[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
Do you have the stock ROM running normally?

Can you connect the phone to the computer and see int/ext storage?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
you only need to leave it out and connect it to usb while the battery is still out, holding down both vol keys while connecting the usb cable. you flash it without the battery in the phone. you should get download mode symbol. did you try that?

Go Into your sd card and find the ROM zip. That will tell you. You shouldn't be flashing if you don't even know what you are flashing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] clone1008:
I know what I am flashing bro. The problem was that I had to do a nandroid restore and I couldn't remember if that restore was on version 5 or 6 of Sacs Rom. I figured it was something simple but I guess not. It always used to show up on HTC.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] P1NK13P13:
If you read the thread before flashing, you should know what version of the rom you are on. Always pay attention to what version you are on. Take a mental note of it or write it down in the future. That rom has manyyy versions. I almost wonder if you skipped a step or flashed an update without the rom, but if you did, I wonder why you aren't bricked.

Regardless of knowing what rom you flashed, seriously humor us and look at your sd card. If you have to, sort the folder by date added.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] crawrj:
If the build prop wasn't modified to show the custom Rom version you can't tell from about device. The only real way to know is to look at version 5 to 6 change log. Find something that was added into version 6 and test it. If it works you are on 6. If not you are 5.

Hi im new here but ive got a quick question (ive searched already) is it possible to actually send a file via BT and actually discover a device because mine neva works and also i can only do this via BT manager and setup a remote connection.

So the question is is it possible to just send a file ???

My BT version is 1 and build 3500

Thanks in advance
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] joey jojo:
yeah sure, go to the ftp

ftp://xda-developers.com/BlueAngel/CAB_Files/Bluetooth Upgrades/

choose the (BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900.cab)upgrade file and copy it to the 'My documents folder' and simply tap it and it will install.

and after that, when you tap and hold on your xda, it will say send via bluetooth, instead of using beam, as that wont work...

enjoy!!!!

by the way, login and password is just XDA and XDA

and if you are using internet explorer and cant get it to work, right click and click login . then enter password and username

currently on an aging GNEX toro, been watching the upcoming androids, looking to move on to a more current phone. can anybody advise me? i abhor VZ bloatware, and i like customizing. have enjoyed crackflashing my GNEX since i got it.

S4: great specs, hate the iphone clone button, and it's locked up tight, with no ETA on bootloader unlock for the ME7 update. dev edition looks unlockable, but has bafflingly useless tiny memory. (seriously? 16g not counting how much the OS takes?)

HTC one: killer phone, no removable battery (wtf?) no SD card (seriously?)

MOTO X: looks like the closest to a GNEX i'm gonna get, but the specs pale compared to the high end phones.

Nexus 5? the nexus 4 accidentally never got LTE, and hence never came to VZ. dammit. can't find a release date (aside from ?2013?) or specs anywhere.

LG G2: looks great, good specs, all the usual features, but weird rear buttons. i think i'm favoring this one right now.

your advice, please.

I think TouchWiz is in need of an overhaul. It just seems way too bloated when compared to stock android and Sense. IMO it's kinda reminiscent of Sense 3.5 before it was greatly improved. I'd just like my phone to be speedy and lag free without having to mod it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] atomicspaceindian:
the last overhaul was the galaxy s3, it wasnt so long ago....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] twinsfan14:
Meh. I really like TouchWiz for what it is. When I was toying with the One before I got my S4, and I thought Sense 5 was still pretty heavily integrated, just as much as TouchWiz is on the S4. I would imagine an overhaul of both stock Android and TouchWiz will come with Key Lime Pie, whenever that is released.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AxAtAx:
+1 thats what makes it what it is...tw...runs good...and I have ran every launcher out there....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] foomoo:
I have personally thought that although there are tons of bloats, it does its job fairly well. Pretty snappy and responsive. I have looked at sense ui and realized that touchwiz isn't too bad at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] graydiggy:
I think that on modern phones, if people are running into lag, they don't know how to use their device properly. Disable animations, don't overload it with apps you rarely use, turn off settings you rarely use until you need them. Root helps. Freeze/uninstall bloat. I have no issues at all with both my E4GT and my S4. Why? Because I know how to make the best of it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Delakit:
I say TW is simply scratched and something new is born. Stock TW is garbage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] graydiggy:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] j510:
Funny I think stock android needs an overhaul. Its too plain and lacks of features. I mean it doesnt even have a quick toggle in the dropdown or brightness control. The simplest features.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AxAtAx:
I agree with all of you, but compared to some launchers...TW works perfect everytime.....it has NEVER locked up on me, like nova and apex..

as far as an overhaul of the stock, again, at least everything works compared to aosp roms that I ran for a couple years with continuous problems one after the other....

naaaaw. tw rocks.....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] fukenbiker:
charge port

I was fan of CyanogenMod for years now, and didn't care that bluetooth FC or something was wonky in the camera, but because of the TV remote?!**^ the first ROM I flashed was GoldenEye with no add ons, and it's my very first TW instead of AOSP.

I used to be a purist too, but TWRP is too easy, those hard button operations I used to have to do in CWM, don't miss it one bit. And this ROM has cool features as is, flashed it with a simple swipe of a slider bar. Mind numbing easy. I even ditched the original nandoid and moved it to the desktop computer to save 3.56 GB of room on my SD card. I used TWRP to make a backup of my presently pleased state of GoldenEye perfection and checked every available box, and only it's 2.47 GB. Big difference!

I flashed my 2.47 GB backup of my GoldenEye, with no add ons, and found no issues. Flawless. Everything works. No bugs. Not one instance of lag or a force close. Call log and texts messages did not go away. I checked every box when I made my backup. Unbelievable perfection in image reflection!

Last week I dropped it in the toilet with the charge port door open on it's otterbox.

When I was no longer able to charge it, I replaced the charging port myself, just to keep MDL and free from having to endure what everyone with MF3 suffers. It wasn't too hard peeling apart the S4 just to replace the charging port. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5e3r_2N15c You don't have to get this deep into it, only one connector up top instead of all five. I bought my replacement charge port from his YouTube link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...veASIN=B00DHZ2KZ8&linkCode=as2&tag=three04-20

It cost me $14.99 delivered in in two days flat. It arrived yesterday on Saturday and I was able to have the desktop recognize it and it charges like new and I am BOASTING!

Sign that petition that's floating around and get the bootloader unlocked. And say nice things about the whiz kids who are trying to find an exploit for all the MF3 borked users. Amen.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] RockRatt:
I loved Cyanogenmod for years on my S1 and S2. Next AOKP on my S2 was the ****e. Then when ShoStock came to be I tried out Touchwiz based Roms. Sammy did it right with TW this time around. Next was my S3 and TW was real nice with LoserRom and his later creations. Yes the bloat ATT adds is crappy and some of Sammy apps as well. But it is fast and smooth and everything works. Run a custom ROM without the bloat, add in what most CM has for mods to it and it is awesome. Now with my S4 I went straight to ShoStock on its very first bootup.

Did I say I hate ATT yet. Last phone I buy from them though with f'd up bootloaders.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] fredrick1213:
Maybe I was a bit too harsh. TW has just been frustrating me. I expect a device with these specs to run almost flawlessly. I'm not new to rooting or android so of course I know how to speed the device up. It does get faster when I do this, but still not where it should be
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] KennyG123:
Curious...if people don't like Touchwiz...why buy a Touchwiz phone? Because of proprietary drivers it is difficult to make a bug free AOSP of any kind on it. It is easier to get Touchwiz like features on a Google phone, so maybe you should look for the next one of those.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AxAtAx:
Correct, there are many more choices out there, that doesn't have tw as stock launcher.

I dunno, with a few tweaks, tw is super fast.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Gamer_Josh:
I actually like TW on the S4 as well. No issue so far here. Smooth and no freezes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jd1639:
I don't think most people realize it's not tw that's the issue. It's the bloat at&t and Samsung put on the phone. Without that most would love tw. It works!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] graydiggy:
It's not even Samsung's bloat. I like their apps. It is the provider that puts so much crap on he devices.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] frmorrison:
I like Touchwiz, but I froze the AT&T and Samsung bloat the first day I got in back in May, and this doesn't require root. I never had lag or any issues.

The only issues I have had with TW is it get warm when playing games (most smartphones do this) and it randomly reboots every week (but not when I am using it).

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] joebou23:
Hello,

First post here. Just got the Verizon HTC one and having an issue with the stock mail notification. When an email is received, it only show the notification briefly in the status bar and badge icon, and immediately marks the email as read and the notification goes away. I never had a proble with my Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7, or HP CM Touchpad doing this. It will show the status bar notification and badge if there is more than one email, but only breifly shows when there is only one because it is marking it as "read". I am the administrator of our corporate email server and have tried different settings on the server with no such luck. I have also tried installing the stock android 4.2 email apk and it does the same thing. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks again

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TravellingGuy:
Hey klau7.

I don't use any bluetooth devices so can't really help with that request, unfortunately.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TravellingGuy:
Getting closer! As soon as you mentioned the libraries being provided by mesa and the NVidia package, I had a doh! moment. es2_info is now showing the same as you, along with GL_RENDERER showing NVIDIA Tegra.

However, I'm now suffering this error when running es2_gears over and over again to stderr and only getting around 40-60fps

Couldn't open /sys/bus/nvhost/devices/host1x/syncpt/22/max

Sounds like I'm not the only one with this problem. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35545164#post35545164

The clutter test applications no longer segfault either, but do also throw the above error.

Unfortunately, Debian does not have packaged Tegra drivers (although I did see a request to package them a couple of years ago). I tried the Ubuntu package, but seems Ubuntu is at a higher ABI than Debian Sid at the moment, so it didn't "just work".

I'm going to try using some previous releases of the Tegra drivers or maybe unpack the Ubuntu package and manually put the files in place and see what happens, unless you have extra words of wisdom, jrohwer. :)

Thanks for your help, I'm hoping my trials and tribulations will also help out others.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jrohwer:
Yes, I'm getting the same /sys/bus/... error as you and others, seems to be a problem with Jhinta's kernel. Unfortunately I don't have any C programming skills so can't investigate this further. However, when you pipe stderr to /dev/null (es2gears 2>/dev/null) you will get around 300 FPS. So it seems to "work" even though you get this error. kwin_gles also "works". This is also the state I'm at so have no additional suggestions.

Incidentially the kernel posted by sni on the Jhinta kernel thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=43203818&postcount=569

actually works and has this fixed. The only issue I have with that kernel is that it is not overclocked so it is slow. But all the other things (USB, framebuffer, nvidia hw accell) are fixed! I tried to patch the overclock code into Sni's sources and while the kernel compiles without error, it won't boot. As mentioned I don't know C so can't really debug this. So for me it's the choice of having a half working but fast kernel (my own) versus a fully working slow one, and I chose the earlier option since I use my tab as my main computer when travelling and need it to be fast. I can live with the half working stuff as it is not a show stopper for me. Ultimately however, it would be really cool to have the overclocking code working in Sni's kernel, then we would have a really "perfect" solution for Ubuntu on the tf101....
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TravellingGuy:
Interesting, as I did redirect stderr to /dev/null as well, but I still only get around 60fps, not the 300 that you and the the other thread mention.

Makes me think that I still don't have hardware acceleration, despite es2info suggestion otherwise. :)

Good luck! Love to see an updated kernel with everything fixed up.

I'm heading trip soon, so probably won't be around the forum until mid-September.

Do you his think it is possible to get the "special effects" in kwin working? I installed the tegra drivers and switched from xfwm4 to kwin_gles but for now the effects like wobbly windows don't work
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jrohwer:
Yes I have them working. I don't know about wobbly windows, don't like them :) But the desktop cube for switching desktops works for sure for me, and other window effects as well.

Are you sure the tegra drivers are loaded (what does es2_info show, NVIDIA Tegra or mesa? it must be the former).

In KDE systemsettings, Desktop Effects, click "enable desktop effects at startup". In the advanced type change compositing type to OpenGL, and rendering to "native" (something like that, writing from memory here).
