[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoDze:
Okay guys, listen up. My phone is screwed. I was running Helly Bean 4.1.2 on the Devil 1.9.5 CMC kernel(a standard setup, I don't see anything wrong here), OC'd to 1.2GHz and that's it. Last night my phone was working fine, played a bit of minecraft, bought Asphalt 5, downloaded its files, I'm not using an external SD, just the internal 16 gigs. Now, what happened is that I woke up, my phone didn't react to the power button, when I pressed it once or held it for a few seconds to boot, so I took out my battery like normal. I thought my phone was SODing. But then, my phone booted to recovery. I choose "Reboot device" thinking it was some boot bug or whatever, but then it booted just back to recovery. I thought my system was effed up, so I went to do a full wipe, but it didn't want to wipe my device. I tried Install zip from SD, and then it happened. "Can't mount E:"

So, I did the standard procedure. Odin --> KK4 --> Corn Kernel. And guess what? No luck, it still won't load my internal SD, it won't even boot. I even tried to wipe the internal SD in the stock samsung recovery, but nope.

Guys, is it over? Did my Cappy hit rock bottom? Bit the grass? Is there a way to fix stuff?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Seems like your internal sd might be fried. Was your device overeating from time to time (or a lot)?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoDze:
No, and that's what bugs me the most. Yes, it was getting hot when playing games or being on wifi a lot, but I would just let it cool down after that. And no, I wasn't playing games all the time. I mean, the phone was ok before I went to sleep, it was ok at 5AM when I went to get myself a glass of water, but when I woke up later, dead. Well, looks like I'm leaving this community then :/ I'll get myself a feature phone and an mp3 player. That'll work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Here's a thread that might help you: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1988051

It's not much of a solution but if files are readable with your pc, transfer them and try other ROMs/formating to FAT32.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoDze:
Well, I gave the phone to my friend, he'll take a look inside, the hardware and stuff and then he'll bring it back, but the thread you linked doesn't provide any answers either. I'm sure I can't mount my internal to my pc, or is there a way to mount it while in download mode O.o Anyway, it's the end of the road :( Thank you BWolf for your help, you have my thanks anyway :)

Is there a method to change default stock media player on jellybean to other; so that apps naturally using stock/native player can use another(custom player) instead?

ROM: Unofficial BakedBeans NativeSD.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Can't you just open a media file then set it to use whichever media player you want as the default one?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jhha:
I do that; well that's not what I want to know.! :p

My problem is with streaming media apps which uses(intend made to use) the native/stock player to play the stream. :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerazz:
Does anyone know how to separate the Silver plated part from the black part of the spen? The silver part is not aligned with the black part and it always get stuck in the phone and needs to be pulled out really hard. I tried with other spen on my phone and its fine so i know its because of it not being aligned.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] twanskys204:
Pics?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerazz:
Here are the pics
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] twanskys204:
Well I'm sitting here looking at my spen and, ,it has the same size gap between the silver top piece and the base.

The only suggestion I can give you is call Samsung and ask them about it...I'm sure they would be pleased to send u a new one..not very expensive for them. Just my suggestion. :beer:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerazz:
Thats sounds like a good idea !! I didnt think about that.. but i lost my reciept D: its still okay tho right?

hey guys,

I'm currently using a galaxy note and i was wondering if there's any way to disable my internet but to keep me connected to the local network when I'm using a wifi connection? thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
use a firewall service like droidwall from the playstore. and apply the rules with whitelist with none checked. You need to be rooted.. or you can modify your router settings and give the phone a static ip and then from access restrictions disable http, https pop etc access to that IP
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pathfinder906:
thanks alot, droidwall works just fine :good::laugh:
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
So I was excited to finally use Google wallet on my nexus, I walked into my local McDonalds and ordered just a regular cheeseburger. When the lady asked me to pay I then busted out my phone and tried to tap the NFC pad, it didn't do anything and everyone was staring at me thinking I'm some sort of alien. I just thought maybe you guys have some fails too, please post below!!
[Nexus 4 General] siloner:
Since PA had been updating the ROM a lot, I forget to set up my wallet. Every time I have the chance to use it, it takes forever to set up. I always just end up using my debit card
[Nexus 4 General] gotzaDroid:
It's happened to me too. My wallet works at a lot of places, so it's not my phone, but it's still embarrassing. It's the store/restaurant, but the dummies working there don't know how to use pay pass or their system was never set up for our even though the pass pad is on.
[Nexus 4 General] riko540:
I've used it with vending machines a few times. I'm afraid to use it at a store cause I don't know if its set up on their system and I don't want to make an idiot of myself. Lol

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
There is a list that is easily found that shows the stores, etc that have signed on. It works well at those places of your set up. I have only used it twice though as not many stores use it yet.
[Nexus 4 General] david717:
I recently tried to use it at my place of work. No matter what, the cashier and I couldn't get it to work. She had heard of the technology and even has another customer who uses Google wallet. I finally decided it was the phone and paid cash. Wallet recognizes its near the NFC debit reader, but says the data transfer may have failed.
[Nexus 4 General] adamhlj:
I have had it work and not work. In fact, it has worked AND not worked in the same McDonalds, but most likely different pads. My friend that works for google says that it is most likely the pad that doesn't work. But when you start it, make sure you have set up wallet AND that the screen has been turned on. You might want to try resetting your phone before you go into a place where you are going to pay with wallet.
[Nexus 4 General] Sfkn2:
Mine has always worked other than the first time at Target.

The instructions tell you to unlock the phone first, tap NFC pad, then put in your access code. That way did not work for me.

Instead, I turn on my phone and load up wallet first. Enter the pin, and keep it at the card screen. Tap to pay. WIN.
[Nexus 4 General] Henrock11:
Yea this this seems to be the way it works most often with me.
[Nexus 4 General] smirkis:
mine always works. i've had a fail here n there but usually my fault after updating roms and not setting wallet back up. unlock screen, tap and you will hear a beep, enter pin, tap again and done. when you get used to it you get faster.
[Nexus 4 General] robrob777:
I gave u a Thanks to cheer you up after the embarrassment.

But yep, I am always afraid of using it, anyway my CC gives me cashback so no need for Google wallet, the first thing I do when I root is to take out the *nfc*apk and Wallet.apk so they don't take resources.

I like more the idea of the Apple passbook.
[Nexus 4 General] Krooked22:
Lol upon reading op
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
It was so embarrassing haha, but I tried again at a rite-aid down the street and worked perfectly. The cashier thought I was from the future, I just looked at him and walked away.
[Nexus 4 General] thos25:
My galaxy nexus works at McDonald's but my n4 doesn't. I thought I saw another thread where they were saying that the new NFC on the n4 want compatible with the older NFC readers at McDonald's.
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
Really? I didn't know that was possible, the cashier had no idea what he was doing, by any chance does anyone know if they have to turn on the NFC pad? Or is it always on?
[Nexus 4 General] wilsonlam97:
Bring it to Canada.
[Nexus 4 General] Sfkn2:
Register NFCs should always be on, and shouldn't be disabled at any time unless it's broken.
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
Seems I have to have the app open to buy something, that's how it worked last time
[Nexus 4 General] trell959:
At McDonalds yes, you have to open the app first, then tap. That ALWAYS works for me.
[Nexus 4 General] Flippy125:
Mod the confirmation tone to sound like a Sonic Screwdriver and tap when the cashier isn't looking at the reader for extra lulz
[Nexus 4 General] mysterioustko:
Out of curiosity, what office does your friend work out of?
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
Makes me want to drive to McDonalds to try it again!
[Nexus 4 General] smanthrav:
I thought wallet doesn't work if you're rooted?
[Nexus 4 General] trell959:
It gives you the unsupported device message, but still works.
[Nexus 4 General] Elbob10s:
I've only used it once but it worked fine and I'm on a custom ROM.
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
I'm still running on stock, I love vanilla android!
[Nexus 4 General] chancy319:
I used to work at a McDonald's. Sometimes, Google Wallet not working can be due to their system. At our McDonald's restaurant, there were three POS systems. The system in the middle had a broken NFC pay pass terminal while the ones on the right and left worked fine.
[Nexus 4 General] darkrom:
User error. I use it every couple of days. 100% success rate other than when I forget to set it up after a new ROM flash.
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
I just tried it again, works flawless. I always have the app open, I feel if the app is closed it wont work :o
[Nexus 4 General] gotzaDroid:
Having the app open does make it go a lot smoother.
[Nexus 4 General] eneka:
The first time I tried it was at Jamba juice an it worked extremely smoothly. Took less than a second. The next two times at McDonalds didn't work so well until I opened wallet with the pin entered and left my phone on the pad for a good while.
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
Maybe some times its a hit and miss but McDonalds works flawless now, I'm done paying in literally two seconds
[Nexus 4 General] ismethajametovic:
You fail for believing in that mumbo jumbo, LOLOLOL.

Physical plastic all the way. :D
[Nexus 4 General] Censura_Umbra:
I've had these issues. Basically, if you don't want to look like a fool follow these steps:

make sure their NFC payment stand has a its led light on, if not then it probably isn't set up

Hold your phone in landscape mode as it usually allows the most reliable connection.

The NFC chip seems to be just below the logo

Keep your phone against they payment stand the entire time, even if it asks for your code.

That usually works for me, but sometimes I still get a card read error

But the best thing to do is open the wallet app and enter your pin BEFORE you get to the register
[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:
This is just the way it works. I use a lock screen, it's never brought up the wallet app when sleeping or awake but locked, it makes sense. I always then just open the wallet app while waiting to pay just to avoid having to type my pin while paying. As long as the phone is unlocked and awake it always will bring up the wallet app and ask for my pin, however.

I've only used it at various Duane Reade around nyc, but it's never not worked while the phone was awake and unlocked, whether I put my pin in right before or not.
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
So if you're just at the home screen, it should work right? But then you have to type in a pin? I wish it would work without a pin
[Nexus 4 General] Sfkn2:
I unlock the phone, open app, put in pin, then put it on their NFC pad.
[Nexus 4 General] kewlguy:
I did use the wallet quite a few times in Duane Reed as well as nyc taxis. Few times on vending machine and it worked well.

It failed quite miserably once at duane reed probably they had the nfc part turned off. Good thing was there was no one behind me in the line.

I always start the wallet app unlock it with the pin and use it after that.
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
I'm a pro at it now, I usually see if the light is on, its should work fine.

Anyone know where I can find the virtual MasterCard # for my visa? The holo ui doesn't display it under the card.

Just paid at a 711 and the woman was like. SIR IT NO WORK LIKE THAT. DAS FOR DE CARDS ONWEE.

payment confirmation and she looked at me like I was from the future or something. This is the most fun thing to do lol. I memorize what stores have them and use them whenever possible.
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
I Do the same, the reactions I get are awesome, they always ask how I do that
[Nexus 4 General] gotzaDroid:
The best is when you go somewhere that specifically has "accepts Google wallet" right on the card reader and the clerk has no idea what you're doing. You'd think that would be part of a training lesson when they got the new equipment...

A close runner up is the people behind you whispering about how is that guy paying with his phone. That I don't mind though because why should they know. I just kindly tell them it's called Google wallet and it is one of the best things I use daily since I got rid of my iPhone. (If I see they're holding an iPhone) the look of disgust towards the phone they're holding is awesome!
[Nexus 4 General] Ponox:
Someone should build a web directory of NFC enables stores so you can easily find them. I've been wanting to try it as well, but I am skeptical as to whether or not Wallet actually works on a custom AOSP ROM.

Also works fine on custom roms. Device not supported doesn't matter, still works.
[Nexus 4 General] bfspider:
The only "fail" I have ever had is where the store's paypass machine doesn't work. Never had a "fail" on my end.
[Nexus 4 General] Zainiak:
This is slightly off topic, but since I can't use a credit card because not old enough to sign (I'm 13 lol) would I be able to use wallet without a guardian around? Never tried it but it would be nice to not have to take cash from my folks all the time. I've used wallet when a parent was with me. Its a great feeling :D

If Google wallet is set up with a card all you have to do is tap your phone, I'm sure it'd be fine

Depends on the cost. I think you still need to sign if it over $20.
[Nexus 4 General] bleuiko:
Mine has always worked....
[Nexus 4 General] Marshton:
I did this about 8 months ago, I was at McDonalds and I had set up Google Wallet (in the UK). I used my free $10 to pay for an apple pie.

Totally worked fine, free apple pie.

The second time I tried it, it didn't work, and I was using my Nexus 7 so imagine how much of an idiot I looked bashing my tablet to the chip and pin machine.

You win some you lose some I guess
[Nexus 4 General] ryan stewart:
It depends on the retailer, they set a policy when negotiating with MC. Obviously MC wants it as high was possible but they will only go as far as they are comfortable (the retailer holds the final liability for the charge).

I think Macy's or something was very high, something like $150. Mine has varied from $30 to $50 in what I have seem go through so far without a signature. Id love to see them crank it up and use policies like on-line purchases. The phone's functionality is harder to ape than a CC since its two-way communication. With a CC they want a signature because anyone can get your CC and use it without a pin or anything, the phone requires the pin (at least in the app it does).

[Nexus 4 General] dlutz8:
I have tried using my Google wallet but every cashier says they dont know how to use it and accept my payment from my phone. Maybe business should be educated on how to use this with their system so I can use my phone to pay.I have even tried Isis( I'm live in Austin) and the card goes through but the tap to pay never works.

They sure can check out my purchase w their iPhone and print a receipt in front of me but I'm "clueless" BC I am not a sheep aka iPhone fan.
[Nexus 4 General] ninjafan:
The nexus 7 NFC is kinda weird cause you have to fish around for that sweet spot. I tested it with my nexus 4 and it took a while for me to get it.
[Nexus 4 General] Blazing angel:
I'm sad i can't use it in Canada
[Nexus 4 General] lannister80:
I've only tried to use it to pay once (McDonald's) and it worked like a charm.

Opened wallet app, typed in PIN, put phone near sensor. BAM, payment.
[Nexus 4 General] stefandunn:
I tried it in MacDonald's in London, UK and it recognised, I entered my pin but then it said something like "outcome unknown, check with cashier if successful"... As if the payment failed for some reason.

Not sure if I didn't hold it right on the pad , or if I moved it when typing my pin number in.

Anyone else had similar issues
[Nexus 4 General] choob6634:
Usually open the app first, type in pin and then when they ask you to pay tap the phone. I always do this right before I'm about to order

Finally set up Google Wallet & NFC. Tried it at a JackInBox and it worked the first time! very cool :)

Was wondering if you could do returns with wallet?

Please disregard typos.... Sent from my NeXuS 4
[Nexus 4 General] gotzaDroid:
You can. It'll just refund the fake CC that wallet uses and credit your real card. I had to return a toy to toys r us and it refunded very fast.

Hell, if everywhere accepted NFC payments, I'd never use a real wallet again! Wallet has been great for me.
[Nexus 4 General] CaptWildBillKelso:
Gawd I'm *STILL* laughing at this comment! Thanks for making my day! :laugh:

Maybe I'm just old but, it makes me think of when I got my first credit card... and I'm like "uh, I'm not putting my card in that!!" because I was skeptical it would work and I'd not get ripped off? Maybe Google Wallet is the same scenario?
[Nexus 4 General] playya:
LOL

Walked into local 7 eleven get a few drinks for me and my kids and go to the counter and take out Nexus and tap pay pass a couple times and pay(rooted Nexus also).

Cashier: Guy at the counter goes how did you do that

Yeah I live in a smallish town (50k though 10k are inmates at local prison)and bunch of people have looked at me funny when I use it. I even had a few occasions where I was planning on using cash when the cashier asked me to pay with my phone to show her coworkers.
