In case anyone is worried about their tv's getting burn-in images while letting it sit in the ready to cast mode this time lapse shows that it prevents that from happening

youtu.be/Y4OIRjkF9XY
[Google Chromecast] booked:
Link isn't clickable. And the text on the ready to cast screen could burn in.
[Google Chromecast] whiteferrett:
link isnt clickable because xda doesnt allow me to make it clickable untill i have 10 post.... ive been a user here for quite a while just never needed to post anything before... also if you watched the clip you would notice it moves it up and down on the screen to prevent that
[Google Chromecast] gsrrr:
For the lazy.

[Google Chromecast] ChrisNee1988:
The text never changes
[Google Chromecast] whiteferrett:
Actually yes the text doesn't ever change but it does move up and down on the screen and the part that says ready to cast appears and disappears
[Google Chromecast] dougyfresh254:
So, I have been using the chromecast and I must warn people that I have noticed a little bit of burn in. Fortunately it looks like it isn't that bad but it has become noticeable when looking at certain colors and viewing angles. It only burns in at the point where the letters are that's it. Just wanted to post to let others know to be careful.
[Google Chromecast] jlc9761:
Are you using a plasma tv?
[Google Chromecast] Jammin72:
I have a plasma and have fallen asleep while watching a couple of times. The Ready to Cast words are persistent in one spot. Ill report after some more normal viewing.
[Google Chromecast] whiteferrett:
how long of time did you leave it on and how heavy is it.... cause i know that ready to cast doesnt move but it dissapears for about 10 to 15 mins then displays for about 2 mins then dissapears again
[Google Chromecast] Jammin72:
It remained on for 4-6 hours for two nights.

I still have the ghosting. Only visible on lighter colored backgrounds. I'm not keen on keeping it on to watch it's behavior to see if somehow it's defective at this point until the background actually evens out. Currently I've taken to switching to another input while I select content and when I fire it up the TV automatically switches back to the Chromecast.
[Google Chromecast] bjs229:
I just discovered this thread after a search. I am experiencing the same blue burnt in text. Ran a scroll wipe and it seems to have helped some. This is an annoying issue.
[Google Chromecast] altimax98:
My wife left it on the home screen on a cheap LED for 2 days......... no burn in :)
[Google Chromecast] bozzykid:
Unless you are using an older plasma, there's really no reason you would see any burn in.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LSGio:
I have the international i9500 and it's rooted but i have my carrier branded rom and i wanna restore the boot animation and shutdown animation to stock.

i tried to run TrulyClean Script and it did the job but it also removed some other stuff that i need so what file do i need to remove from the system to get back to the stock samsung boot animation?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2259890.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LSGio:
thanks but i think there's an easier way ro achive it and i'll explain why:

in the trulyclean's zip file there wasn't any of these files which means that the script executes a command that does the job .

do you know how the trulyclean script does that?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .Astiak:
I had a look at the script, it looks like it deletes the entire folder:

delete_recursive("/system/media/video");

So, it should have left you with no boot animation rather than stock.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LSGio:
no, after i used the script it got me back to the stock boot animation so do you think if ill delete this folder it will restore it?

is it worth a shot?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Just reflash the stock rom you need with (Mobile) Odin and reroot. You will not loose any data this way :)
[Google Chromecast] djeaton:
I just got my Chromecast and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. But the downfall that I see is that there doesn't seem to be anything similar to the Roku Store as a central source of information about new apps that support the device or hacks or general news or whatever. And there doesn't seem to be a way to really search the Android Play Store for apps that support the device. Does anyone know of a blog or web site devoted to announcements of the latest apps that support Chromecast? Or is there maybe an Android app that curates the latest news?

There are links in that thread.
[Google Chromecast] djeaton:
Thanks. I'd seen that link early on before there was a lot of other stuff posted on it. I have subscribed to it now though. I'm looking for something akin to AndroidCentral or something like a Drippler app for Chromecast. Surprised that no one has even registered CromeCastCentral.com yet. It would be a great URL for a blog on the topic. :)
[Google Chromecast] djeaton:
Seems like so much of the stuff out there is developer/hacker related or otherwise technical in nature and not oriented to the consumer yet. I'm sure it will come though. There just needs to be something with an RSS feed that announces firmware and hardware updates, tips and tricks, and new programs or apps that are now supporting Chromecast.

[Google Chromecast] djeaton:
Cool! I think one needed tutorial is playlists. For example, how one can go about taking control from another device and changing what is playing versus adding to a play queue from another device. Even adding to a YouTube playlist from the computer is something I haven't figured out yet. Sending an entire YouTube playlist is fairly easy, but how do you add to it? How can someone ELSE add to it? IDK. But it is a perfect topic for a tutorial! :)

Here are flashable .zip files to bring BLE support to any tuna (should work on also on toro and toroplus yes) device on any 4.3 ROM. Attached also the restore .zip to restore the files as they were.

Based on the commit, files by manuel naranjo: https://github.com/manuelnaranjo/an...mmit/31756f3c0f364c9c7d07e8813a8b806ec0ddaded , so props to him

I've attached also the same files for grouper N7 and manta N10. Don't have the stock files for those, that's why I didn't made any .zips, but feel free to try them.

Test it out on BLE devices and post some feedback. As of the time being Fitbit doesn't sync with Android 4.3 API yet, but it should see the device.

1st August 2013 : Anyone who flashed the previous version, please reflash the version 2 posted below.

1) first flash 4.3_BLE-tunaRESTORE2.zip to revert and delete the wrongly permission file

2) flash 4.3_BLE-tuna2.zip for proper permission file placement

I've made a mistake when making the updater-script, so the .xml permission file was placed into /etc instead of /etc/permissions, sorry for that :|.

24th August 2013 - Since I've surprisingly got a good offer to sell the Galaxy Nexus, user wbedard said he'll make sure to keep this support alive. He compiled GN, N7 flashable JWR66Y zips for BLE , posted here. Thanks !

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] imam.krismanto:
Oh i think, i don't have any else bluetooth devices with BLE..

But is that compatible with classic bluetooth??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madd0g:
Of course, it's just an extension of previous Bluetooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CommanderROR:
I flashed this on a Stock 4.3 ROM...I don't think it works.

BLE scanner 0.1 says "no BLE support, just as it did on Stock without this zip.

Can anyone else try this?

You can fimd the BLE Scanner in the 10.2 test build thread on page 29
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madd0g:
You're correct, I've made a mistake in the updater-script, so the permission file wasn't in /etc/permissions, that's why the API check for BLE permission failed. It works now, please see #1 post. Thanks for noticing ! Here's the test with https://github.com/tadejkolino/BLECheck .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CommanderROR:
Great!

What is that app you are using? Seems to be different from BLEscan...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Hey madd0g, awesome! :)

I don't know which way is better, just deleting the lines or force enabling! ;P

But, great work, just clicked 5 stars!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashutos1997:
after flashing this, will i be able to get system updates from google or not >?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
No, installation will fail then!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashutos1997:
then i am not installing it as i am using your cm10.2 ble enabled :) [MENTION=4022928]Carlos_Manuel[/MENTION]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
If you are using my build CM10.2 unofficial then you won't get updates from Google, you get updated only on Stock ROM by Google!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madd0g:
Something I threw together when Carlos and I were talking about BLE support and needed a quick way to check if this is it. It uses the API check for the BLE permission file. Check out the github link for method used.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madd0g:
No, the assert check will fail, but if you flash the RESTORE .zip before, you'll get to the stock state in which you will be able to successfully update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madd0g:
I guess both work :P

I posted this since I use a stock Google image personally and since it's possible to flash it separately it might be useful for people who aren't into custom ROM's or heavy addons. Thanks :]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Yeah. :)

For me force enable method is better. ;P

Sadly, since Google doesn't support the Galaxy Nexus (maguro) beyond Android 4.3, they have not committed any code to AOSP that would directly benefit the device in any way. However, the Android devs supporting the GNex during it's "afterlife" are among the best in the community. Click on the link below to see that they are using the same patches from Cyanogenmod that I use to support the other devices in this thread.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wbedard:
Congratulations in finding this little "hole-in-the-wall" within XDA! No problem in being new but let me get a little info from you. First of all, is it correct to assume that you have a 2012 Nexus 7 (grouper) device, since (I believe) the 2013 Nexus 7 (flo/deb) already has full BLE support from Google. Secondly, have you installed a custom Recovery, such as TWRP or CWM? Get back to me with this info and we'll move on from there.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oily:
Thanks wbedard,yes I have the Nexus 7 2012 and I've installed a TWRP.

Many thanks for your reply :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wbedard:
It sounds like you're all set. Just download both files to your device. Reboot into TWRP, press Install and select the "patch" file you downloaded. Tell TWRP to proceed with the install and then reboot your device. Ta-da...you should now have Bluetooth Low-Energy support. If, later on, your device gets a security patch from Google pushed as an OTA, you'll need to undo the BLE patch before the OTA will install (you can try but the OTA will fail it's pre-install checks...). Go back into TWRP and install the "stock" file you downloaded and reboot. Now you can install the OTA. Of course, after such an OTA, I'll need to prepare a new BLE patch for that version of Android. And on and on it goes...

Give it a shot and let me know if you have any issues.

BT switch means no APP, but directly, into the Android settings, the switch to activate BT.

Flashing back to stock BT enables the switch and connectivity again, of course with losing BT LE

Patch no effect on Nexus 7 running 5.1.1 (LMY47V)

Hello,

I am trying to get BLE running on a Nexus 7 running 5.1.1 (LMY47V). I have downloaded the files you posted [MENTION=2769491]wbedard[/MENTION] for this device and I am able to successfully flash the patch .zip, but it makes no difference. Normal Bluetooth works as expected, but no BLE devices appear and the "BLE Checker" app lets me know "BLE NOT Supported".

When I flash the stock file, I am not able to turn Bluetooth on, it hangs with the Bluetooth ON toggle grayed out in the settings.

I have tried restarting the device as well as restored the device and flashed again from scratch with no luck. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong or what I can do to get this fixed?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wbedard:
Hey [MENTION=8961699]mortkls[/MENTION],

I was just looking around some of the older threads I'm still subscribed to and there is one project in particular that I wanted to recommend to you for your device. This project started off providing "long term support" for the Galaxy Nexus device and has grown to include support for many other Nexus devices, including the 2012 Nexus 7 (grouper). I especially recommend it to you because the old release of Android that you are focused on is a serious security risk. This project will allow you to try out Android 6.0, 7.1 or even 8.0. Like most "enthusiast ROMs", they may not have bomb-proof stability but I can certainly vouch for the developer's commitment to the AOSP code-base. I'm not positive that his project will provide the BLE capability on your device but those patches have so widely adopted that there's a good chance this project has incorporated them, provided they still work with the newer versions of Android. You can find this project at the following link here in XDA:

Ok, I still don't see any conclusive test results...

So, if someone could test Fitbit with a 4.3 running Nexus4 that would be great.

Even better, if you know somebody with;) an iPhone 4 or newer, get them to run the "LightBlue" app, that should show the BLE characteristics of the modded Nexus.

Thanks...
