If you get stuck somewhere, let me know. I’ll help https://cdn1.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_smile.gif

For installing twrp , use freegee which would be the most simple solution https://cdn1.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_smile.gif

Confused between these ROMs: AOSP, MoKee and Cyanogenmod.

Any comments for Android 4.4 (Kitkat)?

- The stock modem that comes with the device does not appear to work with CM11. By flashing other radios you can get some features to work, but users report problems with battery life, GPS lock, or data stalls.

Hi all,
1.Can some one explain why is it that some people get security error after rooting and some get it smooth?I believe promoking and others faced security error even though they only removed AT&T apps..
2.Is unlocking the bootloader a must to remove the AT7T apps?
3. Is it better to completely remove the apps using some uninstaller or freeze them by freegee as mentioned in XDA
Thanks in advance
(there are many answers regarding rooting and removing at&T apps.. but none has given a comprehensive process….)

Question for the fellow dimers here, what is the usual battery percentage used by Android OS, and the time for which the Android OS keeps awake? I have a keep awake value of almost 3 h 35 mins out of the total 5h 18m for the battery after full charge.

Guys I need some help
I am unable to configure 3g on the device. I followed the instructions on the thread and selected the options as said. and the menu showed a success message. Then I went to settings and entered the apn setting. But still im unable to connect. I am using a BSNL Kerala sim in WB. I have tried automatic, WCDMA and GSM only modes, turned international roaming on and off and also used APN for BSNL kerala and West Bengal as well. Still no connection.
Can anyone suggest an alternative. Will flashing another build help like CM or are these settings part of the kernel itself?
Any help would be appreciated
