Does anyone have the pinout for the headset jack on the JAM? I am soldering up a custom headset and didn't want to start guessing....

A schematic or picture would be great.

Thanks in advance,

mix
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Xplod:
вот
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] dacmo:
So correct me if I'm wrong but based on the schematic this would be the wiring sequence on your pins.

1. Left

2. Right

3. Ground

4. Mic
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] snorlax:
I'd say :

1. Left

2. Right

3. Mic

4. Ground

instead, no ???
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] dacmo:
Yup... that's correct. Re-reading the diagram, I made a mistake on my first post. Thanks.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Xplod:
The circuit checked up and correct
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] sarasasasa:
Xplod thank you very much for your schema!

i'll try to make my headset myself when i find the time.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landeiro:
Everyone knows that Open GL 3 will be supported by Android 4.3. The Galaxy Note 2 for now not support. Most smartphones do not support. Some examples of how PowerVR5 GPU does not support. (Iphone, S4 Octa Core). My question is whether in the future the Note 2 will have some implementation support. The game Asplhat 8 is Open GL ES 3.0. I believe it will run with a loss of some effects. And what is the future for our Note 2 in games? Already obsolete? I play all fine.

"There are quite a few mobiles that have advanced graphics hardware that support OpenGL ES 3.0

Mobiles that support OpenGL ES 3.0

There are no mobiles yet that support OpenGL ES 3.0 but below mobiles are expected to have support for OpenGL ES 3.0

Google Nexus 4

Apple iPhone 6

Samsung Galaxy S4 4G

Mobiles that do not support OpenGL ES 3.0

I have listed recent powerful mobiles that do not support OpenGL ES 3.0 so you get the clarity and no confusions

All mobiles that have been released before January 2013 did not support OpenGL ES 3.0 – they don’t have multiple instance support, compressed textures etc..

Samsung Galaxy SIII, SII, S and older mobiles of Samsung did not support OpenGL ES 3.0

Samsung Galaxy Note (GT-N7000) and Samsung Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100)

iPhone – 5 and lower versions did not support OpenGL ES 3.0; but it supports OpenGL ES 2.0. (iPhone 3 second Gen onwards (ie, iPhone 3 second gen, iPhone 4 and iPhone 5) OpenGL ES 2.0 support has been added).

All BlackBerries released before April 2013 did not support OpenGLES 3.0.

All window 7.5 Mobiles do not support OpenGL ES 3.0

Windows 8.0 Mobiles released before March 2013 did not support the same."

Google has added the support for OpenGL ES 3.0 yes.. But it can't just add something and leave the old things while it and the developers knows exactly how many millions of people use android on different devices.. They will not just make a game for one device or two .. They will try to support every device.. For the next 2 years, OpenGL ES3 won't be the main focus for developers .. After that most of the people would have a device that support OpenGL ES 3 .. In other words its not just a complete change in one day.. Its a Change overtime without the ordinary person even noticing .. And that's important for Google and developers..

The thread is interesting .. :D

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _delice_doluca_:
They will do their best both for benefiting from the OpenGL 3.0 and not leaving the unsupporting devices behind. The best proof for that Google still keeps "Force GPU rendering" and "Disabling hardware layers" optional since Gingerbread.

If they were like Microsoft they would just tell everyone "hey you people with low GPU phones, we are cutting you off because from now on every new Android version will force GPU rendering for creating the screen no matter the app or commands say!!" Microsoft leaved every WP 7.x phone behind to make a jump for WP 8.. Bu Google did not leave anyone behind and left things optional. Novadays game makers design their games to measure your device's power (mostly the chipset brand unfortunately) and run as much effect as it could handle. So basicly neither Google nor developers/app creators leaving anyone behind.

And I am sure on the 720p screen category Note 2 is still one of the most powerfull devices to leave behind. Everything will still be smooth with a little beith sacrofise of the effects in the future :)
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] birth1mark:
Hello all

I have a Xperia Tablet Z with 10.1.1.A.1.253. Tried all methods around here but no success in installing Root or CWM. Usually getting remote command no allowed. Any ideas?

Yes i looked all around the forum and I googled it, but no method seem's to work for me.

Bootloader unlocked(factory)

Thanks in advance
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shangrila500:
What version is your tablet?
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cat McGowan:
Update your SGP321 to 10.1.1.A.1.307, then root using DooMLoRD's XTZ Easy Rooting Toolkit.

Are you sure ADB drivers are properly installed and working on your computer?
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoobTW:
Is that SPG312 or SPG321?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmiland:
Hi all, i bought the tab 3 10.1 yesterday, and was wondering where the multi user function is, that where introduced in 4.2.2?

Did Samsung deactivate this?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcdona922:
Hi guys

I'm pretty new to the XZ and just wanted to clarify something before I go ahead and flash a ROM.

I have backed up my TA Partition using TA-Backup Tool and have rooted my device.

I am about to install Recovery and Unlock the bootloader, all pretty straight forward from what I've read so far :laugh:

My only question so far is, if / when I want to relock the bootloader can I simply do this using the "restore" option within TA-Backup Tool (providing I am on a Stock ROM), or do I need to Relock using Flashtool and then restore the TA partition?

Thanks

G
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maddhouse:
Just use ta backup to relock that will flash the ta partition you have backed up to a unlocked status with drm keys
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcdona922:
Brilliant!! I'm assuming I can still do this even if the stock ROM has a Recovery such as CWM on it?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maddhouse:
Yes but you need to remember what state you backed your phone's ta up with otherwise m5 key won't match
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdunn700:
xperia z

hello what is a m5 key also im wondering how to get back to stock as i have unlocked bootloader on cyanogenmod 11 but i do wish to go back to stock only if the bravia engine and all features work. i have backed up my drm keys just need to figure out how do i restore and what process cant find anything on it

thanks
[Shield Q&A] Raptor5150:
Anyone got a copy of that? With a shield the app that launches when you hit the shield button I need that exact app.

Looking to try spoofing tegra in my nexus 4 to try streaming with a normal controller :D

Thanks!
[Shield Q&A] LiamHing:
I hope someone makes this happen, due to it streaming I can't see hardware being a limitation.
[Shield Q&A] :
It could be like the Ouya framework though... Dependent on the actual device.
[Shield Q&A] Amanoo:
I sure hope someone will be able to release the APK. I would be interested in using it on my Galaxy S3.
[Shield Q&A] Furyus:
It's not the same as the TegraZone already on the Play store?
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
No, it is not. And while I can't speak too much about it, it's not just a side-load onto any device. So don't be holding your breath about someone uploading the APK and getting all the features running this week.
[Shield Q&A] :
right....because it sooo hard to make rudimentary changes to a launcher.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
The APK is called Dashboard.apk. It resides in /system/app and can be launched as a normal app.
[Shield Q&A] :
?? Then why did you say the opposite not 2 posts ago?
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
Let me know when you get this working, since you love trolling. One of us has been helping everyone to the largest extent they can. The other is just demanding a bunch of stuff since he doesn't want to buy one himself.

I will personally post the full system image tonight if it isn't already uploaded by then. And you can go to town, I'm seriously curious about how much you can get working this week, since its obviously so easy.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
It won't do anything. It will crash on another device.
[Shield Q&A] :
You're the one going around posting false information. And asking for a system dump is not "demanding a bunch of stuff".

If you want to get into a pissing match about who's done more to help the XDA community, you're gonna lose. I've done alot more than post some roms for the EVO 3D. If anyone's a troll here its you.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
And 20x more people have found my comments helpful. So you're still trolling. What false info have I given?
[Shield Q&A] :
Unlike you i'm not a thanks whore, and the thanks meter wasn't even implemented when I started posting on XDA. I have released numerous firmware images and sbf files that would otherwise have not been obtainable, saving countless devices in the process(See the technician only Xoom recovery file that was the only way to restore a bricked Xoom for months after release). That's a little more important to me than some likes.

Oh and False info? You just said not a few moments ago it runs like a normal app.
[Shield Q&A] poo-tang:
Now now boys, calm down.

I must admit I am on legions side on most of his points so far. This is a community forum for the general public and what we do here is Share and Mod. I do believe "agrabren" that as you are part of the Nvidia team you don't want to see parts of your product ported and such, but the product is now in the hands of the user and so now it is up to us what we do with our purchases.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
It didn't occur to me that I might need to explain that in more detail, but in hind-sight, it does need clarification. What I mean, and meant from the beginning, is that the framework doesn't issue any "magic" to launch that app. There's no special "back-door" entry into that APK which makes it work on the device, nor is the Intent anyway modified. My natural instinct is to distrust every aspect of a system app that doesn't sideload correctly. In this case, I gave extra insight into areas of attack on getting the APK to load on other devices by eliminating one method a company could use for an app that has a special method of launch (the center button on the device).

So my statement, properly clarified, is that the APK itself has nothing special about it in regards to Intent launching or its AndroidManifest.xml, but that without some efforts with other components, will not run directly on another device, especially one based on a non-Tegra device.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
Great, except I've actually been trying to help most people with most parts of ROM sharing and modding. I've already said that I'm going to post the OTA1 system and boot images, in their official entirety, as well as I'll probably post a rooted version as well. I've been helping people prevent bricking their devices.

If you'd rather I just go away, I'm happy to. But I wouldn't expect anyone else from NVIDIA to be reaching out to get CM10.2 up and running on this device, or to get a custom recovery up and running quickly. I've never objected to him getting the system image, I'm all for it being uploaded and even promised to do so. I'm trying to help clarify what will work easily and what won't. I even answered the question that nobody else had, the APK he's asking for (because he didn't know the name of it) is Dashboard.apk, and it resides in /system/app. His contributions right now to the SHIELD forums on XDA are: Give me the system image, give me some APKs that may be on the device! That rubs me the wrong way as a person who has spent plenty of time developing ROMs for different phones, helping fix kernels for multiple CM-supported devices, and who has *always* fought for companies to give to the community. Unlockable bootloader? Yeah, I was part of that push. I'm trying my best to get as much source as possible made public.

Maybe I came off poorly in this thread (because this was after the thread asking for an apk that has only been demoed at tradeshows and special press meetings). So I'm sorry if I came off wrong, but while everyone else is helping each other out, he's just demanding stuff.
[Shield Q&A] :
I what world do you live in that posting a thread asking for a system image and a possibly pre-loaded app qualifies as "demanding stuff"? Why should I have to have done anything to be worthy of your approval to post such a thread?

There is a huge conflict of interest with you both working for Nvidia and unofficially releasing official firmware and hacks, so frankly no, I don't trust you being involved in this devices xda development.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
So a guy who doesn't own the device is not going to trust ROMs I make for a device he doesn't own. Oops, no loss to me. You can go back to trolling, I'm done with your thread. You have your system image and boot image in either manner you want it.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
Oops, my bad. It wasn't your thread, you just came into this thread to troll me. My mistake.

Raptor, if you check in the Android Development section, you'll find the system images. I'd suggest the ZIP version, because it's both smaller and already extracted. The system.img is an uncompress image to be flashed via fastboot in case someone messes up their system or boot partitions.
[Shield Q&A] rumsey:
Wow, that escalated quickly.

Well if it's all the same I'd rather have the guy who worked on the development of the device, provided the image, and has useful insight regarding it to stick around as opposed to the pompous trolling jerk with both the moniker and mentality of a prepubescent.

And for the record on who is right and who is wrong, all the guy said is "even after I upload the apk, don't expect it to work right away."

A simple hint that there are more protections in place.

Now see, this was the sarcastic bit of utterly useless drivel that derailed the thread in the first place. Get out of here and take your moto or whatever images with you, you haven't brought anything to THIS community.
[Shield Q&A] :
I'll stay right where I am thank you very much, you don't own XDA and you don't represent the community as a whole. And my username has nothing to do with this, way to skirt the issue.

This whole thing began with agrabren trolling each thread related to uploading system apps. It would be lovely if we could stay on topic going forward.
[Shield Q&A] rumsey:
Yes I'm well aware of your thread requesting someone to pirate and post applications from privately owned tradeshow devices.

And despite your convoluted logic (can we call it that?), distributing copyrighted software without permission is illegal and absolutely actionable, irregardless of your iron clad defense "I guess you shouldn't have let me close to it then."
[Shield Q&A] :
If you had bothered to read that thread you would realize that is not at all what I was asking. It was assumed by most that Dead Trigger 2 was a preinstalled app that came with launch devices, but way to try to twist my words.

This thread is about getting the Tegra Zone apk to work on other devices, so lets keep the conversation to that shall we?
[Shield Q&A] kieso:
Ok ok ok...3 pages of this bickering is enough! Can't we all just get along? Now just do as I say....sit back.....take a deep breath....and drink this mug full of "shut the f#^# up". Hahaha just kidding. Just go roll a fat one and chill out.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
I'm not going anywhere. :) You don't remain a ROM developer if you can't handle a few trolls. The real question is, do you want to be the one who reminds him that if he sideloads those apps on his device, he's running code I wrote, or should I? ;)

A new thread would probably more useful, discussing porting efforts of different aspects, and to which devices. I could see it being easier to port to another Tegra device than to a different SoC. And it probably belongs in Android Development, since that wouldn't be a "general" issue. There's really not a lot more this thread can accomplish without some new goals.

For obvious reasons, I can't actually start a thread on getting any of those features up and running on other devices. :p
[Shield Q&A] SimoxTav:
Being not a developer but "geek enough", count me in whenever you will need a tester for the ported APK. Nexus 7 (so Tegra 3) user here.
[Shield Q&A] demandarin:
Same here. Nexus 7 Tegra3. Would love to test out ported features. I've worked with Asus on Transformer Prime testing out new unreleased software so I know the drill.

I want to get a shield but likely will hold out. Priorities first. But Tegra5 shield with Kepler gpu, I'm on it. I still want to experience tegra4 though. The shield and the new HD Toshiba tablets are the only ones I know that's out already that runs Tegra4. That full HD Toshiba tablet got great reviews. So obviously tegra4 is a very capable processor.
[Shield Q&A] glitchhawk:
ive been watching the shield forum for months and agrabren has personally answered a handful of questions i had about the device. keep up the awesome work agrabren.
[Shield Q&A] SixSixSevenSeven:
HP also have their ASUS transformer style tablet/convertible either out or coming out with tegra 4. forgotten its name but it certainly looks like an interesting device
[Shield Q&A] skygunner27:
Being the Shield owner that I am, I defiently don't want to see the Tegra Zone from the Shield outside of non-Tegra based devices. It kinda ruins that exclusive Shield experience. But on a side note......I would like to get a hold of that Dead Trigger 2 apk to go along with my new Tegra 4 SoC.:highfive:

Thank you soooo much for all that you and your team has done. I really enjoy all aspects of my Shield. It truly is a premium product.
[Shield Q&A] Amanoo:
In all honesty and my humble opinion, I think the idea of it ruining the Shield experience is a load of crap. Most people buy their device for the purpose of it being fun or usefu, not for the sake of exclusiveness.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
I agree. I don't believe keeping things exclusive. I'd be hacking it already if that wasn't a conflict of interest, as well as inappropriate use of internal knowledge.
[Shield Q&A] skygunner27:
What you think means sooooo much too me.:rolleyes:

There are lots of consumers who purchase game consoles for their exclusiveness. I own a maxed out Alienware M18x & ALX all equipped with Nvidia GPU's in SLI. If you were to ask me what is my platform of choice I would say PC. Do I own a Wii, Wii U, 360, PS3, 3DS & Vita? Absolutely....I own those consoles for their exclusive OS' exclusive hardware & exclusive gaming titles I enjoy. I own a S4(Snapdragon 600) to play the Oil Rush game which is a Snapdragon exclusive. One of the deciding factors in my Shield purchase was to play the Tegra exclusive game The Conduit HD, which I enjoyed years ago as a title on the Wii. If Asus can get the next Transformer Tegra 4 based tablet right, then I'm all for it. The Nvidia Shield is a premium/niche/unique product that can't be fully experienced/appreciated from watching Youtube videos. It would be lame to watch what makes the Shield special dissected and shared with other non-Tegra devices.

Everyone has their own personal opinion. To each his own.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
The reality is, running the streaming on a different small screen isn't going to be quite as good. To make it work with another device, you'll need a controller. You now have two options, you can either get one of those "holds my phone with a clamp" controllers, or just use a normal controller and have to find a place to set your phone. Neither of these is ideal, and would really appear as a "poor man's SHIELD". The whole experience is weakened. Now, for some of us, it would be nice to have a 7" or even a 10" screen to remotely play PC games from. I want my powerful PC to become an appliance that sits in the closet, ready to serve me my games (and apps, when needed) to either my Chromebook Pixel, or to some form of tablet or handheld. SHIELD is about as small as I could handle the screen size for any games.

But I don't agree that it would be "lame" to watch what makes SHIELD special dissected and used on other devices, even non-Tegra devices. SHIELD is meant to be a *full* experience. A galaxy S4 with a crappy controller attachment is *not* going to feel as nice, nor be as refined and balanced, as a SHIELD. But on the other hand, it does make phone calls. Do I intent to carry SHIELD everywhere I go? Nope, not at all. But if I know I'm going to have sit-down time to play games, my phone is good for "The Simpsons - Tapped Out", but not for Beach Buggy Blitz.
[Shield Q&A] rumsey:
My only gripe is the screen size. It's rough using note 2 and many tablets for years to going to playing games on a smaller screen than my phone.

If the shield ever has a successor and they can shave off some of the massive bezel and maybe increase the inlay footprint another .5", having 6-6.5" screen would be a world of difference.

Right now I almost prefer to play native games and emulators because everything from my pc games is too small to see. Lowering the FOV to around 70 helps :/
[Shield Q&A] yousirname1:
Ever since I heard about shield being built on android I knew that meant the features could be ported. I was curious so I downloaded the system dump and tried to install the "dashboard.apk". It installed, however as previously stated, will not open. I tried simple build.prop tweaks with no avail. It looks like there is a few different services the dashboard app relies on to function. Hopefully an ACTUAL developer (I'm a noob) can take on this project soon.
[Shield Q&A] Amanoo:
I think it should theoretically be possible to port the app. I can't imagine the Tegra 4 having any special hardware features to make that streaming feature work only one of their device. Should be just a video stream, although perhaps encrypted (which might or might not add difficulty but shouldn't be hardware dependent). Unless they actually control the hardware directly, bypassing OpenGL and possibly even their own drivers, which would be really awkward and weird, my guess is that it should be portable in theory, as it shouldn't be hardware dependent.

If it doesn't work on your phone, it either doesn't work by pure random bad luck, or they probably built a device check into the application. That is what I suspect, anyway, and seems logical to me. It's still mostly conjecture, and unfortunately I've never managed to actually reverse engineer any piece of software. I'm not a great programmer and figuring out how undocumented code works is simply beyond me. In my experience reverse engineering is a lot easier when it only needs to involve a screw driver and a soldering iron. And even then my abilities are still very limited. There's also always the chance that they used some kind of measures against decompilation. I know there are some measures in existence. I believe most of them simply make the code unreadable for any human.

All in all a useless post full of conjecture. I was bored and felt the need to sound clever somewhere.
