[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] acruxksa:
Maybe it's just me, but I wouldn't be updating via OTA anytime soon. Last thing you need is to go from MF3 w/safestrap to MJ7 wo/safestrap. Might want to wait a bit until someone can have a look at it to make sure it doesn't break anything. Maybe i'm just paranoid though.

Samsung OTA's.........................increasing the value of my MDL phone every time they appear. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] emckai:
Well it all depends on the user of the phone. Maybe he doesn't care about root or custom recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
Why come to a development site if you don't care about root or recovery. Or why ask about "leaked" firmware? The phone will update itself to the next firmware as soon as it is available just fine on its own for people that don't care about modding. The problem is that people are interested in root recovery and modding, but unfortunately, they don't take time to read about things before they try them.

So warnings like the ones in this thread about not having root or custom recovery available or what happens when the wrong firmware is flashed to a phone have to keep being repeated again and again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RockRatt:
I am betting that the other problem for those that took the "Leaked MJ6" may have issues updating as well once the OFFICIAL update from ATT comes out. The phone will think it is on the newest firmware at that time and probably won't automatically update. Next will be to see IF we get a OFFICIAL tar of the MJ6 for those that did the MJ6 leak so they can update to a less buggy/bugless version. So to me it would be best to wait for the update if you want MJ6. Or keep MF3 and use safestrap until the OFFICIAL is in a tar format or has a safestrap version.

Look how long it took for someone to upload a MF3 OFFICIAL tar.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
The problem with MF3 was that there was no leak. All of the files were available to create a TAR except for the bootloader files. You see, once the OTA is dl'd to the phone the bootloader becomes useless to anyone else. The bootloader file(s) have to come from an official firmware source (even if it is a leak of official firmware). It took a leak of the SMART restore MF3 file to obtain the bootloaders. Ofcourse, the SMART leak had all of the files needed so nothing had to be created. Hopefully, the difference with MJ6 is that a leak already exists that includes the official bootloader files. In theory, all that should need to be done is to take the bootloader files from the leak and put them with the OTA files from the official OTA (before it is installed to the phone) and then create the Odin-able TAR file. Basically, creating an official TAR for the AT&T 4.3 release. This all assumes that the official OTA doesn't include a method to block the leakes MJ6 bootloader files...basically, a double q-fuse increment situation. I don't see that happening. In the past, leaked firmware updates have always had compatible bootloader files with their official counterparts. but anything is possible. This should be all we need. Of course, another SMART leak of the 4.3 SMART files would always help. Also, if 4.3 becomes available for the the AT&T version via KIES3, it should be possible to pull the needed files from it, but MF3 was not available, maybe 4.3 won't be either.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMaster:
Hello everybody!

I recently got my Pipo M9 3G tablet, really nice tablet actually.

As I always do, I flashed my tablet with a custom rom, but accidently flashed it with a Pipo M9 PRO rom.

The difference between M9 and M9 PRO is that PRO has a 1920x1080 screen, while the M9 have 1280x720.

The tablet didnt start, ofc, and I realised I flashed the wrong firmware. So I downloaded the right one, flashed it, and got the tablet to boot.

But now, my touchscreen is inverted, and also only responsive on about 1/3 of the left part of the screen.

If you look at my video here, you'll know that I mean:

youtube.com/watch?v=8IY0lCV8Eng (cant post the real link since I havent made 10 posts yet)

I contacted Pipo about it, and they sent me some new firmwares to try, but I never got it to work correctly.

They then gave me the option to pay 70$ to send it to them for them to fix it, but as the touchscreen itself isnt really broken I thought I'd turn to you guys first to see if anyone may have the answer to my problems.

I'd like to believe it has something to do with the drivers for the touchscreen, but as my knowledge about android isnt THAT good, I may be completely wrong.

All help is appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Bluetooth ActiveSync Setup

That's what I've been missing...

I've done everything except to start that "Bluetooth Activesync Setup" in Settings->System->Bluetooth Settings

For anybody else who have been failing to activesync with bluetooth, this may be the one you miss. I wonder why PocketPC doesnt come with this service setup from the factory.

Thanks for the information SkizZO!!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] SkizZO:
Yes! in particular AFTER the click on ActiveSync BT Settings, you HAVE TO PAIR your PPC with your PC.

If after tapping "ActiveSync Settings over BT" in BT Settings, you close the new window with Bluetooth activation/rules, you break ActiveSync setup, then no BT connection will be estabilished!!

I spent a lot of time to sync via BT, and the solution was really really simple!!! :shock:

Hey guys,

I flashed cm 10.2 yesterday and since then a lot of apps are showing up as not compatible with my device in play store. I have tried wiping everything and reflashing the ROM and gapps but no luck. I have also tried xposed framework play store module. When I enable "No restriction" patch in it, I can see install option in play for these apps but when I try to download any of them it gives error 942. Also, when trying to install this way, the permission list in the install popup is empty for all these apps.

Please help me out if anybody has any suggestions. I need to use cm10.2 coz I need jb 4.3 because of its BLE feature (which I need for using g shock app :) ).

Any response will be highly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello,

The MTK6589 found in many phones has 4 PWM outputs. I think these are used for light sensor, etc.

I would like to use one or more of them to control a servo motor.

Assume this is possible in software. Physically, is it at all possible to do this?

I believe I'll need to track where these PWM outputs goes and simply re-rout it to my motors.

Any suggestions?

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cleverdicky:
But not on android it seems.

I use flash for movies on my PC fine using Opera.

But despite all the claims, the various browsers, and numerous versions, It really does look like Flash is dead, and adobe has finally killed it.

Certainly on the HP touchpad and most if not all android mobiles anyway.

So whats going on? Anyone ?

I too have read the thousands of blogs (most are copies of each other) with so called alternatives.

Hell even opera has sided with the devil and uses chrome under its hood for its latest PC versions (and its crap).

Thankfully its far better earlier versions still play fine, and are miles better to boot.

But still nothing for android and the myriad of android devices dependent on flash to play streaming vids, games and other good stuff..

And you only have to start typing 'flash' here on xda in a search box to see the many thousands of searches for the same answer.

So it really is an issue for many people.

But what i dont get, is that this community of brilliantly clever programmers / hackers and developers just dont appear to know where to begin to build a working alternative or a working answer. Is this now the end of mankind or just android ?

Surly if there was a solution to be found anywhere it would be here.

But the fact there isnt, and only a very few worthy for trying but useless alternatives are out there, means mankind will continue to have a problem that can only get worse for years to come :crying:

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Canadoc:
Ok well I would like to get peoples feedback and opinions on their screens.

My story. Broke my GNote II instead of paying to replace LCD decided to upgrade with my carrier.

First Note 3 I bought was bright with nice whites and great viewing angles. But it has the dreaded pinkinsh purple screen tint issue in the lower 3rd of the screen more so on the right side. This is subtle and is less evident in brighter conditions or higher screen brightness. At low brightness and in dark environments it is particularly visible on white and grey backgrounds. Went to store to exchange and they refused given they could not see the defect. I came online here searched around and it seems this has been an issue on the GS4 and people have mentioned it on the new Note 3.

Convinced my carrier to send me a replacement and I will return the original to them. Well got the replacement 3-4 days ago. The unit seems quite different. First off the screen is overall a bit more yellow at face on viewing angles and perhaps a hair less bright at similar settings though hard to tell. The bottom is not color shifted puple. The screen color is more homogenous. However the viewing angles are completely different. Here while the brightness stays goo dlike the first when angling the screen, the colors shift to a more aqua color with minor angle variation. (guessing 20-30*) whereas the original unit has virtually no color shift at almost 90*.

I probably have to send back a unit in the coming day or 2 and make a final decision. In theory I could try to ask for a third model, however it was with a lot of difficulty and threats to leave my carrier that they relented in the first replacement. SO I likely will have to stick with one of these or return both and use my somewhat broken note 2 and wait for something else.

I am wondering if any of you out here have similar pink/purple tint issues at one end of your screen. Or if you have issues with significant white color shift when angling your screen more than 30* in either portrait or landscape. Also if good or bad can you check build date on your phone (should be under battery). FInally did you or will you replace it? Was replacement better or worse?

Also if in my shoes would you go for the better looking screen with the pink issue or the more consistent looking screen that is a bit more blue yellow.

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Canadoc:
I know you did and I posted some long posts there and the thread kind of died.

I have some specific questions here as well as asking what I should do in my case.

I had a note 2 and remember there being perseus kernel and with STweaks one could shift color etc and make it how you like. I am thinking going with the more uniform color model as I am sure the slight yellow tint can be corrected and the blue tint on viewing angles is no worse than my note 2 looking back so I will get used to it I imagine. That said the first screen really has great screen but the purplish pink right bottom corner bugs me on white and grey screens ( not noticeable on high brightness though) and often reading on websites etc indoors I notice it enough that it bugs me.....
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Canadoc:
So for anyone who cares here is an update on my plan. The more uniform note 3 is more yellow/green tinted whites compared to the other one that is whiter/redder. That said if I use one of these screen filter style apps that exist in the play store, I can modify the overall screen into however I like.

Downside is that it means a persistently running app to do it with whatever effect on screen longevity and battery.

Now on my Note 2 which is also yellower, I was running perseus kernel and the s tweaks app and was able at the kernel level to modify the color to get better whites. I imagine it is only a matter of time before someone can do that for our note 3. I can handle the viewing angle color shift as the device is in my hand and not on a table when i use it where it might be off angle viewing by a large amount. And even then, the tinting of white has a bluish shift and now worse than a yellowing shift my wifes iphone has off angle or my note 2 did.

Would love tohear from others and what their screens are like and or developers who might have the means of modifying color at kernel level the way Andreilux did on the note 2

You checked 13 notes and 12 of them were either yellow tint or what gray lining issue?

How did you manage to check so many.

Can you check the following. Look at the phone screen face on the tilt either up down or side to side about 30 degrees and tell me if the white on the screen turns bluish.

One of my phones does this and has the yellower whites. The other does not and has better whites but has some purplish discoloration in the lower right part of the phone.

Hello everybody

I have a problem with my phone, today I installed a game, Plants vs Zombies 2, and after a few minutes I was playing the phone has rebooted. Since that time at start up, after 15/20 seconds the phone reboots again.

I tried to do a hard reset but I have not solved anything.

A couple of days ago I flashed the firmware France "H", so I tried to flash an Italian firmware and I redid the hard reset but it has not solved anyway. (Now I have an "unknow IMEI")

I'm trying to do a restore with LG support tool, but the battery was too low then try again later.

*EDIT*

LG support tool has restored the original firmware (brand vodafone), but still no imei and reboots

Any other tips? Could you help me please
