i decided to try to get heimdall working on osx (i also only use unix, and only have windows handy in a vm for using odin)

I renamed the .tar.md5 files to .tar and extracted the .img from them.

first i tried

heimdall flash --factoryfs factoryfs.img

with heimdall 1.3.2 i had problems uploading factoryfs.img so i downgraded to heimdall 1.3.1

with 1.3.1 it flashes factoryfs.img, but then my device just bootloops

i have tried heimdall from a linux vm as well but i get the same results.

the fix is easy, i simply open my windows vm, attach the device in download mode (i love my usb jig!), open odin, check pda, click pda, select my factoryfs.tar.md5 and click start

i too would like to get this working in heimdall, let me know if you have better luck with it!

I know that copying the su binary to the system/bin doesn't work because apperantly its a read only file system

IV tried copying the su binary keep getting read only status. There has to be a way to use the Android SDK to get this thing rooted. I rooted my Nexus 7 using psneuter still no luck with the Galaxy Player thouh
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] krzee:
If you want root you need to flash the file in odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] FuzzyMonshta:
So what your saying is that i can flash the su binary to the xbin or bin... Or just flash the rom im afraid of a boot loop i experienced
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] krzee:
I get the same boot loop results using heimdall. I'm trying to find a fix. Until we find it, use it in Odin and it works.

I would like to purchase an HDMI cable that came with the Nexus Q mine didn't include one.

Thanks.
[Nexus Q General] animal24:
Good luck. The device wasn't really ever released. I bought 2 and one came with the real HDMI cable

Its got a block at the q end so it fits in snugly. The other end has nexus printed on it. If you have any luck let us know yeah?

I assume you already know that any micro HDMI will work, right?
[Nexus Q General] gunsarebad:
Yeah I know any will work but I want the one that came with the Q. I'm sure someone doesn't value it as much as I do and would be willing to part with it for much more than a micro HDMI cable is worth
[Nexus Q General] stox:
Cable can be found

all over the place, it is a standard micro-hdmi cable. I picked one up at Microcenter.
[Nexus Q General] gunsarebad:
You're completely missing the point. There's a specific HDMI cable that came with the Nexus q. If you're a collector like me it matters

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZA5:
I just got my nexus 7 five days ago and before I got it I say it was 1200mhz but when I got it rooted it set it up things in setcpu it says 1300mhz(stock ROM stock kernel) but it doesn't actually work at 1300mhz only 1200. So is it 1300mhz or 1200mhz and if it is 1200mhz is it supposed to be able to go to 1300mhz?

hey everyone,

I tried looking through the forums for a thread that has a radio modem rom from the nexus 4 with no luck. Even the Index thread has nothing under "Modem."

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] oswade:
Has anyone managed to get the Samsung backup to work (the inbuilt sms/mms/call log one in settings)??

In previous roms (4.1.1 and LLKC port) I tried to backup my sms but it always froze at 0% for a min or so then eventually failed. I thought this might be due to the "modified" status of my device but have had no confirmation.

Now im running LL3 stock official (i9305) and when I go to device backup I immediately get a black screen and settings force close. Is this the same for other people? my install was non-wipe.

Hope someone can shed light on the matter. It would be a useful function imo .

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
When you do a factory reset the build number remains to what you are current using. If you flash another version, it will become that version. It is kind of obvious.

To achieve what you're trying to do:

Downgrade your firmware version, either use flashtool to flash this tft, or flash back to a stock 2.3.3 firmware: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1591398

Turn on USB Debugging and use SuperOneClick to root: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Perform step 1 because SuperOneClick won't work on stock 2.3.4. Here is the guide, however use the tft file from the link I posted previously: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2054486

CWM is clockworkmod recovery, but nevermind if you don't intend to use it. It's only for flashing custom rom and kernel, but you need to unlock your bootloader before you can do that.

[Android General] alex8899:
I have search this type of app on the Google Play Store market. But I can't find good solution. These days almost all the android devices has dual or quad-core processors. Most of the core managing apps can only enable or disable the core. They are not support disable core at a selected time period etc. All most all of them work user on-demand. I have no idea about android apps development, so if there's an app with following feature will be fantastic (If someone cam do it).

Features.

Scheduled the core disabling using time period (For instance when the user sleeping time).

Support automated applications to tiger app (core disabler) services. For instance Tasker, Locale, etc apps to enable/disable core disabler service.

Enable and disabled cores, when we run the selected apps. For instance when we run the Game.

Support multiple devices with multiple manufacture.

Three years later and not one single app after QCM showed up that can cover up our needs. Kernel Adiutor is an amazing app that can disable selected cores, but that just won't work on my Sony Xperia Z, running on stock 5.1 Lollipop ROM. And I hope I'm not the only one with that problem. I believe it's true that disabling some cores will lead up to a better battery life, and to me, it's shocking to see that nobody wants to develop an app that can support Lollipop and newer devices (those built from 2014 onwards)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KlipperKyle:
You said your phone shuts off after hard use, and you said it is really hot when it shuts down. This sounds like a hardware problem. When the processor gets too hot, the device kills power to protect it from frying. Almost every computer has a similar last-resort power-off feature to protect its hardware.

Now the real question: What is making the device overheat? Most likely this is a hardware problem, but there is a remote possibility that the problem could be a rouge app.

A factory reset will remove the apps you installed. If there is an app running an infinite loop in the background, a factory reset might fix the problem. (I remember you said you are running stock without root, so there are no firmware issues. The only possible software issues are with your apps.)

I am sorry to say that you might have a defective board.

But why start doing that after a month of using it? The only new I did was using the maps app for more than 4hours... A friend toll me to clear cache on map apps...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KlipperKyle:
If the problem really is hardware, it was a defect that made it past quality control. It's the same reason why a new hard drive might fail after a week of usage--infant mortality. Infant mortality is quite rare, but it does happen nevertheless.

Fortunately, Google's replacement procedure is quite nice compared to most other companies. If Google sends you a replacement, you can keep your existing phone until the replacement arrives. This way, you are not left without a phone temporarily.
