Hi!

Ater long searching i found the apk to install XBMC for JB 4.2.2 . I suppose its also works for android 4.0+.

Before installing download MX player free + MX Player Codec (ARMv7) from Google Play.

Run MX Player. Choose Settings , Decoder. Activate S/W audio. Close MX player.

Then install XBMC . The name of the apk is: xbmcapp-armeabi-v7a-debug-2013-03-03-no-neon-xaf-touch-dce2095627b1caf6efc4ea0a937e40f295130409.apk.

Sorry, i am new here, so i can not post links at the moment, but you can found this apk on XDA ( Android Development and Hacking > Android Apps and Games > [APP][2.3+][Weekly Builds] XBMC For Android Nightlies)

Playing video's can have a video delay with HD files (720+), so i use 480 without any problems. I am trying to solve the 720 resolution.

(Thanks to Michael Crosson)

Have Fun!!

I was really annoyed with my JJ as I did not know that the USB connection for syncing also charged the unit. When my JJ was new I was using the USB link for trying a lot of s/w and therefore was charing my JJ for short periods of 5 minutes a number of times. With my Exec I had worked out how to sync with BT. So I did what you shouldn't do I did not charge the Exec until the battery was down to about 20% and then for the next three charges i waited until the Exec was down to around 15% charge. Now after 4 full charges I find the battery of my Exec lasts much longer (my estimate is 20% better at least), especially now that I don't keep PIE running in the background. My Exec has no problem lasting a whole business day while the JJ struggled.

(note: the Exec uses a O2 3G SIM while I used a Vodafone 3G SIM with the JJ. I am not sure how significant the battery drain can depending on the 3G coverage/operation as I would say the Vodafone coverage is much better)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gubbs:
Its a Li-on battery isnt it? Not Ni-Cad.

This means it doesnt respond well to being almost or fully depleted.

Best to keep it topped off on the move if you're working longer hours just plug it in at the office or during the board meeting.

I can however tell you that the USB charging is pants on mine and unless you plug it into the mains it wont charge at a rate sufficient to not actually drain the battery.

This could be because I dont have USB 2 and am using a low power iBook.

But I found it didnt work well at all, best to use the mains adapater and stick to the USB for sync.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jah:
@gubbs, I am aware of the theory behind Li Ion batteries but I have now tested the idea of not charging fully the battery after purchase on my Nokia 9500 for which I had two batteries and I could compare the effects. The difference on the Exec battery is less than on my Nokia. I don't fully discharge the battery I just avoid the first full charge (why bother when your battery is say 70% charged anyway from new) and I avoid the frequent charges from the USB (my USB is fine, it really does charge faster than the Exec can drain the battery). I have also found my battery now seems to be drained less when using WiFi, which normally kills my PDAs.

I have Verizon Galaxy Note 3 and Ativ Book 9 Plus.

One feature I was looking forward to was SideSync.

Ativ Book 9 Plus came with SideSync preinstalled.

But then there is stupid verizon with removing Samsung Apps.

Well, long story short, I do have Samsungs apps now and I do have Sidesync and Phone Screen sharing apps installed.

I connected the devices via USB cable that came with the Galaxy Note 3.

I ran Sidesync on Ativ Book 9 Plus and did recognize that Galaxy Note 3 was connected via Sidesync.

When I tried either keyboard&mouse sharing or Phone Screen Sharing, it fails :(

I tried to contact samsung through live chat that their dumbdumbs don't know what they are talking about.

"Sabrina" was her name and said "oh, try to download SideSync through Play Store"

Anyhow, did anybody have success using SideSync with Verizon Galaxy Note 3?

I've had the same trouble, got an ATIV book 9 lite, galaxy note 3. I downloaded the apps from Samsung. I can use the mouse and keyboard sharing ok, the phone screen sharing will work only when I am on wifi that is on the same router, like at home.

I can't use phone screen sharing on wifi at work where there are multiple nodes even with the same wifi name. must be a MAC address thing.

the phone screen sharing app won't connect via USB, it's connects for a second then fails:(

both apps work great on my Galaxy note 8, on wifi and USB. it's obviously a Verizon thing..hope there's a fix for the usb thing soon with the phone screen sharing app

Just like CM, it all depends on maintainer availability.

[Paranoid Android Q&A] Pirateghost:
You will need to ask for support in your specific device's forum. A dev would need to port it because as it stands, PA only supports Nexus and Oppo Find 5 officially. You will find that some of the team members maintain other devices, but if it doesnt exist in the PA downloads section on goo/their website, it doesnt exist in an official sense.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datphoneguy:
Hi all,

Would really appreciate some help here in regards to my unrooted Telus HTC One currently running Android 4.3 (latest version)

Haven't really done anything in particular with this phone - using it the way it came out of the box essentially.

At least 2-3 (sometimes even more) times a day, the phone randomly reboots (typically while it is sitting on standby - i.e. not being used)

This problem popped up out of nowhere, and I don't have the slightest idea what is going wrong with it....I've also reset the phone, downloaded the apps from scratch and hoped that would take care of the problem but no dice.

I've taken a screenshot of the latest error log (pls see below), but I'm unable to decipher it and see what (if anything) is the problem with it...does anyone understand, based on the log, what may be wrong with the phone? There doesn't seem to be a whole heck of a lot of info to go from on that report.....

thanks in advance.

How did you fix this problem? Got exactly the same problem!

Just had it send to htc for repair, but all they did was do a reinstall of the software.

Did not fix the problem.

I tried a new sim card and even without a sim card it randomly reboots or crashes 2-3 times a day.

Hey guys, I just had an issue with TWRP on my Cappy Glide.

When I flashed Liquid Smooth [ROM] earlier, I wasn't able to flash the Gapps with it, because it said the zip file couldn't be accessed.

Now, I thought maybe it was just the Gapps, so I always have a few spares on my internal and external SD cards, but all of them had the same error also! Luckily, I had a backup of CM. Anyways, any help?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] AndyYan:
Temporarily use CWM 6.0.1.2 and see if that helps.

Sent from Google Nexus 4 @ CM10.2
[Samsung Captivate Glide] LaizureBoy:
To do that would I just flash the CWM zip file in recovery?

Or will that mess up my phone?

Still kinda getting into the groove of flashing... Sorry. :D
[Samsung Captivate Glide] AndyYan:
Yeah go ahead and flash CWM zip directly in TWRP.

I am new to Heimdall. I am running it on a Windows 8 64 bit machine. Heimdall does not see the tar.md5.gz file....it seems to be looking for a tar.gz file. What am I doing wrong or what do I need to do. Thanks. This is a great resource to have,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Download 7-zip or winrar. Then extract the tar.md5.gz so it leave you with just a tar.md5. Then either:

1. Rename it to a tar, extract the files, and customize the package you want to flash using heimdall then heimdall will make a tar.gz for you

or

2. Rename the tar.md5 to tar, then using 7-zip in the right click menu or from the 7zip file manager menu select "add to archive" and under archive format select gzip.

Alternatively you can use the tar.md5 with odin, but I highly suggest using heimdall instead. I've had odin flash the file for me, but more often then not it fails for this particular odin tar.

So the file includes everything a stock Dev ed official Odin image would right? The red partitions are there even though you could not manage to flash them..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Yes the red partitions are still there. But as to whether it includes everything? Technically no, the cache.img.ext4, persdata.img.ext4, and hidden.img.ext4 arent there yet. Im going to have to look more into hidden.img.ext4 because Id include it but. As far as cache.img.ext4 and persdata.img.ext4 I haven't come across a clean copy of either yet. I thought about just usings MDK's but ill look into it more before I include any more partitions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skeetch79:
Upon opening Heimdall I notice that I have the options to Load Package, Flash and Utilities but "Create Package" is greyed out. How does that become enabled?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
I haven't used Heimdall in Windows but in linux you have to go to utilities, click detect device, then select save as and save the .pit file. Im not sure if the Windows version of Heimdall has a command line either but if it does you could also type the equivalent of this:

Then go to the Flash tab and under pit click browse and open the pit file you just downloaded. Then click add-->select a partition name-->click browse and navigate the the selected partition file-->Then click add. Now you should be able to use the Create Package option.

This is a great resource and compilation for Dev S4 owners. Have you made anymore progress with this or found anything more? Thanks again for all your hard work and dedication
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Well I haven't heard from anyone regarding where heimdall is failing. I also haven't confirmed if people on Dev s4s that took the ME7 update were able to downgrade back to OYUAMDK or not. So far the radio and kernel along with sbl1-3, rpm and tz have been proven to work. I know recovery should work, as I'm able to take it apart successfully, and the build.prop says OYUAMDK. I'm hoping aboot works, aboot is the partition I'm waiting for results on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skeetch79:
I thought

I was pretty much stock with root (stock recovery and boot images from Bait-Fish and yourself in the other thread) but I constantly had the custom and open lock icon screen when booting the phone. I was reluctant to load ROMS at this point without any sort of safety net (I did make a nandroid early on in case) - even though it is a developer phone and that is what you are supposed to do :)

I wanted to try the package you put together so I played it safe and just created a Heimdall package to flash the Boot and Recovery only. Flashing went great and now when I boot the phone I get the Samsung S4 boot screen along with the word "official" under about phone->status in the system settings. (if flashing boot and recovery did not work then i would have went as far as flashing the system.img.ext4 - so now I don't have to)

As I said, I flashed both the boot and recovery images posted by Bait-Fish and yourself in the other thread and stayed on a custom status but somehow these boot and recovery images did the trick.

Thanks again.

If you need me to test anything out please let me know.

It would be nice though if the S4 Developer Phone could received OTA's and/or have KIES recognize the phone. Being on MDK we are two builds behind the consumer version with no official way to upgrade and catch up. could I flash the consumer ME7 or MI1 build without worrying about locking the bootloader and my dev phone? If so, then could I always ODIN or Heimdall back down to MDK if I wanted to?

Edit: the recovery and boot images I downloaded from bait-fish were identical in size... does that make sense or should they be different?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wtherrell:
I can think of no circumstances where I would want my Dev Edition S4 to receive OTA Downloads. I want to avoid those. That is why I bought a developer device to start with. When the Devs have had a chance to see the updates features and incorporate them into new ROM releases that is soon enough for me. If indeed the OTA could be had without locking down the bootloader, I still would not want to accept it. So much goodness in custom roms. I don't consider myself behind at all if I wait for the latest updates to be incorporated into the Roms.

But TEHO, I guess.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skeetch79:
I hear you! What ROMS are you running and usually how do you go about installing them? (i.e. install custom recovery then flash the ROM as a zip?) I am pretty new to having a developer device and navigating around it. Does Hashcode's SafeStrap work for our dev device? if so, which version? Sorry I am asking so many questions, I am still a n00b, still green, getting my feet wet, I want to make the right decisions and do the right things without royally screwing anything up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
In regards to your question about installing ME7 or MI1 I would highly advise against it. We're currently trying to see if someone who already took the ME7 update on their dev phone is willing to test and see if this package will take them back to OYUAMDK, specifically if it will allow them to flash an older aboot. It does not work on consumer ME7 devices, but until we have confirmation from someone who is already on an ME7 build on their dev device, id hold off. As far as custom recovery...I believe you guys have the ability of using loki and/or just regular non loki'd twrp and cwm right? Id use those before I would use Safestrap at this point; more compatibility. Also if you wanted to be on the latest build why not install a ME7 rom? VRUAME7 stock root deodex is already up. I was working on the MI1 stock root deodex rom, but got side tracked lol. Its pretty much done, just cant get wifi to work all time yet. Oh and about the recovery and boot imgs and different sizes, they should be identical the only difference is I trimmed the padded areas, basically the same as you would get from an official Odin image.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] equake:
Thanks for your hardwork on this build. I'm slightly confused about this business about a Dev Ed device taking a ME7 flash because its my understanding that this ROM never came to our devices OTA nor thru KIES/VZW Updater. Unless someone took one of the Factory Images of ME7 posted here and flashed it there has been no official new ROM for the Dev Ed.

Since the Bootloader is unlocked any Custom Recovery can be pushed to the fone thru ODIN and rooted by flashing SU. The only question is will the ME7/MI1 ROMS re-lock the bootloader if ODIN flashed???

my 2 coins
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Thats what im hearing. Ive been told that dev edition s4s that manually flashed the me7 odin image have become locked. But flashing a rom? No that wont lock your bootloader. Im talking about people who flashed odin images on their dev devices. I just don't want people to start upgrading to ME7 or MI1 when I can't guarantee they will be able to go back. Lets also be clear on what we define as rom and factory/odin image.

Rom = boot.img system.img

Factory/odin image=modem, bootloaders, system.img, kernel, recovery, 7-8 other partitions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wtherrell:
Currently running Hyperdrive rom. For custom recovery I go back and forth between TWRP and PhilzTouch (non Lokied). To flash a rom I download the zip to phone. Run Titanium. Back up Apex & Nova Launcher settings & desktop. Then boot into recovery, make Nandroid backup, factory reset, flash rom according to the instructions in OP of rom thread. Dev Edition really has no need of safestrap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpcalhoun:
+1...what he said!

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 AM ----------

Hey Skeetch79, I'm in the same boat as you...new to a dev phone and new to a sammy. I agree with what Surge says about safestrap. I think you're better off using TWRP or PhilZ recovery. I personally us PhilZ Touch Recovery and have had absolutely no issues with it. There are some good ROMs out there that you can try. Make sure that your kernel matches the type ROM you are flashing. An AOKP kernel might not work well with an AOSP ROM for instance. ktoonses has both 4.2 and 4.3 AOKP and AOSP kernels if you want to try them. Some ROMs will come packaged with a "preferred" or "recommended" kernel, but that doesn't mean you can't flash a different one if you want. I usually go with what the Dev recommends or includes in the ROM package. I think the sequence for flashing is to flash the ROM then flash the kernel if different from the kernel your running or the kernel isn't packaged in the ROM.
