[Verizon HTC One (M7)] CNexus:
I don't just mean signal. I mean in general. You will never find an AOSP rom for a non-nexus device that has

everything

working on par with the stock rom.

There are always things that are slightly buggy, or require some sort of hacky workaround or whatnot.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
Sorry you are wrong neo has aosp roms on the rezound that runs better than sense and data is spot on.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:
Some will say yes, but they are using the subjective "bars" and not the actual dBm to check ratings. I haven't noticed any change in signal when I used it in the past on CM and whatnot.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] TCommander:
I've had terrible signal strength lately (using dBm numbers) and wondered if something was wrong with my phone until I read this. Are there any other threads discussing the issue and possible solutions? If I can't fix this I'm going to have to get back to a locked bootloader and S-on and swap the phone out. -110 signal as a norm just isn't cutting it.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
I don't see the bog deal with the higher numbers. Here are my numbers on sense. They are no difference thsn what you are getting on aosp. One is in a better coverage are where the other is on the front. I notice no difference in performance of the data.

The higher number one had it jump to 116 but does not interfere with tethering. You can try to swap out your phone but doubt they will do it and most likely you live right on the edge of the 4g coverage. My pictures shows sense and those are the same numbers I got while on aosp.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dspcap:
With my Nexus, I sat in a parking lot and went from one Rom to another, I noticed a difference in the numbers and surfing the web.

A kernel developer back then did say flashing various roms could impact signal strength.

I'll bet this topic has been discussed more times than we can count, but it's always nice to get a new perspective. Wouldn't you agree?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:
DBm will change in one location regardless probably by 20 or so. My fnex usually is around 75-100. Not that great I know :(
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dspcap:
Agreed, but I also surfed the web for a while, it was noticeable difference.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:
Yea I know I'm agreeing with you lol.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
You consider 70 not so good?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:
70 is good. I'm on a gnex right now and 75 is the best I can get. Usual is around 90. My data speeds are much slower than my one. Voice isn't as clear either. Though I admit it feels natural against my face the alight curve of the gnex is nice.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
Lowest I have seen was 65 and doing speed tests on the gnex and my rezound at the Verizon store. They have the strongest signal I have seen. The gnex could barely break 10 where my rezound would average in the 30's. Many people complained about the slow data speeds the gnex had.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:
Yea I pull about 15-20 on my gnex 35-40 if not more on my one
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Zwitterion:
The Gnex was a good phone in concept, but so poorly built that I'll never buy a Samsung phone again. Ever. I had to return it 7 times because of screen QC issues. Each damn phone was a crap shoot - would this one have a bad screen, or faulty radio or random reboot? - and once I got one that was acceptable, I'd eventually have to return it because the charging port would start to fail.

Cheap build quality is something that doesn't go together with a high-use product like a phone.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:
Damn boy. That's sounds more like really bad luck. I've never heard of someone getting a phone replaced that often. I've had it three times due to not being happy with other phones or in this case needing to get cash. Never had those issues lol. It seems as though when it rains it pours.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Zwitterion:
If you read the various forums, you'll see the strife (haha, your handle!) so many folks went through with that phone. The saving grace of that phone was that it was a nexus and supremely easy to flash, unlock, unroot, return to stock - and therefore, so many developers putting out stuff for it. Much easier than with the HTC. If that wasn't a Nexus phone, I don't think folks would have tolerated its faults nearly as much. I mean the phone literally would drop data connects during full bars, over and over again. People eventually settled on the fact that it was a bad first batch. But the phones produced later, still had horrid 3G-LTE hand-off issues and pathetic 4G reception. It was just a sh*t phone, sorry to all the fanatics.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:
Pun intended lol. :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] BreakingVZW:
That's about as well as anyone can explain it. :good:

---------- Post added at 06:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:03 PM ----------

Lol right? I avg 80-100
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dspcap:
I live across the street from a vzw LTE tower (about 150 feet), I am at -82, showing 4-5 bars on avg, but my download speed is 20.75 mbps and upload 8.95 mbps. With those speeds, I don't really care what my bars or numbers are.

To my original point, my numbers and speeds were much slower on my S3 when I ran AOSP roms.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] luniz7:
I don't know if signal strength is any different but every aosp Rom I've ran on the one has had massive battery drain. I'm talking 20 percent in 10 minutes with no screen on.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Myrdos:
Since moving to Android 4.3 on my YPG1, I tried the latest Impulse kernels (r3 and r4) on a clean PAC or CM 10.2 install with /efs restored.

As soon as I try to boot my device after installing the zip through CWM, I see "SAMSUNG" on the screen and it freezes from there.

It is also not possible to go into recovery as I get the same freeze behavior, I have to put my device in Download Mode to flash the original kernel to make it boot again.

Any idea as to what might cause this?

/system, /data and /cache have been wiped before installing the ROMs.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Hmm maybe it would be better to actually install the ROM, then waiting that it fully boot then install impulse. Also be sure that you install it from within your sdcard. If you use sideload, please mount sdcard0 before proceeding.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Myrdos:
Actually, that is what I am doing.

Here is an exhaustive step list of what I am doing:

1- Boot into CWM recovery

2- Wipe /system, /data and /cache

3- Install latest PAC zip from external SD Card (sdcard1)

4- Remove external sdcard and select "restart system"

5- Wait until it fully boots

6- Enable USB Debugging and Root over ADB

7- Connect YPG1 to computer, run "adb root" and "adb shell"

8- Connect external sdcard, cp -r .../sdcard1/efs/* /efs/ and exit shell

9- Reboot to see that everything still works (with ext sdcard in)

10- Reboot into Recovery

11- Install Impulse-r4.zip and select "restart system"

12- See that the device freezes when the screen turns on with "SAMSUNG" written on the screen
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
You need to install the Impulse on the sdcard0 and also you need to be sure that sdcard0 is mounted prior to install your PAC zip too.

Update- If you are replacing your camera on your Tmobile Galaxy 4 Don't know about the other models make sure to not order the one most ebay sellers tell you is compatible with every model because is not and you will have to end up sending it back...... Double check you are getting the one I posted so you don't waste your time and money!!!!!!

So I dropped my gs4 broke the rear camera well camera is not entirely broken it displays just a white image...... But lets me switch out to front camera without no problem app doesn't fc or anything..... So I went ahead and ordered a replacement camera which said it was compatible with all gs4 devices when I received the camera i saw some difference by the plug but I didn't think it would matter " I ATTACHED SOME PICTURES " Well to make the story short when I connect this camera and try to open the camera app it gives me an error of connection failed or can't connect along those lines..... And makes the camera app close not even letting me switch to front camera or anything..... I tried this a couple of times reconnected my old camera connected just fine camera app worked fine.... connected new camere it just won't connect..... I'm figuring we have to use the version of the camera on the tmobile is different..... Here are some pics comparing them both

I RECEIVED THE TOP CAMERA AS THE REPLACEMENT THE DIFFERENCE IS THE TEXTURE THING BEFORE THE CONNECTOR IS WAY SLIMMER THAN THE TMOBILE ONE.... I BELIEVE SINCE THE OTHER ONE IS THINNER IS NOT MAKING ANY CONNECTION TO THE BOARD..... THE BUTTOM ONE IS THE ORIGINAL AND A PICTURE I FOUND OF A TEAR DOWN OF A TMOBILE GALAXY 4
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Any1 ever had to replace their camera ?????
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Android_Monsters:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Order a camera that said it was oem from samsung and compatible with every model galaxy 4.... I will be returning it and making sure I get one exactly like the one on my phone now

I have a few phones I'd like to fix the cameras on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Toleraen:
The camera you took out looks like the same as the ifixit teardown; they did the ATT version. They do note that it barely makes contact with the board...not sure if there's something you can do to help 'secure' it in there...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Yeap thats the same one I ordered which wont connect with my phone..... and damn I wonder if there is anything I could do to make contact with the board or just go ahead and order the same one that was on my phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Yea I tried a bunch of times today it won't work even pushing the little connector piece down it still fails u could tell is the wrong camera since the connector that goes to the board literally stays in the air u have to push it down making the other plug almost pop out to touch the board but it won't work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] faiyo:
That sucks bro.. makes the 8/10 repairability score unworkable when there are different components and nothing is documented :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Yea disappointed.... I ended up going on ebay now and found some1 selling a camera from a tmobile galaxy 4 and order it dont wanna take the risk of getting the wrong part again..... if u look on ebay some sellers list their camera compatible with just some galaxy 4 some list the same camera compatible with all of them be careful when u order a replacement camera lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Btw received a replacement tmobile camera connected it and camera started right up so the other camera deff doesnt work in our phones be aware........
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] basqxl:
The same problem solved!

Hey guys,

I had the same problem and was getting message that camera is failed to lunch. However, I ordered at one place the camera for my SGH-M919 and it worked. Since XDA does not allow me to post links, I would suggest to write me a private message and I will share the place where I bough the camera. Hope, it helps because many sellers on ebay keep saying that all S4 cameras the same which is not!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Yeap this is deff true
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdapowerapps:
I have not replaced the camera but this is just a suggestion so take it with a grain of salt. Maybe you can use some solder to make contact if it is too thin?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
I literally put a thin piece of paper to make it lift up so it would touch and is not enough even if u press them together they won't connect..... I would suggest just looking for the tmobile version and just plug n play
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdapowerapps:
Well, solder is a metal alloy. Not sure paper is a viable option.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
I know but what I'm trying to say is I held both sides the camera and motherboard part together and it still won't connect why go thru all this hastle if you are going to waste money and order the part might ass well make sure u are getting the correct one is not like these companies are giving their products away for free

So I needed a phone in short order and resorted to craigslist (tried Swappa first but the phone was not as described...). The phone is fine except it has the hardware camera defect, which I doubt the previous owner knew about. Given I purchased it through a third party, is there anyway I can make a warranty claim to get a new One hopefully without the hardware defect? If it matters, I also have the Total Equipment Care $6.99 per month with $100 deductible.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
No one knows for sure if the defect is hardware or software.

Reading through the general HTC One forum thread in the camera, it seems more likely than not a hardware problem. Reports of replacement phones with newer build dates don't have as many problems. But that's not what this thread is about.

Hi folks,

I'm trying to subclass windows in another process (basically, I'm looking to capture keyboard and mouse events for a text prediction application). I've injected a dll in the process with keyboard focus (using PerformCallBack4), but have been unable to actually subclass a window in the target process.

My DLL performs the SetWindowLong(...), which appears to work (returns the previous window proc handle), but my wndproc is never getting called.

If anyone has any suggestions as to what I might be missing (or doing wrong) I'd be extremely grateful!

Thanks,

Mark

PS I've already succeeded in getting hardware keyboard input using a low-level keyboard hook... The problem is getting SIP activity and, ideally, mouse down & drag events.

Argh, well never mind me... great first impression...

I just noticed that it works fine. The breakpoint in my wndproc replacement simply wasn't being triggered by visual studio. Putting in some event counters show that I'm getting keystrokes and mouse events just fine. Guess it's on to the processing stage.

What is Universal Root de la Vega?

It is simply a script to create Root de la Vega for any device that has the necessary hooks. In its current state, it should be considered beta, the code is still very messy and may not work in some cases.

What devices are supported?

Just about every Samsung device with KNOX! (Excluding Exynos based devices)

Samsung has caught on and has started patching bootloaders, you can still root, but you will trip KNOX.

If you are running MJ4, MJ7, MK1, MK2 or higher you can still root, but you will trip KNOX!
