully agree with you..I have been in charge in of a forum a few years back and I kept things in one thread.
In this case here with the togari there was a few users who was very active here in the beginning mostly those who got their hands on one in the early summer.
Then it died off and the pinned posts are there and dead..no one writes in them.
And then there was the legendary user LordManhattan who got banned and reappeared and got banned again and again
I dunno why don't ask me why the user was banned..
Perhaps if no one else replies here I might consolidate all info here in one thread and keep it alive for a few years.
And finally ask a mod to remove the old pinned threads and replace it with a new "single" one thread.

It seems to me you divided your topic into two parts a technical issue and an argument.
I read your post as your main argument is gained towards your disappointment against the disorganized forum with topics hard to find an easy to follow 1, 2, 3 step answer to an issue.
And I agree with this.
Hence my suggestion that I might be willing to consolidate information to a new single pinned thread.
If you have a specific issue you want help with look in the different parts of the forum but more specifically
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/help
If you looked through all pages and you don't find any other thread similar to your topic then start a new thread and ask your question.
You can also use the search function. Put in a single word and it will soon find other posts with this word included if you get a hit.
But I don't fully understand if your main issue is that the recovery reporting a different device from what you are using?
This was the case years ago when roms for example was ported from togari's little brother honami. But this was solved eventually.

WOW happy to see you SUper user ...!! i am using this forum since 2009 when HTC magic first came out and rooting it was hell of a task including , creating a gold card via hex editor , remote not allowed issue , i recall amon_ra he helped me alot i worked whole night kept on reading carefully each step ... those days were amazing ,
i see now a days very little support by senior devs... for older phones...
by the ways thanks for all your hard work all devs and supporters ...

My pleasure :highfive: I read a lot about android and was very excited when they announced android.
But I didn't buy one until the desire was released. I kept going with my iphone 1 and 3g modding with cydia.
I had a few htc desire pvt 1 and two pvt 4 with boatloads of devs solving problems and coming up with exotic mods. I still have my one x.
I recently got my hands on a desire a year ago when a friend had one that didn't boot. It turned out someone in the past had done s-off and flashed a data2sd rom and the sd card was accidentally wiped making it unable to boot.
I enjoyed every bit of the time took me to fix the phone and reminded me how android really was a different world back then. I understand that it is much more fun owning an HTC device by looking at any of their device forums as there is tons of roms and devs hanging out there just like the old days. Its what I miss with sony devices.. here is a small group of users that don't keep their devices for very long and the forum fades away in silence.
I have also had many samsung devices probably being the most confusing due to their naming of stock roms..THSMM338FHHH could be older than THSMRM338FHHH but newer than THSMRR348FHHA ..(??)
"worked whole night kept on reading carefully each step"
Something similar I think senior flashoholics have probably forgotten the horrifying ~30 minutes endlessly waiting for the phone to boot after flashing a rom or mod thinking..
"if my phone don't boot now I bricked my phone". "$1k is going down the drain if it don't boot in the next 2 min.."
Thank god we don't have that today. Back then flashing roms was living on the edge
Probably the most scary I've done is gaining s-off on our desire. http://alpharev.nl/
Several times the terminal returned some type of error and you're ready to smack your phone in the table :crying:
I had totally forgotten about "remote not allowed "! I hate that.
I've gotten that message so many times when rooting a phone and then suddenly it just works..
I think I eventually gave up on rooting the Wildfire S because of this error message..I followed the guide correctly but it did not work.

I've gotten that message so many times when rooting a phone and then suddenly it just works..
I think I eventually gave up on rooting the Wildfire S because of this error message..I followed the guide correctly but it did not work.
