[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cammel:
No, actually it's not on a bootloop, the nexus 7 is up and running fine, the problem I'm trying to show is the graphical glitch that you can see on the video at second 14 when the tablet is booting up between the Google logo and the new color dots animation.

I need to know if someone is experiencing the same problem as me after updating to kitkat and turning it on.

Same Thing

Yeah, it happens to me too.

I only noticed it after a few restarts, but I think it happens every time I reboot.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CatThief:
Yep, same thing here. On my end it looks like light-colored text output on a black background. It flashes by in a split second. Otherwise it boots and runs just fine.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cammel:
Thank you guys for checking this out for me and letting me know!! :D

I was afraid that I was the only one with this problem :mad:

Do you think Google is actually aware of this problem??

I just side loaded the update to my n7. When I rebooted it glitches like that. It looked like 4 boot loader screens, then it went to the boot animation.

Could be harmless.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CatThief:
I managed to grab a screenshot from my own video. Turns out it's the "Backup Complete" screen from the system backup I did yesterday though TWRP. Why on earth would that flash by on every subsequent reboot? Very weird.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cammel:
That's odd, but I don't even have TWRP recovery on my Nexus 7, mine is completely stock.

I need to know if someone who is running completely stock kitkat is having the same issue I have please.

Thanks in advance!

Here's the screenshot of my video

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CatThief:
I actually recall seeing this oddity after applying the 4.4 update on stock recovery, unrooted. I used fastboot commands to flash boot.img and system.img from the Google factory image file. It appeared when I restarted. I didn't give it much thought at the time but did see that it kept happening on each reboot after that. I'm thinking what I saw might have been stock recovery. That's exactly what I am seeing in your screenshot, even the Android lying on his back.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cammel:
Yeah your right! That's the android bot lying on his back from recovery!!

I haven't noticed it! :eek:

So what the heck is wrong here??

Maybe I will try to flash back stock 4.3 image and see if this still happens, and if not, we'll know that is a little bug because of kitkat... Right?

Thanks for all your help!

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CatThief:
I would say KitKat for sure. Nothing like this ever happened on prior updates. Please do report back if you still see it after flashing back to 4.3. I'm assuming after that you'll be flashing 4.4 again.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cammel:
Ok, no problem. I'll let you all know how it went.

I'll flash 4.3 back to check if the problem is still there, and then I'll wait for the OTA and see what happens, cause maybe the OTA doesn't have this problem... But I doubt it... AND if the OTA takes to LONG to arrive I will be manually flashing kitkat again and see if the problem comes back...

I'll let your know! ;)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rico_zuares:
Well I did it and I realized that with 4.2 to 4.3 with the "X" animation this graphic glitch doesn't appear but than even after an OTA update from 4.3 to 4.4.2 this issue came back. Is this normal or does anyone have a solution for this?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsmyth:
*BUMP*

Has anyone any further info on this issue? Granted its not a major one, but just an annoying niggle with what has been a decent update to 4.4.2. This problem along with the ones below are the remaining bugs I have on my stock rooted N7.

Laggy lockscreen when woken up and rotated - Part of the screen get stuck in portrait/landscape while the other has rotated.

When in an app and pressing back to exit out of it, sometimes it bounces back to another app.

Small pixelised graphics glitch at the top of the screen when switching users.

Due to the confusion on how to setup flashcast and install pwnedcast, I decided to make a tutorial Video. Sorry for the crappy video/audio, I need a new webcam.

[YOUTUBE]B6c34jqFHxY[/YOUTUBE]

NOTE: this will work on a chromecast that has not been setup yet, and we recommend rooting a device before setup to prevent any accidental OTA update.

Hope this helps!

also, bonus points for anyone who finds the "teaser" in the video. ;)

[Google Chromecast] mastermind278:
Good Job. I was actually going to do the same tonight, guess I don't need to do it! ;)

I also think it could be mentioned that you could just flash Flashcast and Pwned before ever setting up your chromecast (eliminates the risk of connecting a brand new Chromecast to the internet and getting the update). I just tested it out on a Chromecast I got for a family member.
[Google Chromecast] gbeardmore:
Sweet! I have been trolling YouTube for the last 1/2 hour looking for just this video with no luck. Came back here and "poof", here it is!

[Google Chromecast] manny18pr:
What are the benefits of a rooted chrome cast
[Google Chromecast] wptski:
This might be OT but under the heading of what a CC noobie might do wrong! :D

I have a new CC but waiting on the OTG cable. I'm getting ready so I didn't have a standard USB flash drive but had a USB/xD adapter and a 1GB xD card on which I put Flashcast. After watching the video and the caution about trying to open the USB drive I decided to redo it. Win32DiskImager errors out at 97%, I forget the error number and Windows can't format it either! I was able to put it back into the camera and format it.

Just wondering if say someone tries Flashcast only to find out that they have one of the new bootloaders(which could be me too), what do they do with that USB flash drive or what will format it now? Or is it just something to do with the adapter that I used?
[Google Chromecast] ddggttff3:
The biggest benefit is you get to keep your unlocked bootloader, and gain the ability to flash mods such as Kyocast to get around google's app whitelisting.

If you flash flashcast to a jump drive, and try to boot it on a chromecast that is already updated, it would stay on a black screen on your TV, and the jump drive would never format. You can just re-format the jump drive from your computer to return it to being a normal jumpdrive.
[Google Chromecast] tyrtok:
question, the other end of the OTG cable is plugged into your computer? where do chromecast get its power?
[Google Chromecast] ddggttff3:
yes, I was using my computer to power the OTG. you can also use the stock power adapter if you want.
[Google Chromecast] wptski:
That's if your able to succeed but if it fails do to having the wrong bootloader? Are you still able to format from your PC or right after using Win32Diskimager to put the bin file on the USB drive, are you able to format, etc. then? Maybe using Win32DiskImager the second time corrupted the memory card??
[Google Chromecast] tyrtok:
in either case I must have the 3 way OTG? im asking this because I have the normal micro usb > female USB otg, there isnt a 3rd cable out to power the device. Appreciate your reply.
[Google Chromecast] ddggttff3:
Well if it fails to boot due to a locked bootloader, it will not format. At that point even formatting it yourself (which would break flashcast) would not make it work as the bootloader is preventing it from booting.

For flashing the chromecast you need a powered OTG cable, but some people have reported success using a powered USB hub. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2465642
[Google Chromecast] cadguycad:
thanks very much for the video....i wish i would have had this a few weeks ago when i was figuring this out myself.
[Google Chromecast] gbeardmore:
UPDATE: Followed this video and had both my devices rooted in under 1/2 hour. Thank you!
[Google Chromecast] wptski:
It's not the process or lack of completing that I questioned, it's the condition of the USB flash drive if it fails. It might be better to ask, if Win32DiskImager is used to place the BIN file on a USB flash drive and it isn't used to flash a CC or fails to, how or with what is used to formatted it for reuse?
[Google Chromecast] tchebb:
The flash drive can certainly be reformatted. I've seen reports of Windows being unable to format it using the standard explorer menu option for some reason, which is a bug in Windows, IMO. The format operation is exactly the same regardless of the contents of the drive, and Windows shouldn't be looking at the contents at all. Nevertheless, it doesn't work for some reason, so what you need to do is go into the Disk Management application as described here, delete all the partitions on the drive, and then create a new FAT32 partition which takes up all the space. (If someone is willing to create a guide with screenshots, I'd appreciate it, as I don't currently have access to a Windows machine.)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Derfus:
Ok, im trying to figure out why this phone wont charge or connect to pc via usb. I have done testing on the port, and it appears the port is good. and it seems to be making good contact with the board. I have posted pics of the port and the area that connects to the board. I have checked the continuity from a cut usb cable i have, plugged it in port and have good continuity across all the pins of the port. My question is, are the pads on the other side of the pcb points for the usb port? becuase i have no continuity on any of the points with any pin in the cable. the phone turns on, i bought a brand new battery and screen for the phone, i got it for free from someone and it was completely shattered. I have about 75 dollars invested in it. It works perfectly, completely virgin no root or unlocked bootloader. Running the latest update.

I also posted a pic of the jtag pads, there is no continuity on any of those either to the USB. Nor any other pad on the board anywhere. And i think thats odd, there should be one somewhere.

Sorry if i posted this in the wrong area, mods can move it if they need to.

You try a diffent usb cable? I've tried some of the white ones and they never seem to connect to the pc.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Derfus:
Oh yea, ive done all the obvious things to try and figure it out. When i got it, they said it just quit charging, so i figured it was the battery, so i bought a brand new battery, which came charged, and a new screen, since it was shattered. It turns on, works perfectly, but it will no charge or connect to pc. ive tried 4 or 5 different cables, and ive wiggled and bent and pushed and pulled and everything else on them to try and get a sign of connectivity. So far ive come up with nothing.. This appears to be a common problem with this model, i guess i should have researched it more before i spent so much on parts for it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ADM818:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jlechner:
My usb port took a dump too once. Had to replace the phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Derfus:
As in the port lost connection to the board/broke? or this same situation, where it just quit working for no reason? The port is working as it should, and making good connection with the board. I'm stumped. If the port was broken, i could replace the port, no problem, but im 100% positive the port is not the issue here.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jlechner:
I didn't get into it as deep as you, but my phone would charge yet would not work over data (connected to pc). Repair store was stumped too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Derfus:
Very interesting. I guess i will have to break down and buy another motherboard, i can get the whole phone on ebay for around $60 with broken screens. think thats my best bet.,
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ProcessorHog:
Did you figure out what happened to it? Mine suddenly developed a problem last week and would appear to be charging (charging light on) but it does not really charge. The port looks ok.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] mo.sing:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] kkretch:
Look in Settings\General tab\Users

Samsung released a new OTA update for the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition. The MK1 firmware upgrade adds multi-user mode support, which allows multiple accounts on one device – each user gets their own homescreen, background, widgets, apps, games and more. The software update is also said to significantly improve performance by reducing lag and speeding things up a bit. Unfortunately, to help achieve the performance boost, Samsung decided to remove the custom unlocking animation on the lockscreen in favor of a simplified stock animation. That means no more soothing watercolor or liquid ripple effects. http://www.smartkeitai.com/samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-2014-mk1-firmware-update-adds-multi-user-support-changelog/
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] mo.sing:
Thanks, that was great. Is the update available on the Samsung website? I tried to download the update from the settings menu but it shows nothing .and I haven't received any OTA options?

The watercolor feature will be missed as it was the best so far but I need the added users option more. Will have to stick to my note 3 for that effect.

MK1 DOES NOT bring Multi-user for me!

Well this is just plain BIZARRE...

I've manually downloaded the MK1 Firmware, and installed this via Odin.

I've done a Factory Wipe afterwards too, in case that is the problem.

Yet despite this, and now being on MK1 (confirmed via the About tab), I STILL have no multi-user option (it's not there in the list, where it says it should be. And additionally, I still get ripple effects on my lockscreen too).

So.... Everyone saying that MK1 brings this new feature...

...Is it a SPECIFIC REGION/VERSION of MK1 only that brings this...?

Or is it ONLY the official OTA (for those lucky enough to get offered it), that actually bring Multi-user support?

As my manual wipe and install of MK1 certainly doesn't bring it for me...

(Build number listed as: JSS15J.P600XXUBMK1 - Mon. Nov 11th).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] lsherif:
The only MK1 that got Multi User support was the US Celluar South , download it from sammobile :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Shadamehr:
Arghhhhh - wish I'd known BEFORE I did a complete wipe assuming that to be the problem. Lol.

Anyone know anywhere else to get it, as since Sammobiles went to v3 and a self hosted ROM database, their site is virtually unusable, often gives a Bad Gateway error, is slower than treacle, and all the latest firmware that used to be there under site v2, are all all missing.

More to the point though, whilst my device is wi-fi only, so carrier network support is not a concern, can anyone think of any potential issues or pitfalls to using a USA firmware on a UK device? Any issues to bear in mind, and will it have UK English as a language pack, and Regionale?

Cheers for any advice...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] matapo:
Just bumping to see if there is any new news regarding this.

Is the Multiple-User support still exclusive to US Cellular South?
