[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rawfa:
Hi guys,

I have limited space at my place and I really cannot have another monitor hooked to my laptop 24/7. I need a solution that I can hook up when I need to edit on premiere and that I can remove when I´m not editing. I know there is a way to do this wireslessly with android tablets but it´s super slow and useless for editing. I need to know if there is any way to use an android tablet as a second monitor via USB or HDMI.

I know there is an app for Android called DSLR controller (or something like this) that allows you to mirror Canon EOS camera on your tablet or cell phone using a usb host cable (I´ve tested this on my cell phone and it actually works). For sure there must be a way to do something similar and use a tablet as a second monitor using a usb cable. I´m going to post this on android forum and see what comes up.

cheers

Cheap Chinese Android Tablets as Monitors?

I have been looking at the Habey BIS-6332B as a possible low power field computer using Android, and I am trying to find a good solution as to what to use as Monitor's (Has 2 HDMI OUT) that can be recharged easy by Solar and other means in the Boonies.

There is a Chinese outfit called Chinavasion that sells a slew of pretty cheap Android devices, and their Tablets have HDMI ports!

All the Apps I found so far are for Windows and Mac ONLY. None yet for Android-To-Android.

Curious if you found anything?

If not, any idea what area would need to be Hacked? I am not as interested in a wireless connected Monitor as I am just a better low cost TFT Screen; self powered like the Tablets. For a $65-$120 (US) Device, there has got to be a way :)

In my mind I picture just some Diodes that need to be reversed in the Tablet(s). Air Display in Google Play is the only one so far that looks close Win/Mac only? Any leads are welcome.

Thanks.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riptide05:
Hey guys,

I recently got a Google Nexus 4 and it seems to be losing the network connectivity frequently.

It keeps saying No Service / Emergency Calls Only.

I haven't made any changes to the phone yet and its still running on Stock Android (Android 4.2.2)

I read few other threads on this forum and came to know that there are others who are facing this issue

and one of the solutions is to reboot the phone. However, doing this frequently doesn't seem to be feasible.

I'm in roaming. Could that in any ways be affecting the network signals.

Please let me know if there are any other solutions as I would like to avoid using a custom ROM/ CM as of now.

Thanks in advance :)

It's a known nexus 4 issue. It has been reported. Let's hope google modifies that for newer releases if it's a software issue and non hardware...

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riptide05:
So till it gets fixed, rebooting the phone is the only solution ? Would frequent reboots (say every few hours) do any kind of damage to the device ?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gohan040:
Not totally true....

I replaced my antenna section and this solved my problem.

So it can be hardware related for some.....

Others solved it with a new sim card or flashing the latest baseband. But its a known and annoying problem.

I tried everything and the last option was replacing the antenna section. I work in a mobile repair centre so it was no problem for me.

a pigeon delivered this message.... ** your welcome **
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riptide05:
I reckon it could be due to the sim card, cause the card is kinda old (4+ yrs). Don't think its an issue with the antenna since it works fine in the home network. Only while in roaming it keeps flipping a lot.

Will try and get a replacement SIM for this. Can you point me to some tutorials/guides for flashing to the latest baseband.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Behemyth:
I have that problem, its very random. Lately though everything works fine, voice, ect. My data though is another story. I have the custom APN in, and my data goes from 8-9mb down to less then 1mb, then no connection back to 1-2mb, back to 8-9mb. Bizarre to me. I work in IT, so im on wifi all day every day, its not a huge deal just really annoying. Most of the time though, just using airplane mode fixes any connection problems i have.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riptide05:
I have tried the Airplane Mode. Doesn't help at all.

And even I have noticed that if the signal strength goes beyond -150dBm it does lose the signal. Happens more while in roaming.

No solutions other than reboots so far.

Rooted Archos 80 Titanium HD

I used the VROOT app that Aung Thiha attached on my 80 Titanium HD model. After installing the app with the root.exe executable, I plugged in my tablet fully booted with debug mode turned on, and I pushed the green button in the software. After a few seconds, the tablet rebooted, and I had root.

Now, what to do about the Chinese app that I couldn't understand?

First, it is important to know that when the app pops up to give root access to a program, you need to push the right side button to grant access.

Now, you can search for and install "Superuser" from the Android market. The version made by Clockwordmod did not work for me, it is important to use the version from ChainsDD.

Then start Superuser, and click on the "i" for Information at the top of the app. It should say us binary v3.x.x with the option to "tap to check for updates". Check for updates and then click the update button.

This will replace the Chinese binary version with an English version. You should now be able to see the normal Superuser Icon in the app drawer and will start receiving prompts in English.

My profile is hungry for thanks, so don't forget to give this a thumbs up if you found this helpful.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] fideliofidelio:
Thank you. Will try it soon.

So... you are root with the last update from Archos? You could contact the people on Arctablet forum to send them some files. This could lead in some custom rom in the future.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] Xwang76:
And what about using a linux pc to root this device (titanium 101)?

Hi all!

i have the titanium 70 i want to root, my question (probable dumb) is, i have to back up something before try to root with vroot software? or the vroot will just install the root without modify other things?
[Gen9, Gen10 General] riccetto80:
and another question, if after i root the phone i do the reset to factory default, also the root will be gone and i will have to root again, right?

I'm about to buy a GPS receiver from eBay (new), but I'm not too sure on the "magnetic windscreen mount" that comes with it.

Most of the time, you should keep magnets away from electronic devices due to the damage they can cause, but in this scenario should I be concerned?

I had a magnetic holder for my old MP3 player and it caused one of the components to lift far enough off the PCB for it to lose contact. I will admit though, the magnet I had was obviously too powerful - the casing on the back of the MP3 player used to bend outwards. I just can't afford any damage to happen to my XDA 2.
[General Topics] ThGrim:
I got a TomTom kit from ebay arrived today (purchased from Uncle_sam) the holder is very flimsy, it broke in my hand and is now useless. I was also supposed to receive a leather case, clip and speed camera detector BUT NOTHING.

Beware this seller!!!!

Having said that the TomTom is pure excellence.

[General Topics] cruisin-thru:
I have ysed the magnetic holders with xda1 and xda2, works perfectly, just a small very thin plate of metal sticks to te back of the xda and it holds firmly to the magnetic mount on the windscreen, I have had no adverse effects and in my view this is one of the best ways of mounting a pda, the bonus with the xda2 is that you can film stuff from the car as you go along.
[General Topics] xda-rocks:
Where did you get the magnetic holder from?
[General Topics] Dingo:
Hi,

I brought a magnetic holder at the same time i brought my GPS mouse and chargeing lead from PDAMODS.COM

The magnetic holder is excelent. I have been using it for a long time. As metoined above you get a little metal plate to stick to the back of your device so it has something for the magnet to stick to. However i thought sticking it on the back may make it look a bit ugly. I instead removed the sticky coating and put it under the battery cover. I had to just make it a bit narrower by rubbing it on a knife sharpening stone. This let it fit perfectly and the XDA II looks no different.

The good thing about the mag mount is it is very small and compact, and very quick and easy to place and remove the XDA II.

Hey guys,

I am trying to get the the "up-most" folder of my HTC Droid DNA. On the phone itself I can get to a folder titled "/" which I'm assuming is the root folder of the phone. I want to get into the "/data" partition on my PC to try to fix a game file that is loading incorrectly. But when I plug the phone into my PC all I can see is the internal storage folder. I tried to enable hidden folders as well but no such luck. Any ideas?

Thanks in advanced!
[HTC Droid DNA] CharliesTheMan:
You need to ADB pull it and do what you need to change and then ADB push it. However I would do only the folder like /data/Game-O-Pornstar or /data/com.your_game_name

So an example if I wanted to pull the /data/data folder I would run the command (go to android-sdk on your computer where you unlocked your phone and find platform tools or the folder that adb.exe is inside of. Hold shift, right click, choose "open command window here")

Assume first I made a new folder in platform tools and named it calculator.

"adb pull /data/data/com.android.calculator2 > C:\Android SDK\platform-tools\calculator"

It would put the contents of the com.android.calculator2 directory (folder) into my new folder that I created and called calculator. Then when I'm finished I would do the opposite to push it back

I was just trying to put the directions into more common language but here's the link to actually get the commands

http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html

There's an app called Droid Explorer for the PC that will do this with an interface but the program will often wreak havoc on your adb and fastboot drivers and services.

I suppose u can move them manually to the sd-card, or select the directory for installation as the sd-card ( i think this is done in the play store settings, i dont really remember ). But why do you want to install apps in the sd-card?

I suggest u make an ext partition of your sd card. WARNING!: this will wipe ur sd card clean, make a backup!.

The advantage of making a ext partition is that when u use roms with A2SD support, the ext partition on ur SD CARD acts as internal memory. So u have sort of increased ur internal memory
