the use is..... here in my country (and many others) when you go to the mall or a coffe shop.... people with bluetooth keep scanning for other mobiles to bluejack or send you files and such... so when they try to scan whenever they get to your phone their phone will switch off......... so you can use it so no nokia phone can bluejack your phone!

it works on nokia based on symbian OSs and you can put this code in any other phone with bluetooth support and it will switch off nokia phones....

so far i have tested on

nokia 6630 switched off

nokia 6600 switched off

nokia 7610 switched off

sonyericsson t68i sonyerricsson is not effected by the code

i believe it's a bug on nokia based on symbain OSs

one of the applications is "bible with you" which gives you a pdb file specific to the owner name you provide at the time of purchase.

[Ouya General] DroidXero:
No, that's not a euphemism ;)

My OUYA controller's L2/R2 triggers seemed a little stiff, like there was some unnecessary friction coming from somewhere. Not sure if anyone else has this same 'issue', but here's what I done to solve it...

- Dismantle the controller (seriously easy, 6 Philips screws under the faceplates and then just lift the 2 halves apart from each other)

- On the rear of the main PCB, you'll see the mount brackets and springs for the triggers. They seem to operate using some kind of latch system, and it's that latch brushing against the bracket that was causing the friction. (pull the trigger, you'll see it move)

- The scientific bit: squirt a blob of WD40 (or any spray oil-based lubricant) onto the bracket at the point where you can see the 'latch' move when you pull on the trigger.

- I also used some WD40 on a lint-free cloth to grease the spring itself, and the 'arms' on the actual trigger button (use a plastic opening tool to pry it away from the bracket).

After this, much less friction on the L2/R2 triggers, also eliminates that faint 'grinding' sound if you pull on the triggers ever so slowly. Much more 'fluid' feeling.

Not sure if this is of any use to anyone, figured I'd post it on the off chance it helps someone out. Also I have no idea how long this workaround will last before you have to do it again.
[Ouya General] gianptune:
I'm pretty sure regular WD40 isn't actually a lubricant. When you use it on plastics, it dries up in a few days and you're back to where you were to begin with. You may have longer lasting results with silicon spray lubricant. The WD40 website says don't use it on polycarbonite plastic. http://wd40.com/faqs/#a98 I think injection molded plastic is polycarbonite?
[Ouya General] TadeoNYC:
I'm fairly certain WD40 is a solvent. The WD is for water displacement. I've done quite a bit of work on bungalows built on stilts. When power tools would get dropped we'd immediately rinse them with fresh water and then spray WD40 in until they were saturated. Let them dry out overnight and they usually would work again. Of course they were still affected and burned out more quickly.
[Ouya General] DroidXero:
Thanks for the info guys. May well try and get my hands on a silicone-based spray.

Where I'm from we have 2 very simple DIY rules:

- Does it move? Yes. Should it? No. Duct tape.

- Does it move? No. Should it? Yes. WD40!

:)
[Ouya General] dyniper:
I posted that to Reddit a little bit ago:

How to make trigger buttons smooth as butter:

The problem is that there is no grease on the plastic-on-plastic movement of the triggers. I did that for both my controllers (maybe I should have made a video...):

Remove the 2 face plates and batteries

Remove the 6 screws of the controller and open it up

Get yourself non conducting grease (search Amazon for dielectric grease)

Apply one small dot of grease at all these areas (look at attached picture) (basically everywhere plastic slides on plastic)

Action the trigger many times to distribute the grease

Re-assemble the controller, and enjoy stick-free triggers.

I really wish Ouya would have done that first-hand. It is a very easy thing to fix that would not have cost them much... Hope that helps!
[Ouya General] modder420:
Petroleum jelly is what i used
[Ouya General] DroidXero:
Now there's an idea, didn't think of that. Although, my WD40 method is still working a treat.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alijee:
The Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE-A edition with the Snapdragon

800 chip inside is understandable getting the attention of

all benchmark-loving geeks. The smartphone was already

put through its paces in a couple of benchmarks last week,

but today, another batch of benchmarks has surfaced

showing what the Adreno 320 GPU is capable of.

The benchmarks that were used are GFX Bench 2.7, Epic

Citadel, AnTuTu 3D, and 3DMark benchmark, The Wi-Fi

adapter in the phone was put through some testing as well

to see if supports higher speeds than its Snapdragon 600

and Octa variations.

But now onto the benchmark scores, which were provided as

screenshots of chart tables. However, we’ve converted them

to our trusty benchmark graphs.

Starting off with the AnTuTu 3D Rating benchmark, the

Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE-A is the definite winner among

Android smartphones, but is far behind the iPhone 5, which

scores north of 13000 points. That’s unsurprising though, as

the first run is of the actual resolution of the respective

smartphone. Since the iPhone 5′s resolution is much lower

than the one of the Galaxy S4, it’s normal for Apple’s

smartphone to take that one.

Higher is better

Sort by Label Sort by Value

13671 Apple iPhone 5

9465 Samsung Galaxy S4 (LTE-A)

7587 Samsung Galaxy S4 (Octa)

6984 Vega IRON

5929 Nexus 4

5632 LG Optimus G

1661 LG Optimus 4X HD

However, when it comes to offscreen benchmarking, the

Adreno 320 takes the lead of the iPhone 5, but still loses

to the Octa version of the Galaxy S4.

Higher is better

Sort by Label Sort by Value

2781 Samsung Galaxy S4 (Octa)

2366 Samsung Galaxy Note II

6984 Vega IRON

2084 Vega N6

2062 Samsung Galaxy S3

2036 Vega R3

1974 HTC One X+

Moving onto the 3DMark benchmark test, the Galaxy S4 is

on top with 17075 points for the graphics score on the

“Icestorm Detail” level.

Higher is better

17075 Samsung Galaxy S4 (LTE-A)

12628 Vega IRON

10647 Samsung Galaxy S4 (LTE-A)

11439 Google Nexus 4

9400 LG Optimus G PRO

Lastly, there’s Epic Citadel. There, the Galaxy S4 LTE-A falls

behind the Galaxy S4 Octa yet again, but it’s more to do

with the fact that the benchmark runs onscreen and the

devices hit the 60 fps limit of their displays.

High er is better

53 . 9 Nexus 4

53 . 4 Asus Padfone 2

52 . 6 LG Optimus G

41 . 3 Samsung Galaxy S III

38 . 6 Oppo Find 5

And finally, we get on to the Wi-Fi Bandwidth test. The

Galaxy S4 LTE-A sits on top scoring 80392 points on the

5GHz band and 46411 on the 2.4GHz band. The Octa core

variety gets 76739 points and 45492 points on the 5GHz

and 2.4GHz band, respectively.

wheres the default normal I9505 (Snapdragon 600) scores?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plasmastate:
Quoted from GSM arena

"As you can clearly see, the Snapdragon 800 wipes the floor with both the*Samsung Galaxy S4 Exynos 5 Octa*andGalaxy S4 Snapdragon 600. In AnTuTu the difference between the scores is 3701 points, or just over 14% while in Quadrant it's more substantial at nearly 50%. Owners of the Octa and Snapdragon 600 versions of the phone*might feel a bit off*at this point"
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beefheart:
Why? Because an updated phone has a higher GPU score in a benchmark that won't be seen in everyday use throughout the entire lifetime of any of the three phones? Er....no. I'm happy with my GS4 and that isn't going to change because an updated model has been released two months after I purchased it.

Some people really need to get a grip and break this stupid obsession with benchmark scores. Once you get beyond a certain score they're nothing but numbers.

I don't agree with that, i used a galaxy s3 and compared to the i9505 it is so much faster.

Hello do you know the price of the s4 LTE.A

Its about $900. For that our snap600 its better... :beer:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plasmastate:
We all can try our best to justify our purchase of i9500 and i9505 but nothing can change the fact that the lteA variant is faster, battery efficient, has quick charge like s600, has low power voice command for wakeup, has significantly better gpu, native 4k playback, 4k video recording etc.

But we have to keep in mind that all this won't make our s4 any worse or better, it is still running the way it was.

The only thing I am disappointed with is the octacores poor optimisation and a half baked silicon for big.little. I dont care if the snap 800 is faster or not but the octacore has alot of potential. Only if it was optimized better!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noideaforusername:
It doesn't have any of the bolded parts. The only thing is better at is the GPU power and efficiency. That's all.

Don't forget that it costs about 100$ to 150$ more than the regular S4 so even if I have the option to peek the LTE-A variant 1.5 months ago I wouldn't cause it doesn't deserve the 100$ difference.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] racerex:
You're incorrect. The chipset in the GS4 LTE-A does support 4k encode/decode. The MSM8974 is the first hardware from Qualcomm that supports that feature. Whether or not Samsung will enable it is another question but I am betting they will eventually through a software update.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noideaforusername:
Never said the chipset doesn't support it. Just the fact that it won't be used since the camera sensor doesn't support this.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thekoRngear:
May be the camera sensor wont support it but how about outputting the 4k encoded video files through the video player mate?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noideaforusername:
From where did you get the 4k videos and why would you want to do so? The display is FHD so you could take the FHD version of the Video/Series you want to watch... Don't forget that 4k videos are 4 times the size of a FHD videos so you probably won't be even possibly place 4k video inside your device ;)

If you meant through a 4k TV monitor, then yes it'll be an advantage which very few people will be able to use.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thekoRngear:
Hmm. I got Elysium trailer. A 2min video sized 416 or so MB. My S3 has 720p display. But did the technology stop there? The CPU/GPU is capable of rendering a 1080p video via video player. And since snapdragon 800 can decode/output 4k videos the first thing I will be curious (if I had the LTE A) whether or not the S4 LTE A could play that out. I can make it to smaller whatever size (1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p) I want but that isnt my point.

If there is certain restriction that all the current gen 1080p SAMOLED/SLCDs are unable to output UHD contents that I am unaware of, then pardon me for wanting it. 4k videos though really rare till now. People rather watch the 1080p videos Sourced straight from 4k original like Amazing Spider Man.

Also, the making sense of outputting such high resolution stuffs off a comparatively small screen like 5"+1080p could be another question. But since the GPU has it, why not try it? :p

Amen to that.

Just tried a 4k video using mxplayer with all possible settings on my i9500 for the sake of fun. It struggles and plays at almost half the normal speed lol. I am curious to find out how the snap800s handle such video.

(Not that it is useful in real time, atleast not for me but yeah)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Narenji89:
MX Player uses sw decoder for 4k video playback and unfortunately it uses low power(little) CPUs. My i9500 can't even play 1080p videos correctly by sw decoder in MX player cause of wrong processing priority which is kernel related while nexus4 can handle that without problem

I think A15 CPUs can handle 4k playback with no problems:cool:

Agree , every version of this phone launched have its pros and cons . even in the same hardware field , which is really not noticeable at all in real life use. every version is fast , snappy and can handle 1080p contents just well . just lets hope we get proper optimization for our devices that should be our main worry
