[Nook Touch General] LisainNewcastle:
Hello: I followed the directions on this site to root my NST. The only reason I wanted to root it was to be able to download public library books directly on the NST through the Overdrive app. I was successful in rooting, but cannot get the Overdrive app to work. By reading the other threads here, I learned about a site that had an older version of the Overdrive app that is supposed to work with Android 2.1. After downloading the app and trying to open it, I get the message "there is a problem parsing the package." I searched this error message and found I was supposed to go to "settings--applications and then click on the option to allow non market apps to be downloaded. However, the "settings" on my rooted NST does not have an "applications" tab or option to go to. Any idea how to get the Overdrive app to work or what I am doing wrong?

Thank you.
[Nook Touch General] hshsh:
this error is related to API version of program. perhaps you can decmpile apk and low API to 7 (Android 2.1)
[Nook Touch General] LisainNewcastle:
Hshsh, thanks for the response. However, I am new to Android and do not understand your response . . . could you dumb it down for me?

Thanks, Lisa
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Well a short explanation is that you have to take apart the .apk and change the required version of Android needed to run it.

You'll want to search this forum for apktool, the program that takes things apart.

apktool d someapp.apk \someapp
edit \someapp\AndroidManifest.xml
apktool b \someapp someapp.apk
jarsigner ...

I have OverDrive on my Nook but the reader is trash.

The OverDrive DRM and the Adobe Digital Editions DRM are incompatible,

so you can't load a book with the OD and read it on the stock Nook reader.

I still DL to the PC then transfer library books.

It's on my big list of things to do to look at this.
[Nook Touch General] LisainNewcastle:
Thanks for taking the time to answer and for your response. I will start researching this but was hoping it was going to be an easier fix.

Did you get Overdrive 2.3.0.1? That should install fine without any decompile / recompile.

You probably missed or screwed up the prevent-relock step... do the steps again, and check the value of the registry key before you change it. Betcha its back to 2 or 3 or 10 or whatever your legit dev-unlock level gives you. Make sure you do the prevent-relock part correctly after changing the MaxUnsignedApps value.

I can't get visual voicemail to work it just fc whenever I try to listen to my voicemail. I'm not rooted and i have the tmobile note3 all stock. I've tried reinstalling the app deleting app memory and cache and still no luck.... I've noticed that in call settings the voicemail settings section is grayed out and I can't access it, can anyone help me fix this issue or is anyone having the same problem as me?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Inxed:
I would say it could be a TMO problem, you may not have your voicemail enabled? Can you access VM through the traditional automated system? Also, if you want an alernative, check out YouMail in the app store. Every phone I get, I install that. It's free and you get greetings with no irritating T-Mobile automated messages.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] salmanaman:
Thanks for the reply youmail is a great alternative I'll stick with that and leave the tmobile vv alone.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jcabre5560:
Will it be possible to port the GPE version of 4.4 when it is released? Or will we just need an AOSP version?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] azndan2:
I am also wondering this. Once we have 4.2.2 verizon kernel source, will we be able to get ports of the newer GPE software?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] BreakingVZW:
Give our devs time. They'll hook us up. Always do. Gotta be a little patient.

And to answer your question I imagine we'll end up with both. We have both now. I don't see why 4.4 would be any different. Our Devs are in beast mode 25/8 366 so don't be surprised if we end up with awesome sauce (both).

---------- Post added at 02:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 PM ----------

See the issue is exactly what you just stated. Kernel source. HTC is notorious for being slow with US variant kernels. They have kernel source T-Mo, AT&T and Jank (Sprint) for android 4.1.2 but not 4.3. I emailed HTCDev directly asking about when they are releasing source and that HTC has had a history of violating GPL and that got a response asking for our ROM version, radio version, etc. etc. and was "escalated" up the chain. We'll see if I hear anything. My guess is I won't.

Hi, I am use to the ability to select specific fields of information when sending contact information. Is there a way to do the same with the Note 3? Or is there a good application that can do the same?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dubloe7:
I have a GS3 that was rooted with a CM rom. I was using it the other day and the screen just suddenly went black. I tried rebooting it and popping out the battery, but to no avail. I can't boot it into download or recovery mode either.

When I put in the battery, the phone vibrates but nothing else. When I plug in the USB cable with no battery, it vibrates and the LED comes on for a few seconds before flickering off.

My first priority is data recovery, I've been a bad boy and haven't backed up my data for a while. My second priority is making it so they can't tell I have a flashed ROM when I send it out for warranty service, though AFAIK, this may be a nonissue.

I tried to make a 300k jig, and it didn't work (assuming I got the pins right).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Have you tried KAsp3rd's debrick method?

Stickies in development.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dubloe7:
I'm not stuck in QHSUSB-DLOAD as far as I can tell. Would it still be effective?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Could be. It basically allows you to boot download mode from the sdcard. From there you Odin flash the firmware and hopefully that would fix it. But if it's a hardware failure, which it could be per your description, I doubt anything will work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dubloe7:
New update. I figured out that the 300k ohm resistor trick DOES work, but only for like three seconds. Meaning that they'll be able to see the custom binary count, but (as far as I know) I can't reset it to 0.

The weird part is that it only works if I plug the usb jig into the phone before putting the battery in, if I put the battery in first, it doesn't work. It almost seems like it constantly thinks the power button is being pressed or something.

I guess I'm opening it up and looking for a short. The power button operates normally tactile-y speaking.

EDIT: new new update. I wasn't able to find anything physical when I looked at the pcb. But I verified my theory, somewhat. When I hold home and volume up/down (without touching the power button) when I put the battery in, it boots into download mode for a second before shutting down.

It's not behaving exactly like it would if it was only that though, because I tried holding the power button down on the t999l I got as a replacement, while inserting the battery, and the boot screen shows up for a few, where a boot screen never shows up on the bad phone.

DOUBLE EDIT: can I swap that pcb with the one from the t999l, or are they too dissimilar? Would I be able to swap it with one from another t999, or does the board that has the power switch also have the onboard storage?

TRIPLE EDIT: I answered my own question, the eMMC and the power switch are on the same board. But if the fault is caused by something else (e.g. a camera), would I be able to plug all the other hardware from the t999l into the t999, or can I just boot up the t999 without most of the hardware connected as a test?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I would not risk going through all that trouble. Not quite sure why you would honestly. You got a T999L right? Warranty replacement I assume? It's a superior device so why my not just use it as is?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dubloe7:
1. I really want my data back.

2. I risk getting charged for out of warranty if they see it was rooted and flashed.

3. I'm going to sell it anyways, I got a note 3 because the S3 was on backorder and I couldn't do my job without a smartphone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
1. I'm sorry to say, but plan on this not being possible.

2. If it won't boot there is little chance you'd have to worry about it. They aren't going to go to extraordinary measures to check k the counter. Many people have claimed they sent a dead device back and never got charged, even though the counter had been tripped.

If you damage the good hardware you won't have much to sell.

I don't understand why you'd be willing to attempt to Frankenstein the two devices, but not at least attempt the debrick method I mentioned.

Also, you should be aware, even if it's something else, not a bad chip, it probably won't work. Much of the hardware is in fact different between the two. Different camera, different radios, different SoC....

I wish you luck if you decide to try this, but imo you are taking an awful big risk to try something that probably won't work anyway.

If your data is really that important maybe you should look into a data recovery service.

And in the future, back up back up back up!

Good luck whatever you decide. Let us know what happens.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Reading through the whole thread, I am going to agree with the Doc. Why would you go to all that trouble ? Nobody is going to be able to salvage that data, let alone snoop in it. You are best move on rather than Creating that Frankenstein Monster as Doc aptly put it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dubloe7:
The frankenphone would only have been for if the phone didn't work without the camera/speaker/etc connected. However when I disconnect everything from the main board except for the screen, I get the same behavior. So I guess the only thing I would want to test would be the touchscreen. I can't find any info on if the t999l touchscreen is compatible with the t999 board, but if anyone knows, that would be great.

I'm still going to try the microsd card debrick method, I was concentrating on the usb jig last night since that got me further than anything else so far.

As to why, I have pictures and whatnot on the phone that I want to save, as well as a bunch of work crap that will take me dozens of hours to recreate, plus a bunch of other personal stuff. If I can't get it, then I can't get it, but I want to exhaust my resources (within reason) before giving up.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Try JTAG instead of this if sdcard doesn't work. Most of t999l hardware is supposed to be identical. Since partition are potentially different. So phone may not boot. But you might be able to do adb. Good luck.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Actually it's the other way around. Partition layout is the same (though firmware incompatible) and hardware is definitely different.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dubloe7:
SD card didn't work, looking for jtag instructions.

EDIT: The more I look, the more it looks like a faulty power switch. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like I have a way to short the power switch or something in a way that doesn't void the warranty...

Any help on this is appreciated.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dubloe7:
Well, I think I'm completely screwed now.

I found this, http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...-help-black-screen-vibrating.html#post5262715 and somehow managed to lift the freaking solder pads.

What do you think the chances that they won't charge me a couple hundred dollars for "out of warranty service" are?

EDIT: good news: Confirmed that the cable that I lifted the solder pads on, which I assume is an antenna, probably isn't the problem (unplugged it on the t999l, and it works fine).

bad news: I also confirmed the power switch itself isn't the problem either. The left and right hand side aren't connected (according to my multimeter) when the button isn't pressed, but they are when it is.

Another edit: I unconfirmed the power switch part. It looks like the button only needs the slightest contact in order to short. I removed the power button from the case, surprisingly difficult since I saw people complaining about it falling out. Now the difficult part is making it think the switch is closed for long enough to not turn it on, but not long enough to turn it back off. I've gotten it to the boot logo, but I haven't gotten it to fully boot.

Yet another EDIT: the only way I can get it to turn on long enough to see the boot logo is by smacking it in my hand after it turns on, which seems to interrupt the constant button press signal. From the metering on the switch, it seems that even less contact is needed to turn on the phone than to signal the multimeter. Any suggestions as to somewhere to cut the power switch signal other than the power switch?

Hi Folks

Feeling too happy to report that even GB users can get a glimpse of what Hangout 2.0 performs on android 4.4 KITKAT!!

First of all let me announce the device I've tested it on. Mine is a Dell Streak running GB 2.3.3 Traveller's DSC ROM.

How I did it:

1. I have my phone rooted

2. Renamed existing hangout apk so that if in case i need a backup. Mine was in /data/app folder

3. Moved and renamed attached hangouts 2 apk as "com.google.android.talk-2.apk" (without quotes) - don't know if this a useless step?

4. changed permission of the renamed apk to rw-r--r--

5. Cleared dalvik cache

6. Opened the app and enabled SMS on the prompt and allowed it to collect all existing SMS messages

7. Voila! everythings works so far.

Features:

1. SMS integration

2. More fluid (in my opinion)

3. Online/offline notifier

4. Still exploring the differences

5. Will check if this can be integrated into the ROM itself or not by getting rid of MMS.apk

Need your feedbacks and press thanks if it works for you too. :victory:

Link: here u go! My dropbox shared URL

Came to know that video chat in hangout wasn't working with only the steps above. to fix

1. Download the libvideochat_jni.so

2. Move to system/lib

3. Change permission to rw-r--r--

4. Try video calling. Should work now!

5. Let me know

*NEW ADDITION*

HOLO themed black version (via- makers of Ultima ROM) of the same 2.0.012 version here

IMP: Please do NOT update hangout or else you will lose SMS functionality.

Successful, tha nks

This worked just fine on my Samsung Proclaim with 2.3.4. I had just been trying to sideload the new 2.0 yesterday, and it wouldn't work and I was afraid I might be getting screwed here in the near future. I use google voice extensively, and with the recent announcement that google would be dropping xmpp support for voice, I can tell that it a sign of much greater hangouts/talk integration and I'm a little concerned that my numerous pieces of older hardware are going to be left out in the dust. So, I had tried to sideload the new one yesterday, and it wouldn't work, but following your prescribed steps, it's working just fine now.
[Android Apps and Games] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
This step shouldn't be necessary if embedding it in /system. Hangouts.apk works just as well. Like I mentioned in my ROM thread, I'll have to try this out. If I like the change, then I'll update Traveller DSC.

Have you attempted this with any of the other KitKat apps?

[Android Apps and Games] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
If you don't have to add that file, you might want to check to see if your ROM already includes it.

On a side note, the KitKat version of Hangouts is apparently available on the Play Store, but only for ICS and up.
[Android Apps and Games] jdawg334:
The newest one released yesterday will install on Gingerbread phones. However, SMS has been removed for folks below 4.0. The previous version pulled from the Nexus 5 did put Hangouts SMS on Gingerbread.
[Android Apps and Games] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
One thing the portal article doesn't mention is that Google does version checking on its files. If the API version isn't sufficient what is downloaded is an older version that would work at the given API version. Case in point is Gmail. The current version is 4.6, as my ICS tablet will attest. However on a Gingerbread device, a freshly delivered version from the Play Store will be version 2.3.6.

In the case of Hangouts, the version being downloaded to Gingerbread devices is version 1.1 build 12 or something similar. Only ICS and up will get Hangouts 2.0. So to summarize, it's not that certain features are being disabled (as this thread can attest to) it's that Google is sending an older version of the app to the device.
[Android Apps and Games] Mr.Its:
It's kind of silly really, since the 2.0 version works fine on my Gingerbread ROM. Sending texts, receiving texts, pictures, video etc. Even the holo style settings menus work. Nothing appears badly broken, but from time to time it might force close.

The API support is within the APK, because otherwise it wouldn't allow you to install it. So if google strip that away then they're doing it simply to get people to update to a newer version of Android.

The file here is 2.0.012 (884159-30). The version Play Store will install is 1.2.018 (849105-30).
[Android Apps and Games] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
In one respect it isn't all that silly. Gingerbread is a few years old now and Google wants to focus on Android 4.x. I actually can understand that. What I would like to see, but never will, is Dell going back and making a KitKat ROM for the Streak, especially knowing KitKat will work on the Streak.
