Actually, I too would like to know if this is possible. Why can't it just be detected as wireless "headphones/headset".

Although I'm using an iPhone 4 so I'm sure that it'd be more difficult to do this if it is possible.
[Hardware Hacking General] monstorbak:
Should work

It depends on the activity the app code is running on the host device. All audio is able to be routed to the headphones. What kind of phone are you using?
[Hardware Hacking General] ivoidwarranty:
It's not as simple as wired headphones. BT has something called profiles - each profile is for doing some particular thing - like transferring files, playing music, making calls, etc. For a particular feature to be supported, both the phone and the headset has to support that particular profile. Most android versions have support for most common profiles.

Calls are possible through profiles called HSP/HFP and stereo music is possible through profile called A2DP. Most of the mono headsets which are mainly for calling support only HSP/HFP and not A2DP - that's main reason you can't play music on most mono headsets. If you buy stereo BT headsets, they come with both HSP/HFP and A2DP - meaning they can support both calls and audio.

There are apps / hacks to stream music from an android phone to a mono headset through HSP/HFP. I've never tried any - you can look for those if you want to play music on your mono BT HSP headset.

I searched play store for mono bluetooth..... found blue tooth mono router... seems to work ok... a lot of white noise but hey works great!

thanks for the share

[Hardware Hacking General] WowXDArocks:
Are you able to connect the device to a computer or tablet? I think it would depend on the drivers on the device you're connecting to. What are you trying to connect to? Does it detect your earpiece?
[Hardware Hacking General] RoxAbout:
its a jabra bluetooth ear peice.

and theres several "mono" bluetooth apps on the market/play store.

I happened to try blue tooth mono router and it works fairly well.

seems to use aprox 3 to 5% of battery in aprox 15 to 20 mins.

Dare to be Different – FSL Fast Review​

​

Introduction​

After entering the tablet market with Windows 7 proves to be little success, FSL, the Shenzhen based Chinese tech company starts to covet after the fast-growing market for Android tablets. It has recently launched its first Gtab called “Fast”, which uses a 9.7 inch IPS display manufactured by LG, an RK3066 dual core 1.6GHZ processor, and 1GB of DDR3 ram.

The market has seen dozens of tablets with 9.7 inch IPS displays since the end of last year, almost all falling into the category of iPad copycats. Well, bigger plans have been made for “Fast”, as FSL engaged a Korean team of expert designers to tailor the contour of the Fast, making sure that it’ll be unique and fashionable.

Key Features

◇9.7” 16M-color IPS display of XGA resolution (1024X768 pixels)

◇Weighs 580g, 263.9mm*173.9mm*9.8mm in size.

◇RK3066 chipset: Dual-core 1.6GHZ ARM Cortex-A9 processor; 1GB of DDR3 RAM; Mali-400MP4 GPU

◇Stock Android 4.1 JellyBean

◇16GB of built-in-memory

◇2.0MP front facing camera; 2.0MP rear-facing camera

◇Stereo speakers

◇HDMI TV-out

◇USB host

◇Bluetooth 2.0

◇Micro SD card slot

◇Standard 3.5mm audio jack

◇Adobe Flash 11 support

◇1080p videos of all formats

◇8000mAh Li-Po rechargeable battery
[General Questions and Answers] Jupit3r:
Verdict

​

Like:

The design and the build are pretty close to ideal. It doesn’t reach the high point of iPad4 or Nexus 10, but it’s a solid and unique piece of gear at a super low price (@USD 160.00). The Korean team of experts has done a remarkable job in making the Fast one of a kind, and most importantly, gorgeous.

The LG IPS display is impressive in view angles, color saturation, contrast ratio and outdoor visibility. Although the 132ppi density is now far behind most other tablets, you will still appreciate it if you are a Magazine subscriber or comic reader, you can read those stuffs full screen here.

The fast-growing Shenzhen tech powerhouse has also managed to pack in a slew of ports and slots for the Fast, saving the cash you might have to spend on other tablets which need adapters to work the OTG or HDMI output.

Dual cameras and dual stereo speakers also help the Fast to stand out from its Chinese competitions. 8000mAh of Li-Polymer battery and more than 8 hours of 720P video playback is probably most of a Chinese tablet needs to have now!

Dislike:

​

I haven’t found anything that I particularly dislike about this tablet. If I really have to count one, it should be the startup company LOGO, which looks very poorly-designed and should only appear on the archways of a lame grocery store in some very remote villages.

Besides, if FSL wants to make it big, WIFI connectivity needs to be improved in the next generation of its tablets.

The Fast is one of my favorite tablets so far, and I can tell you it’s because of its gorgeous design, you will find nowhere in the world another tablet that looks exactly the same as the Fast, for that alone, it’s a device worth having.

Below are the scores according to the scale I’ve designed for tablet products and the chart showing the comparison with scores of other tablets I’ve tested.

Not Impressed

I bought one of these as an impulse buy after my old tablet smashed on a hard floor. A glance of the specks looked ok, and I could have one in my hands in under 24 hours. Big mistake. Cost me 25 Euro to return it.

It may have a decent cpu, but for the price, the screen and build quality are terrible. That black rubber seal you see around the edge (along with some plastic clips) is what holds the the whole thing together, so the front actually creaks and moves around against the plain (slippery) metal back case. the one I tried was also developing air bubbles under the screen (NOT a screen protector - the actual screen) after a few days.

The screen quality makes reading the internet a blurry frustrating experience that will give you a headache in 20 minutes, movies were very dark and hard to watch on the brightest settings, and the touchscreen is very...very.. poor and unresponsive. You are forever repeating actions to try and get the response you want. The peripheral sockets also feel very weak and poorly made. It felt like a gamble each time you plugged in a usb as to whether it was going to break.

It seems to be a tried and tested formula used by smaller 'fly by night' ****ester computer builders. Stick in a good cpu and more central noteworthy components, but match it up with the very cheapest more peripheral components you can find to build a complete lemon. You know you'll sell enough before going down on the core specification alone.

(I sent it back and got a pipo m1 for the same price. I am now a happy man - and what a huge difference in all round quality)

I cantfind any info on my problem so here it goes...everytime i restart the the phone it says android is up grading and it shows like 32 apps being ootimized. It does it everytime it turns on or restarts....any help is appreciated
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] homeslice976:
Stock ROM? This happens on reboot with odexed ROMs, and upon reboot after wiping dalvik cache in recovery.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tat2messiah:
Yea stock rom downloaded it from htc site
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] homeslice976:
Yea then the only way to get rid of it would be to unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery, install deodexed ROM (most custom ROMs are)

Thats the only way?

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] homeslice976:
That I am aware of. TBH i havent looked too hard though. I was stock for 25 minutes
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] homeslice976:
It's possible with fast boot on you may not see it. But does fast boot apply to cold boots as well? Or just restarts?

Edit: I guess it would apply to cold boots too, since from a cold boot you can't get to bootloader with fast boot on. Try it and let us know.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
No... because with fastboot on the phone never shuts off... similar to hibernate in windows...

It has to do with building odex files AFAIK...

It still does it with fastboot on

Flash a de-odexed rom
[HTC One V] 'Blu:
Ask me for information if you need it.

I've flashed ROMs so many times on this phone I got far passed used to it, and this is one of the only times I've actually managed to softbrick it. I was trying to re-flash x3reme sense after finding out CM10 has a failure of GAPPs and neither of the downloads I have of it works, kind of weird. Anyways, after flashing the ROM, then the kernel, it seemed to be softbricked. This is what I did:

1. Downloaded ROM.zip and extracted boot.img.

2. Moved ROM.zip onto SD Card

3. Wiped cache, dalvik cache, system, and did a factory reset.

4. Flashed ROM.zip

5. Flashed boot.img

6. Rebooted

Now, I am stuck on the HTC screen and I have no clue what I did wrong. I've done this every time I've installed a ROM and it never failed me, besides now. I also tried using Jmz's kernel, and I'm about to try the SuperSick kernel and probably a few others until I unbrick it. Are there other steps I should take, things I should do to troubleshoot, or what should I do to provide more information for you to help me?
[HTC One V] rickyx32:
You have to wipe the cache and dalvik AFTER you flash the kernel through the bootloader, especially when you're swapping ROMs and kernels like that. After step 5, you should have gone into recovery and wiped the cache and dalvik, then you should have rebooted into system.
[HTC One V] mihirengg19:
Correct order-

1 2 5 3 4 6

Are u using correct kernel compatible with ur phone and rom?

R u gsm and flashing cdma packages or vice versa?

R u using-fastboot boot boot.img instead of fastboot flash boot boot.img?
[HTC One V] 'Blu:
I'm CDMA and that's weird, the way I've done it has always worked after literally 13 flashes. But I solved my brick with a recovery that didn't appear until now.
[HTC One V] 1ceb0x:
DUDE! DO NOT FLASH THE KERNEL FROM INSIDE THE ZIP! flash a separate kernel. Flash the kernel from inside the zip IF the developer says so. If not, DO NOT TOUCH THE KERNEL INSIDE THE ZIP - it is an insecure kernel and you MIGHT break your phone!

I have also been interested in doing hardware mods to phones for quite some time. The only device I ever found a mod for was the original Droid. Someone hacked apart the body and added a copper plate as a heatsink. I can dig up the link later when I'm at home.

I really don't think you'll find much support for these kinds of projects, but I will definitely follow this thread with the hope that I'm wrong.

Although, to be honest the only thing I would want to swap out on this phone would be the internal memory. ~11 usable gigs is kind of pathetic.

Hi, I've been looking for that too and applied the following tweak today.

From what I've read this morning, this kind of behaviour is defined by files in /system/usr/keylayout

The actual file you need to edit depends on the rom and/or phone model.

On my NeoV running Ultimate HD 2.0.3, I modified qwerty.kl and pm8058-keypad.kl (not sure which was necessary).

Edit

: tested on TheDarkDefender's CM10 for neoV, editing pm8058-keypad.kl is enough.

You want to search for a line like

key 102 HOME WAKE_DROPPED

or

key 102 HOME WAKE

and replace it with

key 102 HOME

Reboot when done.
