Hello guys,

I'm a Visual Basic developer. who doesn't believe in myself enough to learn a new language.

I've heard some pretty cool stuff about Mono for Ubuntu/Linux and how it can be used together with VB.Net to create working programs, but I was wondering if there is something similar for Android. I've heard about Mono for Android, but also that it only works with C-ported languages, like C#.

Any help on this matter would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

P.S. Note: This

is

a Q&A forum, so don't start moaning!

Hey guys

I just got the otterbox defender for my S3 w/ holster

Is it me or is it a pain to take out and put back the phone into the holster...?

I don't trust that plastic piece to last forever...

Any tips or tricks?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] equlizer:
No issues here and i've had mine since they came out. Sometimes it doesn't click and you have to jiggle it to go in. I have my phone face down and my camera on the right.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] alerioslo:
don't buy it

Defender series is a plastic shield surrounded by a silicon case. also has a belt clip. the problem with defender series for galaxy s3 is the silicon case, it deforms apparently because of heating. I have one, Otter Box has sent me replacement twice, now have the third one, same issue. pretty ugly when silicon case expands losing the shape.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ted A:
How often do you take the silicone off and on in a week/month?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] alerioslo:
The first one I did it very often. I think between 5 and 10 times a month. The second one. I did it once a month for cleaning. Taking care of not forcing it. Same results. It was 3 months since new to warranty replacement. Has been a month since last replacement sent by otter box. I had never take out this silicone case, the same issue is reappearing.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] burntrat:
the silicone sucks. i rarely take my case off and it spreads at the corners. i think its from using the holster. the corners that make contact with the holster has a bigger gap. they should've use a different material that's more rubbery.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] MiG8GT:
If your silicone is stretching or not conforming to the corners correctly, boil it in water for 2 minutes or so... Should tighten it back up for a little while.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] burntrat:
sounds like a temp fix. otterbox should've used different material or a better design from the start.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] MiG8GT:
I agree, they should of used a better product to prevent this annoyance. Anyone else have issues with the clips breaking that hold the plastic portion of the case together?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] alerioslo:
The holster isn't the reason for the corner gaps. I never used the holster within 3 warranty replacements for the same issue.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] burntrat:
Yeah it's not the main reason, but I noticed the sides that do make contact with the holster has a bigger gap.

can I adjust the bandswitch by using bandswitch tool if I use the WM 2003. Thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Biso007:
it all depends on the device type and the RSU version.

Devices of type A work on 900/1800 MHz, and type B work on 900/1900 MHz, and the best way is to do it from the boot loader GSM menu.

For the RSU, some do this automatically like the A30, and some requires ROM adjusting like 6.25.02

So is there a downloadable kdz for v20d on p769? If not why not
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] rbraswell8:
there isn't one, and no one knows exactly why at the moment. perhaps it's because they figured out how we were rooting the phone and are locking down the kdz so we can't do it. Also, the full kdz would probably come with the ability to unlock the bootloader, and t-mobile certainly doesn't want that.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpluginspace:
Hello,

This started about a month ago when my GSM i9250 Galaxy Nexus began not charging enough to reset the battery graph and has progressed to not charging past 0%. When OFF the charge icon will show up and the charging animation will appear when the power button is pressed. The animation shows empty all the time, I have left it off and charging for 40+ hours with no change. When ON it will show as charging for a short period (30sec to 10min) of time then either show as not charging or ask to be plugged in. Sometimes it will work (turn on) for short periods before dying. I have tried multiple cords, chargers, computers (as chargers), batteries all with no effect. Currently running stock ROM rooted and twrp2. Any thoughts, suggestions or questions welcomed.

Thank you

PS. I ask this after much searching here and on Google, if I have failed to find an obvious fix please proved a link or suggested search phrase.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AayBedi:
Maybe your charging pins in the usb port got some dust, actually yesterday the same happened to me, but now i've used a needle to clean off the dust from the usb port and tried to push that metallictab present in the port downwards, now it has helped me. Try this and if it didn't work, then it MAY be a hardware issue.

I'm not an expert, just you my experience of this prob :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpluginspace:
Thanks, I will give that a try though I doubt it will make much difference as mine will not acknowledge a battery charged on an external charger.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpluginspace:
OK, alcohol swab over shaved chopstick, no change. I followed with 2000 grit sandpaper and another alcohol swab still no change. Any other ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpluginspace:
Found an app than shows in phone/circuit voltage and reported charge percentage.

Shown as they come off of an external charger.

Battery_________mV_________%

Original 3647 0

Replacement 3673 0

These both look to be within normal limits for voltage,anyone have a clue, guess or hail-marry maybe as to what would make the charging system react as though both of these batteries were dead?

Thanks

PS. I have seen mention of a Clockworkmod charging bug and it is always followed with a "just search for it", I have searched both here and on Google and have not found anything. If someone could describe the cause, symptoms and a fix for this or provide a link to a description I will happily make a Wiki entry for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpluginspace:
Today I wiped and formatted everything that had a button in twrp2 and reinstalled stock ROM (takju-jdq39) via the Nexus Root Kit and the phone charged to 14% before it stopped charging. It is turned off now still plugged in, hopefully I will wake to a fully charged phone tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpluginspace:
Little more info and more questions.

After messing with this over the week I now have 17% battery and some more questions. I tried playing with SL4A to access the system and got some confusing results.

batteryCheckPresent() = False
batteryGetHealth() = 2 - good
batteryGetLevel() = 17%
batteryGetPlugType() = 2 - power source is a USB port
batteryGetStatus() = 4 - not charging
batteryGetTechnology() = 'Li-ion'
batteryGetTemperature() = 290
batteryGetVoltage() = 3733mV

Can anyone posit a situation with a phone having a battery in good condition, at17% charge and attached to a charger where charging would not be the thing to do?

What is the deal with 'batteryCheckPresent() = False', has anyone used SL4A and seen this? Anyone willing to try, I will pass along the code, just install SL4A, PythonForAndroid, and run the script, report findings.

Again any thoughts, suggestions or questions welcomed.

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AayBedi:
I just cleaned off the stuffs, dont let any sort of moisture come into the female port, if it helps, then well n good, else the delicate pins have got a bit damaged/out of position, I will rather say go to an expert and get it checked :D

After multiple chargers, batteries, charging sub-boards and trip threw a re-flow oven it has been diagnosed as a bad power control chip. I hope that someone can benefit from this experience.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] elementlaxer:
As the title says, is it a bad idea to wait around for the 32gb S4 if I want to be able to flash a custom recovery and install custom ROMs? I've had my SII since release day and I've found that the 16GB internal storage is manageable, but leaves me constantly having to decide which apps are really worth keeping/constantly having to dig through files to clean up unnecessary files. With the S4 being so much less than a full 16GB I feel like this struggle for storage will be a constant annoyance. Is it a huge gamble to wait around for a 32gb version? Is it likely that AT&T will blacklist the current software preventing me from flashing back to an unlockable bootloader? I guess I'm also wondering how many people are in the same boat as me and if anybody has any inside information?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] robosiris:
I'm not sure if it's a bad idea for you to wait, but I say yes. I got the S4 16gb model, with a class 10 32gb memory card. I'm happy with it. You can always increase the memory by purchasing a 32gb or 64gb memory card. Just know, the 128gb mem card is around the corner. Also, the SG S5 will most likely be available next year around this time, and able to handle a 128gb memory card. So you can wait or just the S4 that's available now and be done with it.

And I know it's likely a fluke, but I watched my younger brother crack his Note 2's screen after it fell off of his lap about 6 inches and cracked hitting a grass field.

Cloud is only your friend when you have unlimited data and your not an audiophile...I would use up my 3gb data plan in a day if relied on the cloud...I only listen to high quality audio files nothing ender 320kbps but usually flac or occasionally wav...I have some music files that are over 800mbs (mixes) listen to that mix four times and my data is done...so in my case cloud is the enemy as it seems to be taking away sd cards from many phones

Ok...and to the op, I would wait until the day the unlock process is released...if still no word on the 32gb than get the 16gb. My reasoning behind this is you have nothing to worry about until the unlock process is released. Once its released than you have to start worrying about it because thats when they start working on a patch
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] twanskys204:

And yes I have the hypyeron or what ever its called.. its pritty nice
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] elementlaxer:
I have unlimited data grandfathered in so that isn't a big issue for me. I tend to keep my audiophile qualities confined to my computer as that's where all my FLAC is stored. I mostly use my phone's music for the car which doesn't have a premium sound system so I can deal with lower quality streamed music.

My biggest concern with the wait was in fact a bootloader patch so it sounds like I have nothing to worry about. I'm impatient so I was almost hoping somebody would talk me into just going out and buying one now :D but I highly doubt I'll regret waiting for a higher capacity S4. Thanks for the advice.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ChronoReverse:
Just put your music on the SD card?

The partitions in the GS4 are jiggled so that there's a lot more allocated for apps. It'll be tough to fill it up with apps as long as you put your music and videos on the microSD card.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] rushless:
I respectfully do not call something such as the cloud that requires data use (2GB data caps), drains more battery and requires a data connection always to use, a "friend". As an option, sure, but if choosing that over local storage, the cloud is more like a distant acquaintance you never really liked, but are stuck with them on a bus ride and can not escape from them ;)

BTW, the actual usable storage ranges from 8 to 9gb and not 10. You need to leave about 500mb free so apps can update. If you are a gamer, or use large data file apps, the 8gb (aka 16gb) version is a poor choice. A 32GB S3 is a much better option, IMO. 18gb more free app storage and no annoying cloud tagging along on a bus ride.

This is worrisome stuff - it may not affect those of you with a device right now but if it ends up being enacted across the board, you better hope that you never break it.

This is the first time I've seen this implemented on the kernel level. It is by far the most effective way to prevent root as it keeps you from being able to switch to the root user. Without the ability to do that, all software exploits are worthless. And good luck exploiting the kernel itself.

Do they do this with a firmware upgrade? If so, would avoiding any OTA updates and only flashing Modded ROM's be a way to avoid it?

I would assume yes.. and once youre rooted, you dont gotta worry about OTAs anyways....

OP suggested in another thread that this can be an issue if god forbid you need a replacement device..

I then stated that if we saved the backtostock file for the current firmware, this could possibly be avoided by flashing it through odin on a new device, but if samsung doesnt allow that by some means, were screwed
