I tried nova and golauncher but I am unable to figure out how to mimic those buttons on the bottom of the screen.

I have a galaxy tab 3 8"

I plan to do a flush install in my dash, and it would make it a lot easier/cleaner if I could cover those buttons up and mimic them on the screen but no luck so far.

thanks
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] pjoseph24:
I am sure its possible because some of the reviews online of the different launchers show screen shots and at the bottom of the screen there are small icons of the three buttons. Unfortunately there is no mention of it in the article/ review.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Ticklefish:
It depends.

If your SystemUI.apk has softkeys (as they're called) coded in, you can use that code and put softkeys into your statusbar. It's not perfect but having a HOME and a BACK key can be at the top of the screen can be quite handy on larger devices.

Putting a whole navbar in is a lot more complicated though and way beyond my skills.

Sudden thought...can you post a screenshot of your home screen please? I may have an idea..
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiimonkey9:
We know that Samsung has signed a multi-year contract with Wolfson, and that past phones, such as the Note 2, have used Wolfson DAC's. Now, all we know about the audio on the Note 3 is that it will be "hi-def" being 24bit and 192khz. From what I've read, this spec is for both versions of the Note 3. Now, do you all think that both the Snapdragon 800 version and the Exynos 5420 version will have a Wolfson DAC? Or will the 800 have crappy integrated qualcomm audio as the S3 did?

I've tried contacting both Samsung and Wolfson, but to no avail. As soon as any information is available on the subject, I'll update this post.

S800 has a the Qualcomm DAC at least from my experience with the xperia z ultra, but I might be wrong .
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seraphism:
hiya,

from what iv heard so far the s800 version will have the qualcom chip. I tried getting in contact with the editors from engadget who were at IFA 2013 to ask this very question &got zilch. iv tried tweeting Samsung & Sony about the audio DACs in the zperia z1 &the galaxy note 3 &u guessed it..... nothing. the person I have spoken to is a recognised Dev here at xda &he says that the sound for the note 3 will be as good as u can get, but probably for the exynos version.

I hope this helps :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thekoRngear:
Guys, I have a question developed since the release of S800 devices i.e., Ultra, S4 LTE-A (and coming I9506), G2 etc which will have the audio solution that Qualcomm provides. GSMArena already praised S600 (S4 I9505) audio quality. And since the S800 is a faster and improved version of slapdragon devices I think slapdragon does not seat idle. I mean they also continue to improve their audio part. That said, should not be the difference between exynos 5 octa and a slapdragon s4/note 3 minimal?

I dont get any much response from LTE-A owners.

It is not like crappy yamaha DAC against Exynos powered Wolfson chips.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiimonkey9:
Well, it should still support that "hifi" audio, so it can't be that bad. Plus, at E3 Qualcomm was showing off the audio of the SD800 which sounded pretty damn impressive to me at the time. I don't doubt that the audio quality will be good, but I'm worried that I won't be able to use audio mods like voodoo or viper4android.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodrigorajao:
Whatever... all that awesome audio quality will go to waste if the phone has a crappy speaker on the back, like old Note 2.

I'm so spoiled by my Nexus 10 front facing stereo speakers.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiimonkey9:
The speaker is on the bottom for the Note 3. But, ummm.... When people talk about audio quality, they are talking about it with headphones. Nobody expects speakers to sound like a 7.1 surround sound system on a phone.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seraphism:
you know what guys.... I'm tired of all this audio chip crap, at IFA 2013 it was all about oooh display this &wow camera that, yet the bigwigs just don't bother with discussing audio. I don't know why they don't get that the reason why apple make millions on the iphone every year is because they do their audio quite well across the whole range. hell, I'd get an iPhone if it wasn't for wretched iTunes. its purely logical to assume that people will use the one item they have pretty much ALL the time as a music player rather than a video player (software permitting) isn't it? I mean who cares if you've got a 5 inch screen that can display 1080p? really? you'd have to have 21/20 vision to pick up all the tiny details anyway. but sound, that's different, different phones, even by the same company or even in the same product line seem to be miles apart in terms of audio quality. its ridiculous. &I, like a lame ass, have spent the last week trying to figure out what audio capabilities the note 3 has. more fool me. I might as well buy a decent USB DAC, connect it to my phone &let that handle all the audio. these companies are taking the mick.....
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMax99:
I have not listen to music on my phone since I've upgraded to the GN1.

I'm always paranoid that the power will run out on me before I get home since I listen to quite a lot of music when I'm out.

So I'm using a sansa + portable amp atm, and it's great!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] betoNL:
If a phone is equipped with the Wolfson DAC and powered by voodoo sound and /or other tweaks, you will get one of the best sound quality, a PORTABLE device can have, including standalone portable music players .

That's what I got from my Galaxy S1 and Note 2 devices..

That could be a reason for a user to go for the exynos version of the Note3 instead of Snapdragon's...that's all

When I decide to finally purchase the Note 3, I will first take my headsets to a showroom and compare the Note 3's sound against my GNote2 among other things

Not being in a hurry to purchase yet another very expensive gadget, is a good thing ...

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seraphism:
agreed Mr beto. I was on a serious rant that day lol. iv decided to bide my time. any phone company would be all too happy to sign me to yet another contract for another 2 years. I think I might just wait until my good old nexus one completely gives up before I use another phone. the isn't actually too bad with viper4audio lol. I don't actually think the exynos one will be available on any carrier on my country, as its only 3g enabled as far as I'm aware? the snapdragon one is lte enabled which is what the great communication gods of the united kingdom are deciding to push as hard as they can.

Hard to believe the DAC of the Snapdragon model can match the Wolfson one

I prefer to wait and see what Supercurio will say about it and then I will be doing my own comparisons at the showrooms.

I hope it will get close...

Here is Holland it will be much easier to get the S800.

If I decide to go for the Exynos, I will probably need to make a short trip to Germany...

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seraphism:
wow, if what gsmarena say is correct then Mr Barry is indeed correct..... well that means audio in all upcoming Snapdragon phones should be about on par with wolfson audio chips?.....

it looks like there may be hope yet. I'm sorry for asking but who is supercurio? I tried looking for info but I'm finding only voodoo stuff. is he like doomlord of the xperias? anyhoo, if anyone is interested I went to my local three store today to ask about the note 3. the advisor there said it should be available on three in the uk from 25th September. on a 2 year "the one plan" contract it would be £37 per month with £100 up front, I'm guessing that's for the 32gb note 3. time to raid the ol' piggy bank guys! :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NZtechfreak:
I hate to break it to you guys, but just having a Wolfson does nothing whatsoever to ensure high quality sound. Stated differently: having a Wolfson DAC rather than the Qualcomm DAC does not in and of itself mean one variant of the Note 3 will sound better than the other.

Because of the original Galaxy S and Voodoo Sound, Wolfson have a totally irrational following amongst Android users. Don't get me wrong, Wolfson make great DACs, but the DAC in a device is only part of the equation - how it is implemented is also really important. Case in point is the LG 2x Vs the Galaxy S. Both have the same DAC, only even with Voodoo Sound the Galaxy S has incomparably better sound quality (as measured and heard by Supercurio). Why? Implementation. There are lots of elements that go into implementing a DAC well - RF shielding from other components (the 2x has horrible CPU noise that intrudes all over the sound), how the power supply to the DAC is governed, the output impedance of the device (which is determined by more than the DAC alone, output impedance was the main problem with the Yamaha DAC'd S2 - it was 10ohm which meant unless your headphones/earphones had an input impedance of at least 80ohms the mismatch caused wonky frequency responses, big problem given virtually all IEMs have an input impedance in the 16-50 range), and what the software layer does with sound (the Wolfson-packing S4 Octa upsamples everything to 48KHz, which negatively impacts fidelity). There are probably lots of other things I'm not aware of that have a bearing that are external to a devices DAC.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] betoNL:
That's another reason I would never pre-order an expensive device, besides trying avoiding those abusive pre-order prices :

I like to take my time and do my own comparison tests before buying anything, disregard all that technical mambo-jambo and expert reviews.

All those sellers of the showrooms I visit, are already used with me, bringing my headsets and playing hours with different devices and comparing them.

It's fun anyway, and in the meantime, the amazing sound of my Wolfson/Voodoo/MegaBass Beats powered GNote2 will do just fine....

How did you get the remainder of the shield off? I got the covers off but I can't get the shield off.

EDIT: I got it. Another question: do you leave your chromecast "naked" or?
[Google Chromecast] ddggttff3:
You should put the RF shields back on after you do this modification, as they prevent interference and issues. During the dissection of my device though, I fully removed the shields (including the sides), so I have no choice but to run that one naked, but it is sitting on the side as I have another rooted chromecast I use for day to day usage.

To be more clear, you should jump both pins at point 26. I am planning on re-doing this thread now that flashcast is out, and can make this a hell of a lot easier.
[Google Chromecast] Bad Bimr:
Have not used my chromecast since I bought it, prob early August. Used it the first day and put it back in the box. Decided to play with it again and root it. Problem is as soon as you plug it into the TV it starts to update (have/had wifi off just in case). So I assume it downloaded the update way back when I first used it. Not sure if this update patches the root exploit or not and I don't want to find out. Will this method get make out of "update mode"? Anything else I can try? You mentioned Flashcast any way to use it?

Thanks

BB
[Google Chromecast] ddggttff3:
First off, any official OTA for the chomecast will patch the root exploit, so if that update goes through you will be unable to root your chromecast.

As for this method working for you, if you follow the jumping method as stated in OP, then yes, this method would force your chromecast to boot from the USB Cable.

As for using flashcast, thanks to tchebb's help, if you just boot flashcast 1.1.1 on a jumpdrive, it will automatically delete the OTA from the device, and reset the boot mode back to normal. :) So the need to use UART is no longer required!

I've tried doing the root method posted here:

[Google Chromecast] ddggttff3:
Is your device rootable? if it has taken any official google OTA yet, then the device will be unable to use or boot flashcast as google patched the root exploit.

Next time please try to keep questions to the relevant thread, thanks.
[Google Chromecast] wptski:
IIRC, in another thread it was stated that Flashcast made no changes to the Chromecast, it was just to setup the USB drive to flash the Chromcast and it was the Pwnedcast ROM that made the needed changes to prevent the OTA from taking place.

It's mentioned in this post:http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46307051&postcount=124 or am I misunderstanding what you mean?
[Google Chromecast] ddggttff3:
That is correct, flashcast makes no changes, but it DOES reset the boot mode of the device back to normal. this is done to ensure that no device gets stuck in recovery mode forever, as well as deletes /cache/ota.zip so if a official google OTA is on the device, it gets deleted.
[Google Chromecast] wptski:
Deleting /cache/ota.zip isn't considered a change? So, if ALL that is done to a 12072 build is to setup the Flashcast USB drive, it can't be updated by Google?
[Google Chromecast] ddggttff3:
No, the device will still be able to update from google if flashcast is ran, flashcast just deletes any already downloaded OTA that has yet to be installed.

Ok, here's what's up. I have updated my ME301T from 4.1.1 to 4.2.1 on the 10.6.1.15.4 build number, and successfully unlocked my bootloader using the TF300T apk file, but when I try to use fastboot to load TWRP on as my recovery, my computer cannot find the tablet to send the commands to. I have tried two different computers with two different operating systems, used the naked drivers, and even forced a bootloader reboot from adb but still cannot get the tablet to accept fastboot commands. What am I doing wrong and is there another workaround for getting TWRP 2.5.0.0 loaded on my tablet?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TwStD:
Bump. Still not getting commands through to my fastboot.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darktowermage:
Me too!

I'm in the same situation. Can't seem to get the fastboot usb drivers to work with fastboot commands. Fastboot devices command doesn't display any devices.

Current setup on my me301t:

- bootloader unlocked

- android version 4.2.1

- build # 0.6.1.25

- rooted

I would like to use the fastboot to install twrp or cwm so I can install a custom rom. GooManager won't install custom recovery, says no recoveries are available for my device. Rom Manager says it flashes the CWM recovery but doesn't work. If I take the OTA update to go to build 0.6.1.31 I lose root and am unable to restore root. I then have to reflash to .25 by placing the ASUS stock firmware on my micro-SD card and rebooting into RCK (recovery) using vol-down while powering up.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Graiden05:
fastboot

First of all You should to be shure that tablet connected directly to the usb port without any usb-hub. Sometimes usb on front panel of PC may cause same problem, so use one on the rear side. If You use windows os check device manager. You should see something like asus fasboot inteface or bootloader interface, if is not there - reinstall drivers.

P.S.: I hope my English is not too terrible.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darktowermage:
The device shows up as "bootloader interface" when in fastboot bootloader. The command adb devices works fine. fastboot devices shows nothing. this is obviously a driver issue, otherwise fastboot devices would show the device same as adb devices. I've tried both on ubuntu and windows with no results.

---------- Post added at 10:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 PM ----------

I finally got fastboot to show the device on Ubuntu 12.04. Here's how:

- install the adb fastboot ppa on ubuntu following the instructions at webupd8.org/2012/08/install-adb-and-fastboot-android-tools.html. Can't post the full link because of my XDA perms.

- run fastboot as root like so:

sudo fastboot devices

Didn't initially run it as root. That was the key for me. Still not sure why Windoze didn't work, but that's typical.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoryTallman:
I can't confirm this, as I don't have a GE but I'd say that link is bull. You need s-off to downgrade hboots, and you can't get s-off with hboot 1.54, which the GE shipped with. Since no one in their comment section has got it working I'd say its a no go. Feel free to try though.

---------- Post added at 05:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------

Also, as I said before, the GE ruu is an unsigned zip made by devs to convert an s-off phone to complete GE. It will accomplish exactly the same thing as flashing a stock GE rom and recovery, since the OP's phone is a real GE and already has the Google firmware. But either way would work, provided you can get s-off. Obviously the solution that doesn't require s-off has a much lower chance of messing things up though...
