[Q] Green led while charging (How to Disable it)? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I have rooted my phone and tried the lightflow app temporarily and then I happened to deleted it. However since I still can't seem to be able to find a way to disable the Green LED while charging either through wireless or through the wall unit.
Help please.

Just tried that, no success.. What shall I do?

Did you use light flow to enable the led?

No, Not really.. I just rooted and installed lightflow post rooting and it was not set up yet! However whilst charging the green led persisted to stay on!

What ROM, what kernel?

Your signature says you're on franco kernel. If this is true you can use francos app and disable it under kernel settings

Hah.. didn't see that. Franco kernel enables the charging led by default. Search the kernel thread for the command to turn it off, or buy franko.Kernel Updater to turn it off easily.

/sys/devices/leds-qpnp-f002ee00/leds/charging/
If you don't want to type the command into terminal. You can go to this directory with a root enabled file explorer (I use ES file explorer) and change the max_brightness file from 1 to 0
This will do the same as the terminal command, I think however, just like typing it into terminal you will have to redo it on each boot

Use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androguide.universal.init.d to set on boot if you do not have FKU because Franco does not have init.d support.
Turn the switch in the app to ON
Create a file in /system/etc/init.d
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
#
#Charge LED - Off
echo 0 > /sys/devices/leds-qpnp-f002ee00/leds/charging/max_brightness
Really only need the 4th line.

Cheers, guys problem solved. Love this place...

Just wondering how did you solve it. Did you buy the Franco app or did you do the file method? I too want to disable this LED.

My assumption is because he was using franco kernel, he disabled it with the franco app.

Why in hell would this be enabled by default? I'm just testing the kernel so I don't want to buy a $5 app just yet. At least not until I'm sure this is the kernel I want to use in the long run. So far this LED is my only complaint. I'll look into it. Thank you.

Both methods work perfectly.
However I still have one small query why does it automatically reset when the phone is restarted?

Everything in /sys reverts to kernel defaults at boot.
From this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58426385&postcount=10
Create an init.d script or download script manager or tasker to run that script on boot. Google that if you don't know how.

nope. nope. nope. nope. even hard developement in cm11(novafusion) its kind of buggy.
you can use otg transfer files plug mouse/keyboard/gamepad. but when you unplug it. phone thinks its charging something. you need to reboot phone everytime.

[Q] Boot Loop due to bad Xposed Module

Today I have had my first ever boot loop where the phone will not get past the animation screen. The last thing I did was install an xposed module called "Nottach Xposed". Not sure where to go from here. Never had this sort of problem before. Any help would be appreciated. I'm unlocked, rooted, running stock 4.4.2. I am able to get into custom recovery (twrp) if that'll help me. I don't want to attempt to find and delete where the file installed through TWRP till I can get some info from somebody here who is vastly more intelligent than I with our devices.

You should have a Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip file on your device. Mine always goes to /sdcard0/. If you flash it, it should disable all your modules

yes there is if you can boot into TWRP, but idk if that is safe to do.
Advanced, File Manager, then navigate to where you think the file is, click on it and then you will have the option to delete it. Idk if there will be any permissions problems or not.

Is there an easy way to unroot?

I'm using chroma ROM and my satellite provider requires it's app to run on an unrooted phone. I'd there an easy way to unroot my Nexus without having to wipe?

Flash the system image from a factory image. If your kernel is modified, flash the boot IMG as well.
Use wugs toolkit.

So just to get this straight and I don't screw up my phone. I find the stock rom same version as my chroma which is LMY48B. I extract it and using fastboot I install system.img and boot.img? My phone is unencrypted right now... Will it get encrypted?
And when I need root again I must just install it along with Franco Kernel I'm using?
I appreciate the help...

I installed it on my laptop but even though my phone is rooted I don't see an option to unroot... Maybe because I didn't use regular rom and used chroma instead?

First, why are you trying to unroot?
You would download a factory image form the Google developer page. Extract twice, and grab the system image from there. Yes, match the version your phone is currently on.

Have you considered multi ROM? You could have your rooted normal set up and a non rooted as well.
Can't you just go into supersu settings and unroot? That way you can stay on chroma

Depends on how deeply his situation is looking for root files. The unroot feature of SuperSU doesn't remove everything.

How about the encryption? Chroma is unencrypted. If the second rom is encrypted what happens there?
I'm also trying to find a stock rom that is not pre-rooted to install from recovery. Can you show me the latest I can get?

My friend I installed multirom and used an older Chroma rom that wasn't pre-rooted. it worked like a charm.... Now I can just go to this rom and use all my apps that require the phone to be unrooted.... Again thanks for the idea....
Can I just ask what version of chroma wasn't pre rooted? I want to do the same if possible. Thanks

well, 2 months ago it was being called older.. anyways, the far majority of roms do not have root. you need to flash the supersu file shen flashing the roms, for root. but, to flash a rom, yoh need an unlocked bootloader and twrp recovery. most apps that check for root will still think that you have root though.

i must have fell asleep during this development lol
far as i have ever seen, its rare for a rom to not be rooted, however, more frequently devs have had it off by default, and its a treasure hunt to find where to turn it on.
i do always flash the su zip, to avoid this tedious hunting though.

yup I found that most are pre-rooted, though found cleancore that works great. I've just installed multirom and that booted into it then tested a couple of apps that are blocked on root (Banking app and Sky Go), and happy days they work great.
Its annoying and rather wasteful having have a second rom just to run a couple of apps but at least now I can use the apps on my device if I want to. Thanks
Typical apps block hacking (root) so the work around instead of unrooting is to go deeper with the hacks/mods

G930T_PG1_Stock_DeOdexed_Debloated_ROM (7/10/2016)

**You can begin the following process from any Build but you must already have Root Access**
**Required** [root] FlashFire
Download:
- G930T_PG1_Stock_DeOdexed_Debloated_ROM.zip
1. Place the ROM onto your device (use either internal or ext-sdcard).
2. Open the FlashFire app, grant root access, and "Agree" to the Terms and Conditions.
3. Press "(+)" twice to bring up the "Actions" menu.
4. Press "Flash Zip or OTA" and locate and select the ROM. Use the default settings under the "Options" menu and press the checkmark to continue.
5. From the main menu Uncheck all options under "EverRoot" and set "Reboot" to "Download."
6. Press the lightning bolt then "Ok" to begin the flash . The screen will turn black then display the contents of your system before beginning the flash. FlashFire will pause for about 1 minute while flashing the "system" partition.
7. Once the flash is complete and the device reboots into "Download" mode, flash the G930T_PG1_Stock_Modem_Recovery_Bootloader.tar.md5 using Odin's AP slot. The device will take 10 - 15 mins for the first boot!
8. To regain root access, re-run "root.bat" once the device has fully rebooted. Make certain usb debugging is enabled. Enjoy!
Tip: for blazing fast speed turn off animations from Developer Options and reboot!
Notes:
1. The above process will not affect your Knox Warranty Flag.
2. The above process will update your Modem, Non-hlos, System, Bootloader, and Stock Recovery.
3. The ROM will automatically wipe all User Data!
4. Follow this guide if you do not already have root access: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s7/how-to/root-s7-att-g930a-g935a-t3410538

Nice! Thanks!
First off thanks for posting the first rom in this section. I just wanted to ask if this runs at the speed of the stock s7 or does it lag and delay like mine is now after rooting and applying the fixes?

Others will have to share their thoughts on that. I am running pure stock w/out root. But debloated, deodexed ROM'S usually run a little faster than pure stock.

THANK YOU, will try as soon as I charge my phone and I will post updates.
Running amazing, definitely faster then stick rooted, only issue I'm having is when trying to make a call it takes a few seconds to connect :/ tried disabling Volte didn't make a difference
This rom is a phenomenal start. It is atleast as fast as stock s7 and runs circles around a fresh rooted one. As stated above the only thing I did notice was some weird calling issue but what cleared that up for me was dialer/settings/ turn off volte and also turn off wifi calling. The wifi calling had to be tricked into turning off as the regular wifi calling in settings was grayed out but I was able to get it in the dialer section. Thanks for a great start!

Hey, I also found this weird problem, may NOT be with this ROM, but I've never seen it before. Whenever I try to change the permissions of any app, I get this error. SO, I have to go thru and disable every app before I can change ANY app's permissions. VERY annoying. Anyone have a workaround?

Just odin flash the stock PG1 .tar files.
You may also want to remove that link to the regular SuperSU.zip. People should only use the special SuperSU version made for use with adb.

I have no this issue. How do you get root? AndroidPlus Kernel?
If yes, you can try to delete below file by Root Explorer.
/data/credmgr/credmgr.db
Edit: I check it and I have no effect also.
Because I can't delete credmgr.db
Everytime I reboot the device.
This file reappear again.
I can confirm .227 no this issue
