[Q]Write Protection?

The New Desire 816w is quite good a device and I have successfully flashed CWM Recovery & SuperSU. It looks SuperSU is running well and root access have been achieved. I also "successfully" deleted apps shipped with the device and installed google apps by coping files into /system/app and /system/pri-app. But after reboot all apps deleted were reinstated while newly added google apps disappeared. The interesting thing is Superuser.apk is lying in /system/app which I think it's due to flash instalation through recovery. I searched online and found wp_mod.ko might be the problem but I can't find it in /system/lib/modules in my device.
Please help and advise....

Write protection is enabled on all HTC devices by default.
To disable it you have to flash wp_mod.ko module by flar2 that defeats it or flash a custom kernel.
As there isn't available wp_mod for this device nor custom kernels you might ask @flar2 to look into it and help you or wait for kernel source code.

Flar released a write protection module in original development, but I haven't tried it yet.
I flashed PA's full 4.4.2 gapps over the stock ROM in recovery and it's all good. Have the Play store and services and everything works. Any changes you make in recovery will stick.
Of course, make a backup before attempting this.

Moto 360 and Xiaomi Mi4

Newbie question: Xiaomi appears to be not compatible with Android Wear. Is there a workaround? Mi4 is on kit kat 4.4.2. I will have to give up one if I dont find a solution.
Will rooting the Xiaomi be a solution if so....can point me to the right place?

I don't know where you brought your mi4,and which rom you're using.
I suggest the Official Developer's ROM,it contains root and can install Google Apps easily.
And then you can install the file attached(checking by yourself,just got it from my /data/app)
use it to install google apps and then update them up to date with play store.
I know there's some 3rd party ROMs for foreign users.you can try them too.
good luck.

OK,i think you need a fastboot flashing package
http://bigota.d.miui.com/4.11.7/cancro_images_4.11.7_4.4_cn_7ad273c4df.tgz
download it and do a backup,
copy your backup and files out of the phone if you don't want lose them.
THIS WILL WIPE YOUR PHONE INCLUDE SD CARD.
and this is v6 with official English locale settings.
PS:in v5,updater is good choice to update to v6.try long pressing the menu button to call menu out.

Hi guys,
same problem with my new mi4 and my moto 360.
I had not had any problem with Xiaomi hongmi Note, but this mi4 is facing this problem.
I am not located in China, so maybe this has something to do with it.
Kind regards.

If you are using Android 6.0 now, you have to flash Android 5.1.1 vendor and bootloader (it's safe, just reboot to fastboot and write this command)

Can we also get nav buttons? When I'd flashed this, the lack of nav buttons, on top of not getting play store running, was a huge downer.
As of now, I think RemixOS is better.

Back button on left top corner. Home button on right down corner
Play store. I get SetupWizard error on logcat. This is strange

Already coded from PhoenixOS? Didn't see when I'd used it before. Anyway to modify it to more like Remix?
When I'd tried to install gapps, they installed, but trying to open play store it never opened. Was very odd.

I can, and quite well. I flashed this way before you even posted this as a .zip. I'm just agreeing with you, that after flashing Gapps, I didn't get PlayStore running either. In reference to the buttons, I was asking if the buttons could be modified to be placed on the lower bar. Can you not comprehend?
smh, seriously some of you people are ridiculous.

PhoenixOS not contains AccountManager, so using GApps not currently possible. Let's wait for new versions PhoenixOS.
You can use 1MobileMarket or http://apk-dl.com/

Look in the zip and see what files it replaces (in this case all the files in system/fonts)
Then take these files from the rom zip you are using or stock firmware (you will need to extract the stock firmware first) and replace the files in the zip with the ones from the rom zip and flash it
You might also need to see what else the updater script does
Of course making a twrp backup before trying anything would be alot simpler if you needed to revert

Thank you.

I installed the ROM and was using it for some time.
1. I was able to install gapps (Bitgapps .6) and login to google. But my contacts didn't show up. In the settings >other accounts section, there is no option to enable contacts sync
2. I installed Titanium backup pro which i purchased from google and titanium took quite a long time(this is true of all all apps requiring root) to acquire root privileges. Also I was not able to do batch restore . After restoring one app titanium exits.
3 gcam works. Stock camera does not work. Able to record videos and photos using gcam
4 There was heating with the default kernel, ie nameless R28. I installed bubble wrap successfully, but still the temp was above normal ie around 50°C.
5. Volte works.
So the initial set up of apps and data could take some time. Also heating. Chinese characters are there in some apps. Otherwise ROM can be used as daily driver.
