[Q] Upgrading to 4.4 from 4.3? topic

I have the T-Mobile Note 3, and right now I am on Wicked v5 (Rom based on Android 4.3). The recovery I'm on is TWRP 2.3.6.9.

Is it worth upgrading to one of the 4.4.2 roms? Do I need to flash a different recovery or bootloader before I do so? The only requirement I need is WiFi calling on the ROM. If someone can give me some guidance I would appreciate it. I read some stuff but was getting confused on the bootloader required and flashing different kernels if you're using the old bootloader.

Will you/did you upgrade from the M7 to the M8? If you're sticking with the M7 why?

I'm not sure? I'm interested to hear other's opinions.

[Q] Xperia Z1 with CM11. Possible to get stock camera app from Z1? topic

Hello all.

Have the Xperia Z1 with CM11. Wondering if I can get the stock camera app running, and if possible, how?

Don't like the stock camera app for CM11 since I don't think it's able to benefit the good camera of the Z1 to the full extent.

Icons from the Dot View Case topic

Hello,

can anybody with the Dot View case extract or make pictures of all the weather icons?

I know that they are not really Icons, from Marques Video you can see that the real Icons is bigger and altered by the case itself.

I have some Icons from the press pictures.

I want to rebuild this Icons for Zooper Widgets and would be really thankful for pictures!

[Q] (AT&T) Best path to 4.4.2 from 4.4? topic

My setup: 4.4 ATT Moto X, Rooted (by way of latest jcase method), Locked bootloader, and I'm pretty sure write protection is off (though I don't remember how to check)

What I am wanting to know is how would and should I be able to get to 4.4.2, and get my root back (as I'm not confident any method will be able to "keep" my root safely without screwing something else up)? What's the best way based on my setup, and what files or tools would I need(stock 4.4 or 4.4.2 ROM, a new recovery image, etc)?

Since the root method I used hijacks the recovery, I suppose I technically don't have a functional one (other than it maintaining my root). Do I even need a custom recovery? I don't ever plan to flash anything other than basic stock firmware, though I may toy around with Xposed in the future. Also as a sidenote, im currently using ART instead of Dalvik. If any method or technique might conflict with that (other than Xposed), then let me know to the best of your knowledge.

[Q] Rooting from Android 4.3 topic

Hi,

I, after the long wait, foolishly updated my Xperia T to Android 4.3 (build 9.2.A.0.295). Before doing so I made a nandroid backup of my 4.1.2 install (can't remember what build). Only now do I realize this mistake as the current method for rooting requires you to start from a rooted Android 4.1.2 base. So this leaves me in a situation with a lot of questions that need answers.

Firstly, is there a back up technique that I can use (instead of nandroid) that doesn't require a rooted 4.3 device? And if so to what level does it backup (i.e what will I lose)? Or can I create a nandroid without a root? I would like to be able to use it as a safety net so that I don't lose everything if I screw something up.

If there is such a method I would like to root my device but I have been unable to find any instructions rooting from 4.3 for newbies like me. The current post by DaRk-LOrD just says "Install 4.1.2". How do I do that? Is it possible I can just skip downgrading and somehow go straight to installing CWM on 4.3 (I might be talking garbage, I don't know...)?

Also if I am to root I would like a way to get as close as possible to my current installation of Android 4.3 as possible (apps, app data, settings, etc.). How would I go about doing this? Maybe I install Android 4.1.2 from my nandroid I made before updating?

Also, does anyone know if it is likely we will be seeing a tool such as this one for Xperia T 4.3? Maybe if such a tool is in the works I should hold off for a bit longer.

I know these are a lot of question but I have been unable to find this information which is either relevant or applicable to my situation or what I find is just too complicated (steps are too broad and assume too much prior knowledge). If I have left out any information you need please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks,
JamesStewy

Softkeys port from Sense 6 to the M7? topic

I was wondering if with the port of the sense 6 update it would be possible to enable soft keys on the M7. If I had to choose one thing I hate about my M7 is the capacitive keys but that's not enough for me passing over that almost phablet size of the M8.

Cheers.

[Q] HD2 Windows drivers from scratch topic

Cliffs Notes Version:
On a clean Windows 7 computer what do I need to install to get my HD2 to be recognized properly so I can flash some new roms? Drivers? ADB? HTC Sync? All of the Above?

Details:
I have had my HD2 running Android builds for a long time now but haven't flashed a new rom in over a year. I just broke my GS3 and need to dust off the old HD2 to tide me over until I get a new phone. I am having issues getting my computer to recognize the HD2 properly however so I can flash new roms. Both of my computers have had drivers installed to get the GS3 and the Nexus 7 connected to them since and I think the drivers are getting all messed up. I am going to go use a computer that has had no drivers of any kind on it to get it to connect but I am still unsure of what I need to install to get it connected. Drivers? ADB? HTC Sync? All of the above? The HD2 Toolkit has a button for downloading drivers but the link is broken and everything I download since seems to not work.

Thanks for any help or direction!
