[Nexus 4 Accessories] joenathane:
Thanks for the recommendation, I bought Augmented Smartwatch a day or so after receiving the watch, it's a pretty complex app so I'm not sure that I am getting the full benefit of it's feature set.

I would like to use the watch to answer the phone for times like when I am in the car, and the phone is docked on the windshield and connected via bluetooth to my car stereo that has a mic, I'd be able to just tap the button on the watch and answer the call.

I was able to get the 5-6 days after the latest update and turning off the backlight turning on via the accelerometer, I think with true e-ink the watch would probably get much better battery life. I also use "Lama" to turn off Bluetooth on my phone after 9pm and turn it back on after 9am.

I found that watch face to be the most attractive and functional, it having the month and day on it.

Do you have a link to the watch faces you created? I'd like to check them out :)

Is the SDK easy to work with?

When playing music does your Pebble get out of sync with the currently playing track(mine does every once and a while)?

This would be my second favorite watch face
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
I've only uploaded one. And used a simple quick face generator to create a black Imperial/Empire logo with the time in the middle with the date on the bottom. The others are personal ones with pictures of my 4 yr old acting weird :silly:.

You can get a bunch of watchfaces from mypebblefaces.com (best to view from your phone to download) to check the different faces. I currently love the Maurice one. It's my fav.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] zhuozhi211:
Awesome!

Wonder when they will finally start shipping the pre-orders. Hopefully before iWatch, and Galaxy Watch hit the market.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
Oh and as for the music, yes it get's a bit mixed up, but I thought it was me being too impatient in pressing the buttons lol.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] sy224048:
Looks great but how about we cook up a custom rom for the pebble?

Sent from my fist to your face.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] reginickneo:
I'm thinking about a smart watch...

Cookoo watch is looks nicer to me:

http://www.connectedevice.com/cookoo-watch-black/

The price is so high.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
I initially backed that when it was on kickstarter last year but I didn't like how it was shaping up so I backed out. Glad I did because they don't offer an Android version yet. The cookoo's only work on iPhones right now. There is a promise there will be an Android version soon, but no eta.

$129 isn't that bad. It's a little higher than the Sony Smartwatch and the Pebble is going to retail $150.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
Been a while since I got it and wanted to update the thread with the status of the Pebble and it's constant use with it on the Nexus 4. With the ongoing use of Augmented Smartwatch, the Pebble is an extension, not replacement for my phone. I view it as an extended notification bar on my wrist lol.

I have it where I can get my google now alerts as well as my call, sms, and gmail notifications..oh forgot shiprack shipping notification updates get forwarded to the Pebble as well. Then there is the gravy on top, IMO, the music controls.

Basically, the Pebble, has lived up to it's deal, besides of the issue they had with the color producing system they had in place for the pebbles. Not Knowing ahead of time that colored creations would take longer time in production because of whatever reason, really put a damper on my grey one I initially had my eyes on. But having black Pebble since late April, I haven't looked back. I have since replaced the band as pictured in OP, also changed the watch faces of course lol. And now playing with the different skins available. Having coming from a wooden watch from Mica (awesome btw-bought a new one for my wife for xmas and she loves it), I came across the wooden skins (take that DowntownJeffBrown and your phalic wooden Nexus lol)

Here is what it looks like before I slapped on the ebony wood skin from slickwraps.com. I had a brushed black steel from gadgetwraps.com.

Here is the wooden wrap from slickwraps.com. It's a wrap that goes all around.

And installed.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] M_Woody:
I'm somewhat tempted to p-p-p-pick up a pebble :silly:

For now, I just have an iPod Nano 6g with a fancy-leather-watch strap.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
I was tempted to get one of those things when the straps were kickstarted but the pricy Nano stopped me. Looks great with the color screen and all. But it is basically a mp3 watch.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] jtwebfusion:
Has anyone noticed any issues with nexus 4 running 4.3?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
No issues here. Running the latest PA, 4.3 and also the latest firmware and Pebble app. Well, a few discos maybe once a day when you are out of range for more than 10 mins. I would need to manually reconnect every 1 out of 4 times.
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:
I've been trying to unroot my HOX+ and the ruus aren't working so I tried the manual way deleting SU and relocking using fastboot oem lock as I hut enter it occurred that I didn't have stock recovery. What do I do now? Re-unlock bootloader and find stock recovery? Then do it again? Any help is greatly appreciated.

And when I try to run the normal AT&T update it says "network not ready". I don't even know what that means.
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:
Forgot to say I can't get out of bootloader. It says something when I try to start it up but goes away too quickly to read. Something about a developer Rom I think. But here's an image of what fastboot looks like
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:
In trying to relock bootloader every time I try to get the identifier token and paste and submit it cones back as failed because token was too long. I made sure to do it quite a few times and triple check myself. I can't figure this out.

Ok I'm a complete idiot.... That whole line that says INFO down the left is NOT part of the token. Every time I unlock a bootloader I get stuck on something stupid like this. I hope this works
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:
Got stock Rom back on and unlocked bootloader. I keep trying to flash stick recovery since I can't seem to get the RUUs to work and every time it says cannot load Recovery/recovery.img. Tried with all the kernel/recovery flashers and AIO v2.3. It always does the same thing. Thus is what happens when I try to boot recovery, makes me think there isn't a recovery on here. Not sure what to do.
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
Hi Diesel,

Why you want to restore your phone to its original state? It will help me to better guide you.
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:
Yes I'm looking to go back completely stock out if the box condition. This morning trying to work on it before work I relocked the bootloader and tried to run the RUU again but it didn't work and now the AIO kits aren't unlocking it again. I never could get it to flash any recovery I tried (when the bootloader was UNlocked) .. I'm on AT&T bootloader version 1.32 and software version 1.15. I really need to get thus going so I can sell it.
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
OK that is fine.

First stay of that AIO tool for now. this is the bad side of this kind of tool, when something goes bonk, it is hard to pinpoint where.

First step is to install SDK tool correctly. Look HERE Then once this will be done we will try to restore your phone to its original state. It is important to have the good tools to proceed at first.
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:
I have all the SDK and java files necessary but it looks like you've made it a lot easier to get into. I will definitely set that up when I get home today and get back to you then. I'm not a total noob but only have very basic/beginners knowledge of the subject.
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
That is fine with me, I should be around later tonight. :)
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
So Diesel? Did you managed to run the RUU successfully?
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:
No such luck. I can't get my computer to recognize the phone. Anything I try and do it says device not found

I'm on Windows 8 pro 32bit
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
What type of USB port... front panel or rear panel?
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:
Sorry. Should have said it's a laptop. Netbook to be exact. Acer aspire one
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
If you reboot your phone in bootloader mode and with the USBcable plugged in, open a command window in the platform-tools folder by holding Shift and right clicking in an empty area of this folder select in the contextual menu Open a Command prompt window here.

At the prompt >fastboot devices (Enter)

Did you have your serial number in return? If yes type at the prompt again>fastboot getvar all

Copy/paste the result please don't forget to hide some infos like in the screenshot. Also make sure your phone is plugged in a USB 2.0 port if possible.
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:

[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
Ok you need this RUU HERE.

Once downloaded stay in FASTBOOT MODE at the prompt type>fastboot oem lock let your device do its thing.

Put your phone again in bootloader mode (if needed, Press and Hold Volume Down + press Power)

Plugged in your USB cable and make sure FASTBOOT MODE is highlighted

On your computer run the RUU and follow on-screen instructions.

That should work. Lets see.
[HTC One X+] Diesel321:
To be clear your saying to type fastboot oem lock (which usually relocks bootloader) and then run the RUU given, right?

The bootloader is already relocked and every time I run an RUU it says no device connected. Also that is the RUU I have been trying. Unless I have a bad download or something.

Did the getvar all command make it recognize my device now? Sorry. I always have lots of questions
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
Yes, run the RUU in bootloader mode via Windows.

Ok let me check if I can get an MD5 somewhere to check your download.

EDIT : MD5: 3b951a3195e60712a62a4db6ac181cc7 If you don't know how to check MD5, check my signature.

No getvar tell me exactly what I needed to know about your phone... And I like questions!!! :laugh:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SunSDK:
Hi guys,

Not sure if this is the right section but I have been working on a Nexus 4 accessory myself involving Qi Wireless charging technology but there are alot of aspects which I don't know how to work out (mostly dealing with the electrical part) this device is the future. The idea currently holds a Patent Pending status.

If anyone wants to lend a hand to help make it a reality it would be greatly appreciated I promise its worth the time. If all goes well it could lead up to a kickstarter.

Thanks for reading.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RBarnett09:
Hey guys.

I'm not new to rooting and flashing ROMs, but this RAZR is much different from the phones I'm used to... so I must start off as a noob with this phone. Also, I'm overly used to using Clockwork Mod Recovery and Safestrap is a bit different.

I need to know how to flash ROMs on my XT912 RAZR.

In Clockwork Mod Recovery, I used to wipe data 3x to make sure everything was cleared, wipe cache and then wipe dalvik cache... then flash the ROM.

Is this the same method used or are the steps to install a ROM different for this device?

Thanks.

I hate to ask such a noob question, but I really can't afford to make a mistake. Phones aren't cheap.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TheMrcool212:
Use Safestrap recovery by Hashcode. It is based on TWRP. You can also dual boot roms (or even 3 and 4) on this phone. If you want more advanced or based on CWM, install the Boot Menu Manager in playstore
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RBarnett09:
I'm using Safestrap.

I'm just wondering how to properly flash a ROM with this recovery.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Gus194:
To flash a ROM you have to create a ROM-Slot in "Boot Options" then go to "Install" Then pick your ROM and that's it.

If your coming from another ROM you go to "Wipe" then wipe Dalvik Cache, then Cache then you Wipe System, then you go back and go to "Install" and pick your ROM.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RBarnett09:
Do you recommend I check the zip file signature verification or the force MD5 check on all zips before flashing a ROM?

Or just not check either box and continue with the flash?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Gus194:
Idk, that's up to you. I have those unchecked. I just continue with the flash.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RBarnett09:
I checked both of them and it fails to flash. I just double checked the MD5 and then flashed anyways.

Luckily I'm not regretting anything. Haha.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vnom2112:
I rarely check those when flashing. Though I don't know if it is bad practice or not.

hi.

Is it possible to extract sense and get works on AOSP rom?

just small tips

thanks :cowboy:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
what would be the difference? :D a sense rom is just the aosp version with sense framework etc which we can't use that easy with aosp/aokp/cm10 itself...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] codexc:
i want to found way to extract sense and merge with aokp rom like ICJ to catch best performance with best UI

but it possible to work ? or start testing some way

i see some mods like PureXAudio,My Radio can works with CM why sense not work with it ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BlueSingA:
Sure, when HTC releases all frameworks codes to public, which is going to be never.. and not even then.

Ehm, how is that even an example? Those mods mostly change audio config files more than anything else. But look at it theother way - Why Beats wasn't successfully ported to AOSP/CM yet?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zelendel:
Sense is a closed sourced version of android. It need HTC closed sourced drivers and framework files.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saurabh_goyal93:
I recently hard bricked my phone after flashing CyanogenMod 10. I know that CyanogenMod doesn't even touch the bootloader but somehow I ended up with a very expensive paperweight. But luckily Samsung Care replaced the motherboard in my phone and now my phone is good as new. But that doesn't mean that I'm gonna refrain from flashing or rooting. I've been rooting since 2 years now & this is the first time I've ever hard bricked the phone. But this experience really did scare me. So, to avoid it, in future, I wanna know all about hard brick. So please answer my following questions:

1) What exactly is hard brick?

2) Possible ways in which one could end up with a hard bricked phone? (Mainly SGS3)

3) Possible ways of recovery from hard brick?

Thanks a lot in advance. I want this thread to be a complete source of information to anyone who is new to flashing & needs DO's & DONT's of flashing properly.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
1: You hardbricked your phone if you can't power it on at all. That means no Recovery and no Download mode. No lifesign at all.

A softbrick on the other hand is the situation that your phone powers up but stucks at a certain point and you can`t boot it up to the OS. However Recovery and/or Download Mode is still accessible, so you can flash a ROM, which usually solves the problem.

2: If you screw up the Bootloader. How can you screw up the bootloader? If you flash the bootloader through Odin there is always the chance that during the flash process your OS crashes or you by accident disconnect the USB cable. Although I heard cases where people hardbricked their phones during flashing a ROM through CWM (like in your case). This however doesn't make sense because like you already said most ROMs don't touch the Bootloader, so even if something happens during the flashing process, you should still be able to get at least to Download Mode. So with cases like that I assume that it is a hardware failure of some sort.

3: If you screwed up the bootloader then you can bring your phone back to life by using JTag. There are people who do this for a little money, so if you don't have warranty anymore, this is the way to go because it's a lot cheaper than replacing the mainboard.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saurabh_goyal93:
Thanks a lot

Thanks for such an informative reply. Really appreciate it. :)

I know the symptoms. But what exactly is a hard brick? Hardware is burned out? Software isn't able to communicate with hardware? Like, what happens exactly inside the phone?

How can one screw up during bootloader update/flash? The process takes like 5 seconds!!

Plus Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 doesn't allow flashing of any other device's bootloader.(Yeah yeah, I was about to flash GT-I9305's bootloader on mine by mistake!) Odin stops automatically during flashing. I don't know whether it is a security feature by phone or odin but whatever it is, it ROCKS! :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
The Bootloader is the first thing that is loaded when you power up your phone. If you screw up the bootloader your phone won`t boot up at all. This is caused by the user of the phone, that`s why people say: "Your hardbricked your device".

If your hardware fails to function properly because of whatever reason then it`s not a hardbrick but simply a hardware failure. It is in most cases not caused by the user (except if someone would be dumb enough to overclock CPU/GPU to a ridiculous high level)

Look at the XDA Q&A Threads. There are several cases a day where people have problems flashing something on their phones because Odin fails for some reason. That`s why I would use Odin only when it`s really necessary. When I had my first Smartphone (Samsung Wave) I flashed a lot of stuff on it and one time the flash tool just reported an error and that`s it (bootloader was screwed). I don't know why it failed until this day. So flash a bootloader only if it`s absolutely necessary because this is the most dangerous thing that you can do to your device.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullycompletely:
I hard bricked my phone by rushing to install a new ROM before i had to leave for work. Later when I retraced my steps I realized that I made a stupid and critical mistake. I installed a ROM for a Galaxy S2 onto my Galaxy S3.

The installation appeared to be going smoothly. When it was complete I pressed the "reboot now" button. My phone turned off and never turned back on.

Now the phone has no signs of life. No Power, No Recovery, No download mode, No drivers when I plug it into a computer USB port. The computer does recognize that some kind of USB device is connected to it though. Which is what makes me believe that the phone is not dead and must be repairable.

I've done research and it appears that there are 3 options. (Please let me know if there are more)

Option #1: Pay someone to perform a JTAG repair service.

Option #2: Attempt to boot into recovery using a JIG.

Option #3: Play dumb and return my phone under warranty.

Questions

Option #1: is there a kit you can buy to perform this JTAG repair yourself? I will be more careful in the future but I don't want to be helpless if this ever happens again.

Option #2: I find conflicting advice here. Will this help my phone? eBay sellers warn that a JIG will not help a phone boot into download mode if it doesn't even power on at all. Has anyone attempted this with a phone in the same condition as mine? if so, what was the outcome?

Option #3: The easy way out . But also the defeated unhonest route I would rather avoid. It seems that most people reporting a phone in this condition never explain how they fixed their phone. What do they do?

My phone is still under warranty. Will they be able to detect that I caused the malfunction if I tell a lie that this just happened one day after charging the phone over night?

What do people do when their warranty has expired?

Please let me know how you handled this?

I hope this at least helps someone prevent what I did. Take your time!

I look forward to any advice

[General Topics] Rayan:
I have the MDA2 (which is actually an XDAII QTek 2020 and IMate2) and I can record phone conversations without a problem.

But I think that the voice recorder is actually picking up the other person's voice through the microphone, since I usually get better recordings if I'm on speakerphone mode. :roll: Go figure...

But hey, it works!

Rayan
[General Topics] noviur:
Speakerphone? that would explain why both parties recorded in your case, but the problem is - you not always capable to use speakerphone when you need to record something :(

True, but I have tried to record even without speakerphone and it works too, but the speakerphone has better results though. Try it.

shows up as outlook notes

Whenever I make a recording with my xda I I can pick up both parties no problem. The problem I am having is that when I copy the file to my hard drive it shows up as a note file. The only program I have found that can open it is outlook and it just shows up blank. A friend told me about a free converter on microsoft's website but I forgot what it is called and don't know how to describe it. Thanks.
[General Topics] Rayan:
In that case do the following:

When in a call instead of using the phone's integrated notes application to record a conversation you can start the normal standalone version of notes so while on a call go to Start/Notes and hit the little tape on the bottom and then the record button. This way the recording will be saved as an independent PCM file and not as a note file with the PCM file attached.

Transfer the recording to the pc and voila!

Best regards,

Rayan
