Hi

Hope I'm posting in the right forum but since this is related to hardware I'm posting it here.

For most musicians this is a big issue.

code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9913

(I'm a new member and can't post outside links)

As I understand it there is no way of lowering the input gain on android which makes recording sound, say at a concert or in the rehearsal room, impossible because of the distortion created by the high input gain on the mic of android phones.

I can't believe that this hasn't been fixed but apparently it hasn't. I think we seriously need this fixed and it should be possible on a custom ROM shouldn't it? I'm not an app developer and I don't know how to code but it should be possible right?

If anyone manages to to fix this I'm sure there'd be a lot of people who be very grateful.
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
An interesting question.

I'm not sure how many Android devices use ALSA as the underlying layer.

ALSA supports controls.

I haven't looked into my Kyocera Rise.

On my Barnes & Noble Nook Touch I use a Lexicon Alpha 24 bit interface and a Shure SM58 through USB OTG and ALSA.

I use a custom recorder app (since Android doesn't support 24 bit).

It makes dandy recordings.
[Hardware Hacking General] krepperk:
Thanks for the answer but what I want to be able to do is to record directly to my phone in a high volume environment without the use of an external soundcard or even an external mic. I know that the sound quality wouldn't be very good but it would suffice in the rehearsal room or at a concert for personal use.

Apart from the restart method that some have tried, you could use a task manager and kill "xperia home". That will force the launcher to reload again and you'll see your icons there. A lot more faster than a reboot :).

[HTC Sensation] slugger09:
I took the phone of the charger at 7am this morning, it had the green LED on and said 100% so it was charged. I sat it on the window cill and never looked at it, Went out at 11am and checked the phone at 11.30 it said 4% and had a critically low warning. I said this can't be right, rebooted the phone thinking battery readings must be wrong, it restarted at 2% and then turned off.

Now what the hell could of caused this, I am using an Anker battery less than a month old. I have noticed in the past if I leave an app open such as a twitter client and lock the phone without closing the app it doesn't sleep like it should and eats battery, and this is what I did this AM, checked twitter, locked the phone took it of the charger and thought no more about it.

So the question is why when I lock the phone do apps not sleep like they should? Auto sync is off etc, and secondly when I connect this phone to a charger how exactly do I find what killed my battery the last time?

I should add although this is an exteme example without putting my phone in airplane mode half the day I will not make it through the day which is pretty dire for a phone.
[HTC Sensation] slugger09:
Ok I have found out my stats, I challenge anyone to beat this.

3hrs 34min on battery with 2 mins screen on time and I was flat.

Android OS 72% is the battery killer. Phone is obviously not sleeping. Anyone any ideas?

You can pick up these little right angle adaptors on that well known auction site very cheaply. Just do a search for "Vertical Right Angled 90D USB A Female to Micro B Male". Along with a Cruzer Fit tiny USB stick, they make an alternative neat way of extending the storage on rooted devices. I have several for movies now. This is one with the Cruzer Fit inserted: click for a larger image.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] AlderCass:
Brilliant! Definitely gonna get one of those.

This is my current setup and I hate it, one bad bump in the wrong direction could result in a busted microUSB port :eek:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] alpine101:
Yes, I have one of those too! And a couple of the ones with dangly wires. But the right angled adaptor is a lot more stable. Delivery from HK took a couple of weeks.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] AlderCass:
Quick question about the Cruzer Fit as well actually - does it get very hot when in use? Mine is a different brand, I forget what, and it gets worryingly hot whenever I use it, presumably because it's so small.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] DC_MTP:
I think this is alot neater .....I preordered 2 for the wife and I . They are shipping within the next week or so. Solid build quality.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] alpine101:
I can't detect the Cruzers even getting warm. Mind you, they are only doing serial reads of pre-written video files so there is no writing involved.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] alpine101:
Yes I looked at those. But microsd cards are so easy to lose if you want to work with several, fine if it's just one permanently fitted card. With a Cruzer Fit permanently attached, these devices form a nice little module and end up cheaper overall: they're less than £1 post paid to the UK, and I would assume similar to the USA.

Some people are starting to make micro usb memory sticks, but they seem to be taking the line that they have a standard USB on one end and the micro USB at the other, which makes them rather clumsy. They're also silly prices at the moment!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] drodarte:
I agree on the micro sd card reader being a better option. This looks like a nice option for those with external hard drives.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Macmee:
I'm on 4.3 but I just got an update saying "Android 4.3 update now available"?

So I'm on stock 4.3 rooted build JSS15Q but I just got an OTA message.

Naturally this wont work since I'm rooted, but does anyone know what gives? And if there's some sort of update is there a way I can do it while keeping root?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] stevemw:
Check About tablet in settings. If you are not on build JSS15R then it is an update.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Macmee:
Yes, although I'm rooted with a custom recovery so the OTA fails.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] bolo808:
I think it will always say there's an android 4.3 update for now since these are only updates of 4.3. I'm sure when we get kit-kat (android 4.4) it'll change to "android 4.4 update now available" and will stay like that for future updates until the next android version (5.0?).

As for keeping root, installing supersu 1.65 is supposed to prevent losing root after the OTA update but I don't believe it's guaranteed to work but it's always a very quick process to gain root again. You should check out sfhub's discussion thread for this update.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Macmee:
Thanks for the info, in the end I went with this:

Best of luck to you :fingers-crossed: On the bright side even though it disables OTA notifications, I guarantee you any sign of a new update in the future, you'll see it here on xda and at least from there you'll know there's an OTA on the way.

My JSS15R just installed OTA. I was running TWRP and SuperSU, and had no problems. Still rooted.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Jewveeski:
Does anybody know what the changelog for this update is? 8mb seems to make it a minor fix for something I'm guessing
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PJ Clifford:
I DID have problems. I had TWRP 2.6.3.0 and SuperSU 1.65. Update bombed while in TWRP. Rebooted so fast that I couldn't read any error messages.

I was a minor problem as I just downloaded the odex version of the update from the same thread that Macmee linked above. No biggie, but would have been nice it if it happened automatically.

BTW, I WAS automatically notified of the OTA update even though I was running the Odex version of 15Q (due to problems with OTA update while rooted on the previous version -- been to this rodeo before). If I can ask, what leads you to believe that this odex/deodex version will break OTA notifications?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
If you are running the odex version from development, OTA notification will still be there, but the OTA update will fail. At the minimum, the kernel-rootfs included in that build, while only having very minimal functionality changes, will fail the SHA1 check in the OTA update because even a 1-byte change will fail.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] rmm200:
I started looking to see why I had no problems with the OTA. Turns out I did lose the superSU binary and TWRP after the update. I am back to stock recovery. So I have a bit of fixing to do.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PJ Clifford:
Ahhh.... That explains everything! After I got the N7, the first thing I did was root it. Of course that was with the older versions of TWRP and SuperSU. I got the notice for the 15q update and, of course, it failed due to the old SuperSU (didn't know that at the time, just that it failed). I ended up downloading the rooted odex version from here and flashed that through TWRP. Worked perfectly. In the mean time, I upgraded TWRP and SuperSU to their latest versions when I discovered that the reason the original OTA failed was due to older versions of those utilities. So, having no clue that the odex version would kill the update, when I got the notification for 15r, I tried the OTA update and, of course in retrospect, THAT failed too. I immediately did the odex version again -- again with no problem. BUT, I have been scratching my head trying to figure out why it didn't work when I had the latest TWRP/SuperSU. Now I know! Next OTA, I will either just reflash to stock or just wait a day or two for the odex/deodex versions to come out.

Whew. That is a load off. Thanks for filling me in on what is going on. I don't mind problems, but I hate a mystery!

Good new, your phone is fine. Try the folowing..

Enter recovery, do a factory reset and WITHOUT exiting from recovery, flash your backup.

If you have an option to clean the phone chose it, recovery asks you if you want to install a new rom, and then your phone will be ready to flash your backup.

If not you can do it manualy under the ''mount And storage'' menu.

Format only partitions named '' system'', ''data'', And '' preload''
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romeo Mike:
Just wanted to check is anyone else is finding that headphones plugged into this jack often are not picked up by the phone and the speaker is used instead.

Happens both with my car AUX and my in ear Klipsch earphones, although if I jiggle the plug it sometimes works. The bundled headphones (MH750) so not seem to suffer this problem.

Is this a widespread problem or an issue with my handset?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n4v1n:
the MH750 has 3 rings on the jack as a opposed to the 2 rings on the connector for your other headphones am I right? Having the extra ring on it (meant for the remote) may be what is adding the extra tightness when inserted. I'm not sure how to solve your AUX problem but you may need to try headphones which have a built in remote like the MH750 so that it has the extra ring on the connector. This may also be a defect, as I can not confirm since my device is still on it's way.

EDIT : After receiving the phone this happened to me once. You have to play around with the smart connect settings o disable it all together. It doesn't seem to be hardware related.

Hello Xda,

About 3 days ago i read on the web that CyanogenMod has become an original company (CyanogenMod Inc) they reached 7 Million and now they want to do something which is really amazing.

So what i actually mean is that CyanogenMod Inc will bring us a one click installer for almost all devices (ONE NOTICE: DEVICES THAT ARE WITH A SPECIAL PROVIDER ARE NOT SUPPORTED!!!) With this installer you can simply install CyanogenMod software on any phone without going trough all the other steps.

Here are some pictures of the CyanogenMod Installer:

I'd imagine that this would only work for officially supported devices and not unofficial, I don't see how this will work honestly unless it downloads your required ROM for your device?
