Could you help me?
Wifi Crash, Media Crash, Settings "Storage" Crash
Hey guys, I'm on PA 4.6 BETA5, when I flash the aosp or franko kernel (after going back to stock kernel before flashing the new one) my Wifi won't enable, android.something.media crashes and in the settings app, when I tap storage the app crashes...any way to solve this problem or an alternative? Thanks!
PS: I'm really sorry if this was asked before, I read the hole last 10 sites of the forum and didnt found anythings related to my problem, "just" 10 sites because I think its related to 4.4.4 and maybe PA.

There are custom kernels (unleased kernel series, Hells Doctor, Hellscore, ...) which supports OTG and also supports Lolipop.
Stock Lollipop
A zip file where i can make a modification to my stock kernel on the N4! I want to use the stock for a few days to test it!

mm okey! so, have you test Hells Doctor on Lollipop? I will try out it this afternoon. I'm running a 4.3 stock perfectly with the otg, but Lollipop look like so excited.
Lollipop
Is there a patch for android lollipop for OTG support? I have franco.Kernel installed.
Lollipop
Is there a patch for Lollipop? Or does the kitkat patch work on lollipop?

I have no idea! I have tested Hells Doctor and Hell Core kernels on my Nexus 4 running Stock Lollipop and anyone work. :crying: :crying:
Anyone tried this patch on stock Lollipop kernel? Does it work?
How does one "Simply install the zip in recovery"?
My screen is broken (just the touch; everything is still visible). I was hoping I could install this mod without being able to touch the lower half of my screen so that I could plug in a mouse so that I could copy some files off my device.
I can reboot into recovery mode, but USB debugging is *not* enabled. I've never used "adb" on this device before (I just says "offline" when I try to run it from my PC).
I have no idea how to "install a zip".
Phone is an Nexus 4, running android 4.something.
OTG on Paranoid 4.6 beta 6
Hello,
When I flash the kernel (R199) and the system load I can't turn on the wifi and every time I enter the storege settings they crash.
also tried the other versions of the kernel, no help.
please help.
Thanks,
Is the OP willing to develop the patch for lollipop too? Or is there any nice kernel with USB host support?
nexus 4 lolipop 5.0.1 and xbox wireless gamepad
Hello. I want use xbox360 wireless gamepad on my nexus 4 lolipop 5.0.1. I think first I need kernel with OTG support. What kernel I can download on 5.0.1 android? I need y-cable for receiver of xbox360. what about mouses and keyboards they also need y-cable?
What can be the problem, why OTG still doesn't work
Hey guys,
however I'm completely new to this stuff, I managed to get through every barriers, and I put Cyanogenmod 11 snapshot M12 on my Nexus 4 and after that flashed the suggested kernel and patch successfully to try out OTG. The phone works withput problem, the installations seem to be successful, therefore I tried to connect an external storage to the phone to check if OTG works on it.
For that, I used a SIMPLE OTG cable like this:
<<<LINK CANNOT BE SHOWN SINCE I AM NEW TO THE FORUM - picture is the second picture of the first post in this thread>>>
connected to an Y-cable SIMILAR to this:
<<<NO LINK AGAIN - the 3rd picture of the first post in this thread>>>
The difference from the one on the picture is that mine has a male mini USB end instead of a female normal USB end as in the picture. My cable is the cable of an external wichester otherwise.
So, I tried with this cable setup, the result was that both the phone and the connected storage received electricity from the external power source, but the storage was not detected by the phone. I had a feeling that it doesn't get enogh power, so I attached it to a USB phone charger just to be sure, but the situation remained the same: the light on the storage was green, which means it is charging, the light on the phone was also on, but the storage was not detected.
My question is if I should try with the exact same cable set that can be found in the first post of this thread on the first picture or mine also should do the job, and there should be still some software related problem?
Please also tell me if you need more information on this to answer it, however I tried to be specific.
Thank you for your help in advance.
Hello. What i can do on lolipop? There is no solution? I have a 32gb flash drive, y-otg cable, standart power adapter micro-usb-male. Rooted nexus4
Which zip I need to download?
Hi, i'm really beggining on Android stuffs, since I didnt had one until the last week, so I'm really in doubt about which one of the zip files i need to install in my system to make the OTG cable work properly.
Once I downloaded a random ziddley zip on the internet and when I installed it in recovery mode, i needed to reinstall the android system on my phone, since the phone wont boot anymore.
So, can anyone help me? I'm sharing in this post a screenshot of the Android Version screen on the settings. I've rooted my phone using the King Root app
Considering that my android version is 4.4.4, I consider that I may download one of the following:
4.4.x: 2013.12.11 1604ET: [fk r199] [fk r199-CM]
4.4.x: 2013.12.06 1445ET: [aosp r7]
But which one?
And just another noob question. Is this the right way to install the ziddley zip on my phone?
(www).addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-install-a-rom-or-app-from-zip-file-to-android-device-from-recovery/
Sorry for the noob questions and thanks to anyone who helps, because I REALLY need the otg cable to work, so I can develop some things using the XBOX 360 cable!

OK, so I`ve installed this ROM and it was very easy to do. However, what am I supposed to "see" different? My "settings" screen looks the same and not the same as the screenshot in the forum (Overcome 10.1 Series v2.1.1). Also,I can confirm I`m on Overcome 10.1 Series v2.1.1 since the about device screen tells me. I`ve seen the changelog etc but don`t fully understand the differences to the standard Samsung ROM. Also, now it`s a custom ROM, will this allow me to charge via USB (from PC) or do I need to enable something to allow this? Sorry for the noobs question!! Ta

Since Overcome doesn't have any extra themes or anything, you won't "see" anything different. You probably noticed that some of the applications you had are now gone (the ones installed by your carrier etc.) and that you now have root access (superuser application). It also has an extended power menu, allowing you to reboot to recovery and download mode directly.
There are also some other changes that you can't see, like the ROM being zipaligned and deodexed - those changes cannot be "seen", but they should make the ROM run smoother. Also, if you updated from stock 3.1 or something, you're now on android 3.2.
As this ROM has a stock kernel, it will not allow you to charge via USB, for that you will need pershoots kernel (look in the development part of the forums or click the link in my sig ). After you flash the kernel, you'll also need to enable USB charging. Again, search is your friend here, I think there is even a sticky that has all the info needed.
Thanks for the reply.Excellent!
No problem, if you have any other questions I'm sure someone will have the answer .
Oh and feel free to click the "thanks" button ;-)

This helps. Been searching for solutions for enable USB charging on Overcome ROM. Was not dare to simply flash Pershoot kernel but sounds working great on u so will do try it. Thanks!!
Recently I found this interesting Tool ... and I successfully flashed "Allminipc_ug802_RT8188_4.4_720p.img" (Kitkat version) on my MK802 III using Debian Linux 7.5!
Regards, mistersixt.
In case someone is interested: I successfully installed the rk3066 drivers for WinXP using Moborobo, rooted the device with the kingo root tool, and I was able to installed the xposed framework 2.6, too, including XPrivacy, root cloak etc.
So I have a fully 4.4.2 running MK802 III with root access and Xposed framework!

Very interesting..Any chance you could share the firmware image file and also let us know how has it been so far...is it fast enough and does the Wifi and Camera (UVC drivers compatible) work w/ this ?
Also could you confirm if this is for MK802III and not MK802IIIS...
Cheers

It is the MK802III, and the stick is running fast and stable. Wifi is as bad as with 4.1 ... but I think this is a general (or hardware related) issue, I am using it with a USB to LAN adapter anyway.
Concerning the camera I have no idea.

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
I've just installed this firmware on my MK802III and it seems no audio video app is working properly. Youtube does not show any video or sound. Neither can I play youtube in the browser.
No streaming media player works either. Only the local media files are playing properly.
The playstore seems to take ages to install apps because of speed, however when I check the internet speed using speed testing app it gives a good enough speed of 7Mbps.
Also i've noticed that there the wifi network connections are getting dropped abruptly. The wifi connection itself seems to be OK but connection from apps such as Airdroid drop out and upload from my local machine via Airdroid takes ages w/ speeds in Kbps.
Can this be fixed please.
Thanks,
OP

MK802IIIs up and running
Works brilliantly on my MK802IIIs. Wifi is strong and Bluetooth works out of the box. Already rooted and CWM recovery installed. Now its time for some Xposed magic! Anyone has an idea which XBMC version will run best on this?
I'm using the ROM from this thread http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...73-full-1080p-modded-kit-kat-4-4-2-rk3066-rom
Super fast and stable, its like a new machine coming from the old JB ROM I had on there. I can actually use it now.
This ROM is for an Imito device but the MK802IIIS is identical hardware.
Few OC kernels in that thread to to play with.

Hi,
The rom seems nice but I just can't get it to run correctly on my MK802IIS. I just flashed the rom on this thread (V 1.1 ) without flashing a custom kernel. Just flashed the entire rom. And after the first boot, I see the apps update (the optimization screen) and then I'm stuck on the screen where there is an Android icon on the top with a blue bar underneath. This screen just keeps blinking and seems to be impossible to pass. I can access the settings, but I found impossible to activate wifi or lan.
Ozzy, you seem to have a MK802IIIS, did I miss something during the flashing? Do I need to flah a custom kernel after flashing the rom?

I just flashed the basic ROM with the unmodified kernel. I did try one of the OC kernels but it wasn't stable on my device.
The screen you mention doesn't sound familiar to me.
Did you do a full wipe?

Hi, thanks for your answer mate
Yeah I did a full wipe, that's why I don't understand what's happening to me. I see someone on the thread has the exact same problem, but doesn't precise on which device, so I preferred to ask you first, as we have the same device.
I'll just try the v.1.0, mabe that 1.1 version doesn't run on my key. Did you flash the 1.1 or the 1.0 ?
Hello
I know I am a bit off topic but this TV stick is based on the same CPU....Can somebody help me ?

I have just installed Allminipc_ug802_RT8188_4.4_720p on an MK802III. I have used it for an hour and installed all my apps etc.
Both sound and Wifi (Realtek) seems to work.
I've been using mine daily since I posted last time. It works fine except for some hick ups.
Sometimes during bootup it hangs with just 3 penguins on the screen.
And I'm running out of internal disk space all the time. I never did that on the official 4.2 even though I had many more applications installed then. Any ideas how to fix that?

Howdy XDAers,
So I'm currently in the process of trying to complete my Kegbot install. I have a Nexus 7 (Grouper) that was upgraded to Lollipop (5.0.2) and was following the instructions as given at <DEFEAT ROBOT>https://forum.kegbot.org/t/howto-root-nexus-7/203/7</DEFEAT ROBOT>. The problem is that post was written for the Kit Kat version of Android. And unfortunately the Kangaroo kernels they have linked to have been replaced by someone trying to install malware on my system (the nerve). So that was a dead end.
Anyway I am looking for a kernel that allows me to use USB OTG and charge my Nexus at the same time while on Lollipop. Does such a kernel exist yet? About 45 minutes of Googling has yielded nothing. If not can someone point me to where I can find a Kit Kat kernel with the aforementioned support and an accompanying ROM to go with it. I can handle the rest from there. Thanks gents (and ladies if any are in here).
[ EDIT ] : Spelling and Grammar.
Hi Stieg.
Did you ever figure this out? i`m in the same situation myself. just started my kegbot build but i am trying to run the server directly from the Tablet.
Hi,
Total noob here, I've been reading alot but a bunch of it is way over my head, and i can only watch so many videos. PLease break it down "barney style" for me...
So i have a Nexus 7 2012 Wi-FI + 3g, its unlocked, rooted and running 4.4.2 with TWRP 3.0.2.0 via the Nexus root tool. I have a OTG cable to be able to charge and use an external hard drive, and from what i'm reading i need to flash a new kernel to be able to use that. I've found Timur's kernel works to accomplish that, but i can not find that kernel, and he's stop hosting it since Sep. 28, 2014. Does anyone have that kernel? Does it work with 4.4.2 and TWRP? Are there other kernels that i can use vice Timur's that allow me to use the OTG + charging? Also i do not plan to install this in my car.
Thanks,
Adam
Need this also
gI am looking for the same think. The web is full of conflicting answers.
I recently bought a FLIR ONE thermal imaging camera. Unfortunately, the device is not detected on my D802 using any marshmallow ROM.
I was using Resurrection Remix rom, but also tried Paranoid, XOSP, Dirty Unicorns, AICP, .... with no luck. Also, flashing Dorimanx and Lambda kernel didn't help.
When I run Chainfire USB Host Diagnostics, it says the kernel supports it, but OS does not.
On Lollipop (stock-based) roms, there is no issue, and the device is detected.
Can someone explain why the marshmallow ROMs miss this support. Is there any way to get this working ? I'm now running a LP rom again, just to be able to use the cam, but it really feels like a downgrade.
Same here, did you manage to fix it?

No fix other than going to stock based ROM or other phone.
All mm/aosp/caf roms are using a generic otg driver that breaks support for usb host intent filters. In other words, the phone won't broadcast to applications the a usb otg device has been plugged in.
It's not just your device in question, any device other than flash storage doesn't get detected. A developer could probably fix this but as it is broken in all non-stock roms it would probably be challenging to fix.
I do android development Mostly for the droid turbo, apps and tweaks. I think i may be able to help out here.
I did manage to get flir one working on none stock rom last night. It worked fine on stock. Then i seen this post installed cm and no joy. So after a bit of tweaking i did get it to work. I will see if i can come up with some kind of Universal patch for all users.
I will try and post a how to video to get it working on non stock roms. I am going to pull out some other phones to see if the patch works on all phones.
Keep an eye on my youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/iphostway/videos
I will work on a Universal fix starting today.
