Ok guys.. what i would like to do is get the sound of the himalaya on my car stereo so i can watch a movie with perfect car sound instead of the internal speaker of the himalaya. :D

1st option: An FM Modulator that wil be connected through the 2,5mm jack but the problem here is i have to modify the cradle so the 2,5mm jack will fit.

2nd option: maybe a bluetoothdevice that is connected to the car stereo??

any other option??

i would like some opinions on how to deal with this one..
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Robson:
what i did was used a 2.5 to 3.5 jack converter (got it from hk but should be available elsewhere). then i used a an audio in-out jack (with a 3.5mm jack); plugged it into the now converted 3.5mm xda jack, then plugged the output into the audio input jack of my car stereo and there you go. almost similar to the system used for plugging in your ipod to the car's sound system. i use a bt headset so that takes of the calls. when the phone rings the music stops and the call comes in. butttttt....sometimes the media player doesn't come back on and i have to hit the play button. sure the unit is mounted but it can be a drag sometimes...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] johndope:
do u have some pics?

how did u solve the cradle problem blocking the 2,5mm jack input?

i am so curious!!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Robson:
i'll have to take pics then. but the car mount i use is not officially for an xda unit; i just went and bought one when i was in hk for a business trip. the cradle is basic; clamps on the unit from the sides using those spring-action arms with anti-slip rubber-like material (?). the underside is supported by two stems...giving it the appearance of being a 2-legged fork. the supports are small enough so that they don't block the slot for plugging in the car charger and the microphone jack. the cradle is then supported from the back; which leads to the arm connected to the windshield via a heavy duty suction cup....well so far it hasn't fallen off... :D from there the 2.5 to 3.5 plug converter is around...an inch and half long maybe...the "male" 2.5 end plugs into the xda's "female" jack and at the other end is the "female" plug. the audio input/output connectors are basically similar to your vcr to tv connection; one plugs into the female 3.5 plug (connected to the xda) and the other simply plugs into the car stereo. not complicated at all if you ask me...and you don't really need to have the cradle / holder since you can just leave your unit on one of the shelves under the dash. again, similar to how the ipods are plugged into the car stereo...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] johndope:
ok i have a pretty good idea what it looks like but the problem i have is that my carholder/cradle is blocking the female jack connector so i think im gonna drill out a hole.

i bought me a 2,5 mm jack that i have to solder but the jack itself is too big so now i need an L shaped 2,5mm jack similar to the headphones of the himalaya...

thx for the input m8 (lol) stil a pic would be nice :P

I ordered a Kindle Fire HD 7" from Amazon few days ago. I rooted it by using Qemu tool then I did something wrong in /system/app. After rebooting, I cannot turn on my Kindle and its stuck on the kindle fire screen (Kindle Fire logo appears for a minute then it disappears).

I used a factory cable and put the kindle to fastboot successfully, but the problem is PC doesn't recognize it (windows said "unknown device"). I tried many methods in xda forum but they didn't work anyway. I reinstalled many time and tried in win 32, win 64 bit and even in linux but it still doesn't work.

Are there any solution for me? please help!

I was wondering if Amazon could replace it under warranty ? is it possible?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
I thought I read you only use fast boot cable to get into fast boot, then normal cable to do the rest. See if that helps if not u can always try forcing the driver but idk if that's the best idea since it is saying unknown device instead of driver not found for kindle adb device or something like that.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khoale:
I used fastboot cable to get into fastboot mode and then change to normal cable at you said, but the same situation -- Unknown device and device not found. Please see attached figure.

I am going to say this now, windows 8 doesn't always work to well with us doing things to droid devices, or at least kindles, mainly because of drivers.

Also adb commands don't work in fast boot mode, a command u would want to try is fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product

It should return something about Tate.

I installed Xposed Installer and rebooted and now:

Now my pc

Is not recognizing with adb

In device manager it shows that it is a portable device.

Take a look at the photo.

I do not have a factor cable either :(

I have chameleon rom

I can get to the lockscreen but no further than that
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
If you have a ROM installed then it should be a easy fix, reboot into recovery and remove the exposed framework from an adb shell, if an adb device is not present in the device manager while in recovery but a portable device is, uninstall it and let it search for new devices and it should pick it up.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bboy_201:

I attempted to use TWRP to reset the device and once it rebooted, the orange KINDLE FIRE HD screen will appear for a second, then the screen goes black, the the image appears again and then then screen goes black without end. Hard reset doesn't work. I tried pushing adb commands through but i get "waiting on device" and nothing else. Device manager doesn't recognize device either, it doesn't even appear on the device manager when I plug it in. Any ideas? I know I'm out. Based on other threads, I don't think that the factory cable will work either, although I don't currently have one even if it would. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsteve01:
Flashed Speed Rom last night and am getting a wifi error. of course all benefit of the rom is negated because battery life sucks when the phone is constantly trying to acquire a connection. i read somwhere that potentially flashing faux kernel would help, but I'm s on and not certain I can flash kernels effectively out of TWRP. Any help will be greatly appreciated. And just so you know, there is one thread mentioning the kernel fix but no response from the op as to whether it worked. Is this Rom still supported? Perhaps I just need to go another direction
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Well speed rom definitely has no problems like that. I think it's because of your recovery and being s on. When you're s on I don't think recoveries will flash. You should switch to 4ext since the smart flash option lets you override s on. But I highly recommend s off though. Speed Rom isn't supported anymore anyway by Eclipze so that's likely why you didn't get your answer.

When you flashed, did you wipe everything?

Did you flash a kernel after you flashed speed rom? It probably gave you an error since you're s on.

So what I'd do is either go s off (recommended), or just get 4ext. How about both? If you get 4ext then your backups won't work since they aren't compatible. And also enable smartflash so you can flash custom kernels while s on.

Also be sure to check out my rom I made (Kaioken Rom) in the development section. :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsteve01:
I didn't flash a kernel. Extreme noob so not sure how to go about s off. I assume if I go with 4ext: all need to flash back to stock first so I can make a new recovery prior to flashing a rom. How's battery life on your rom
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsteve01:
also if I flash 4ext using Hanson's toolkit will I need to delete twrp or will it give me a choice of which recovery to boot to
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
The battery life on my rom is excellent so far. It's even better than speed ROM's battery even though my rom has faux 24 built in and over clocked. I haven't even under clocked yet!

What you should do is go to the general section and read the guide that aj made, there is also hasoons toolkit I'm the development section so you can flash 4ext with that. That's a very easy way.

Once you flash 4ext, make sure you enable smartflash. On twrp you can't flash kernels while s on, that's why people think 4ext is superior.

If you didn't flash a kernel then being s on probably caused the problem if speed rom has a custom kernel. S on blocks the custom kernel, so smartflash and s off fix that problem. :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsteve01:
If I want to install 4ext via hansoons toolkit do I delete twrp or how do I establish which covert to use? Also I thought if I used the toolkit I'd be perm rot but after runner ng root checker last night there is a problem with my root. Is that all related to being s onn and what is son vs s off in layman's terms?
[HTC Amaze 4G] berralac:
Regarding this WiFi calling, can one turn it off after installing. I only want it when I have no regular cell signal.
[HTC Amaze 4G] pbergonzi:
toolkit

When you flash a new recovery, the recovery your phone already had is replaced with the new recovery, so you do not have to delete anything, as it is done automatically.

Done properly you can easily have perm root without S-Off.

Try this newer toolkit instead--I think it also explains how to flash a different recovery, such as 4EXT:

In the ROM I use, Android Revolution HD 5, in the network settings wifi calling can be disabled as easily as clicking a check box like other settings that toggle. I suspect that's the case with any ROM.
[HTC Amaze 4G] berralac:
Thanks. I have looked everywhere I an think of, but no toggle. It was there in the stock ROM. When I click on the "with fi calling ready" notification it takes me to the network settings, but there are none. Is there perhaps a way to just uninstall this zip?

I had the same question so i set to answer it myself.

I installed a free anti virus one of the best,, AVG/Avast was it? I cant remember. I then went and pulled out a keylogger version of swiftkey. What it does is it send everything i type passwords and all to a remote server.

I scanned the apk and i scanned the folder it was installed to and then scanned the entire phone.

It was deemed clean and safe.

The hack to insert the keylogger code is easy to reproduce and doesnt mar the app's digital signature. It was malicious but could nt be caught.

I uninstalled the "anti virus" and went on with my life.

I know and understand that you most probably won't ever feel the need of an antivirus from normal usage of your mobile device, but the numbers show all over the place that there is an epidemic of malware on android, just check the following articles, some of them may be biased since they are coming from a an antivirus seller, but there is no denying that the threat exists and if you care about your privacy, having a basic antivirus/antimalware, app permission control and the use of some sort of anonymity protection (OpenVPN, TOR, etc) is a necessity to avoid having your data put on the internet by every free game or stupid free app out there.
