[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Hidden92:
Hi,

I wonder if there are any concerns regarding a magnetic charging cable from eBay (china).

Normally I wouldn't buy cheap china stuff, but since it's just a cable: Can the chinese even mess up a simple USB cable?

I don't want to spend 35€ for a dock just to pull the cable out, thats stupid...

regards,

Hidden

You don't even need the full cable mate, just get an adaptor to go on the end.

I have one and it works fine, just ordered another to keep in work. :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Hidden92:
I would prefer a cable because it looks better and the cable is going next to the device not straight away from it.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] cwmoser:
I installed ICM on my Infuse but the Recovery Menu is not working.

All that is displayed is ...

GALAXY S

cyanogen (mod)

... and nothing else happens.

I had to remove the battery to get the phone to work again.

I tried to enter Recovery by selecting Reboot Recovery from the power button menu and also tried

holding down both Volume Up/Down and the Power buttons but they only

resulted in the GALAXY S screen.

Any advice?

Thanks

Not even using ROM MANAGER will get me to the Recovery Menu.

ROM MANAGER reports that my CWM is v2.5.1

Is there a security setting that prevents one from going to the Recovery Menu??

Did the key press sequence change from pressing both VOLUME UP/DOWN and then POWER?

Baffled.

Carl
[Samsung Infuse 4G] alexischino:
that happens because you have to flash twice the ics rom, before opening new threads you should read the instructions.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] cwmoser:
I thought I had flashed the ICS rom twice.

I followed these instructions:

Coming from Gingerbread (double flash):

1) download rom

2) reboot to recovery

3) wipe data/factory rest, wipe cache, wipe dalvic cache

4) flash rom

5) reboot

6) will get stuck at samsung logo or something

7) simutaniously hold power button, volume down, volume up until your phone reboots and you see the samsung logo - as soon as you see the samsung logo let go of buttons (but not your phone lol)

8) mount system

9) re-flash rom with no wipes

10) reboot and enjoy

Was a little confused about "8) mount system" -- should it have been mounted or unmounted?

Anyway to get CWM installed now?

This is how you should do it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndC39t1AE-k&feature=youtube_gdata_player if you are having problems do a fresh flash
[Samsung Infuse 4G] cwmoser:
I thought I followed the video and instrutions just like shown.

Anyway, to reflash I don't have a Recovery Menu. So, do I set the phone

to Download Mode and use Odin?

If so, in Odin do I use the PDA button to select the ICS Rom?

Thanks

Carl
[Samsung Infuse 4G] alexischino:
I think you should go back to gingerbread using odin and then flash the ics rom this way you will have a clean installation.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] cwmoser:
Took your advice and started all over.

Was able to get "BeanStalk" Jelly Bean OS installed on my Samsung Infuse.

I went back to installing Gingerbread using PIT, PDA, and PHONE files using ODIN3.

Then installed Gingerbread with CWM using ODIN3.

Followed Video carefully and got ICS installed with a working CWM recovery menu.

Found the "BeanStalk" version of JellyBean and got it installed.

Had some trouble with the Launchers (Holo, Nova, and Trebuchet). They continually

crashed with "Unfortunately, xxx Launcher has stopped".

Every action caused this Launcher to crash.

Somehow I got it to go away.

Thanks much for you assistance.

Been a real learning experience delving into this technology and its arcane terminology.

Still, a rewarding effort.

Thanks again,

Carl

Hey all,

I'm totally new to all this and need some help. I have a SGH-T989 galaxy s2 and am trying to use it on At&t towers. I've read a lot about this on the forums and things aren't any clearer.

Hi,

I'd like to introduce Pingjam, a new ad system for Android apps.

When you add Pingjam SDK to your app, your users that choose to activate it get a Caller ID feature, in which they receive on their phone dialler the name of the business that is calling them. We also show *relevant* ads if we have them - for example if a user calls for Pizza, he may get a coupon offering 50% discount on a different Pizza. We show only relevant ads that are helpful to the users.

What you, the developer, get, is a fixed payment of $1 / day for every 1000 active US users.

Well be happy to answer any questions here or on our website.

Regards,

Ran.

[Nexus 7 General] GabrialDestruir:
So apparently google play is effectively voiding my warranty through them because I decided that the slight screen lift I was noticing on my nexus 7 some 6 months ago in my opinion wasn't worth going through with a full warrant replacement. However now that the lifting has gotten significantly worse and I've decided to get the issue taken care of they've said they can't do anything about it and that I have to go through Asus instead to get my device repaired.

Any suggestions on how to get them to just replace the device as opposed to me having to go through Asus?

Manufacturers don't just replace the device if it can be fixed it will be fixed, Google are correct here and Asus must attempt a repair
[HTC Sensation] TapeState:
Hi, this is my first post here, so apologies if I'm doing anything wrong.

I recently flashed the Jellybam 10.3 rom by following instructions from one of the admins on the site. But that left me not being able to make/receive calls or texts, even though the status bar showed that I had signal. When I tried to search for mobile networks in the phone's settings, I was left with "Error whilst scanning for networks". So I searched around for a little bit and tried this fix: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2348361 flashing the topmost file (that was the appropriate one after using the terminal command in the first post.) After this my network, EE, shows up when scanning for networks like before. But when I try and connect to it, the phone just says please wait for a while and then says that it can't connect to the network. I am now left with no signal. I have tried full wiping, flashing different ROMs and restoring previous backups, but to no avail. I am really stuck as for what to do now. I'll provide some information which may be of use here (from the About Phone section of the settings), but please tell me if you need anymore.

ROM: Jellybam v10.3

Android Version: 4.3

Kernel: 3.0.97-Sultan-Kernel-r32 Sultan #1

Recovery: 4EXT 10.0.0.5 RC9

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that menu, but nothing seems to make any difference. While I was out earlier today, signal appeared on the status bar.

If you have the apk file in your system/apps already, look in the widgets as this is were it will show..if the weather is not showing on your home screen you have to add it like you add a widget as this is the way i had to do it as i also tried that transparent weather apk that did not work for me, it should work with a reboot..but it might have to be added like a widget in case the rebooting part does not work. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Nazmi Leo:
What do you mean 'you have to add it like you add a widget'? The widget also not showing at the widget drawer. I dont know how to solve this problem. I tried many ways but dosent change anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Once you have the apk file copied back to the system/app folder it will show up in widgets..well it should after a reboot and you find it in widgets and hold your finger down on it and it should go to your home screen and then you release and it should be on your home page.

But if it is no showing up in the widgets drawer then that is weird..the weather apk file you have in system/apps folder is ithe permission set to rw-rw-r-- and you can use your root explorer to set the permission and reboot and see if it works then..if this does not work then I am kinda baffled on this. :)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] duckienbts:
I used XDAII. In recent days, after hard reset and installed some software, when each soft reset, my device had the warning: " Can not find 'loader'(or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and all the required libraries are available." I didn't know what is loader.exe, and the way to solve this problem ?

Could anybody help me?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] levenum:
Did this error occur before you installed the software?

One possible cause for such an error is if some software you installed has a 'loader.exe' file that needs to run on startup (after soft reset). If this file was installed to a SD/CF card the system can't find it during startup.

If you have software that needs to run on startup you should install it in main memory.

If this doesn't help try posting some more details: does the problem occur on a clean device (right after hard reset), what programs did you install, etc.

Good luck!

if yes, is there any other simpler method to return to stock without wiping it?

or if there's any easy way to backup the data first?

thank you.
[Sony Xperia ZR] shteren:
which data?

pictures and music etc you can just copy to your computer, the rest of the stuff there is app data and android files, if you switch from CM to stock keeping those files won't do you any good.

you can make a nandroid backup with cwm and restore it later when phone comes back from repair.

The samsung galaxy note 3's slow motion video is quite bad :(

I tried both 120fps at 1/4 and 120fps at 1/8.

The output is very low quality comparing to iphone 5s slow motion.

Any feedback is welcome.

Do you know a better slow motion app?

Do you have a recommended settings?

nooooo not the slow mo

damn bummer man :rolleyes:(
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projectvirtue:
was that at 1/8? or 1/4. 120FPS at 1/8 is still gonna give you a pretty choppy 15fps even if you export the video at 30

from what it looks like, the iphone 5 usually goes to 1/4 which would still be smooth at 30

i noticed discrepancies in different note 2 slow mo videos and how they did things.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henihazbay:
It was 1/8 but 1/4 is no different.

Slow mo in note 3 sucks unfortunately.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projectvirtue:
I don't think it has a problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BLiCKiLFbM

Here's a video from sam pullen at 1/8 and its noticeably more smooth than your sample

This same also looks pretty decent: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL1BfkzPQ5I

however, like i mentioned above, this would one would look better if he shot at 1/4 instead of 1/8 simply because then you're voluntarily reducing it to 15 FPS.

Additionally, looking at iphone5 slomo videos, it's pretty apparent that their movie editor to set the slomo sections does make use of interpolation. Thus, if you really wanted to use the slomo for anything beyond just a for fun thing, and you're editing a video of a trip or something with slow mo sections, just take that 1/4 footage, run it through twixtor and bam, you can even do stuff like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0Kb1hDdseY

Basically. don't shoot at 1/8 unless you plan to interpolate it.

Apple's slowmo is post processed, so feel free to compare the two after you post process your own

granted, its more convenient the other way, i THINK the HTC gallery might handle that. considering the camera got ported a few months ago, it's possible the gallery will get ported to make help make slowmo clips on the fly.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henihazbay:
Well if you find your example videos decent then we are not on the same page.

I found those quiet ****ty. Event the one with seagulls, the original poster hated his own video.

About iphone5's slow mo, I don't care what iPhone software does. The outcome is 10 times better than Note3 unfortunately. And I find dumb to say ''use 1/4'' when there is a 1/8 option.

It reminded me of people who pretend to be happy about their phone's battery life by saying ''Don't enable wifi and 3g. Reduce the brightness and don't sync your email''
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projectvirtue:
Lol ok there buddy, no need to get pissy. Just offering and explanation and solution to your so called "problem"

At the end of the day, 1/8 will come out to 15 FPS in a 30 FPS video. Have you ever played a game at 15 FPS? Its bad. Why would a 15 FPS video magically be better. No matter what, that fact is not going to change. If a few at 1/8 is smooth at 30 FPS, then there is additional interpolation going on. If you actually have the pride to get something done yourself, figure it out, it's not hard. If you want to sit there and continue to whine in the same tone you just did, then you're more than welcome to return your note and get yourself an iPhone, noone will really care.

Quite franky, if I were to speak like you, "i don't care" if you cant get your slomo to look nice, because I know I will be able to. It's the same thing with goPro slow motion video. Have you seen what the RAW looks like? not pretty. Why do those videos look so good? interpolation and post processing. If there was an App on android that handled that, then you can run off and buy it and stop whining. But until then, you will either have to make do....or abandon it.

Just to summarize things again for you in case you actually want to put some work into it rather than complain.

1) If you want to go to 1/8, you'll need to interpolate, period, that's just how it works, learn some video basics if you need to

2) The easiest way for you to do that with the best quality is using sony vegas + twixtor

3) If you want to go deeper into it, I use premiere/after effects + twixtor.

Doing 2000 FPS shots are pretty fun but basic rules of video apply, none of this is magic.

Also seagulls? Have you never seen a duck in your life before?
