[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] elouisyoung:
ok, an update as I said. I flashed the previous version "jls36i" stock image back, and I'm happily tethering once again on the train :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Paten:
Does anyone know where I have to go on the internet to get an answer from Google as to why tethering is disabled on Kit Kat for the Nexus 7? I've tried to find some place to send an email, have a discussion, fill out a web form, or anything but I can't find anyplace that I'm sure will get me an answer back. I'm not a social media person but I will join one if I can get an answer to my questions. Any help would be appreciated.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] RussianBear:
They've definitely changed something in the past month or two. I was able to tether to my ipod w/o any issues. I hit my 500mb limit today. I figured, no big deal, will just fire up my vpn (L2TP) from the ipod. Done deal, right? Nope. They can still detect it somehow.

I will have to check it out on my pc. I have a hunch they can somehow tell that tethering is enabled on the phone (nexus 5 4.4).

Hi all,

I may soon have access to an Exchange / BES based email system.

I have an unlocked (UK) T-Mobile MDA3 that I'm currently using with my employers Vodafone SIM.

Will I just be able to configure the phone to connect directly to the BES box, or will I have to enable, and pay for, a service providers "Instant Email" service?

Cheers,

Q.

[Moto X General] lithium133:
I was just on motorola.com ... trying to decide whether to buy screen protector (it's gorilla glass, right? Protective film is overkill/un-necessary?)... Anyways, a number of their accessories for the Moto X is on sale. The brilliant screen protector film is $10.47 (was: 14.95). The car or desk dock is now $27.97ea. (was $39.95). There are couple other BT items on sale.... Not sure when sale will end.. so, if you're interested... jump on it!
[Moto X General] kirdroid:
I bought dodo wallet case for $41 (regularly $60)... after shipping and tax came around $50.
[Moto X General] droe411:
Gorilla glass is not scratch proof. I put a screenie on no matter what.

Thanks for the heads up, was interested in the car dock.
[Moto X General] lensgrabber:
Trying to decide on the Roadster Pro or Roadster 2 speakers. argh. Was going to order another dock but they are sold out of it, again.
[Moto X General] jhnl33:
Can't decide if I want the BT Motorola Buds or the SOL Republic JAX headphones.

On one hand, the Moto Buds will let me use the trusted device feature more often and it just looks cool.

On the other hand, I don't want to have to charge my headphones everyday.

Anybody have either of them? What's the sound quality like?

---------- Post added at 07:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 AM ----------

Roadster Pro looks pretty awesome! If you don't mind spelunking the extra 20 bucks, I think it's worth it. The Roadster 2 has a bit less battery life, but the Pro looks like it will be louder and have better noice canceling.
[Moto X General] Wade-0:
Good luck getting a dock at that price. They show them as on sale, but it's impossible to order any of them. OUT OF STOCK. Boy, thanks for the awesome discount Moto! :rolleyes:
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbrizzly:
I have a Kindle Fire with Android 4.2.2.

I am wondering if there is a volume widget that controls ALL of the volume controls with one slider? I downloaded one widget but it had 6 different sliders, I just want one that controls volume for everything.

Also, I have the kindle app installed, and there are no covers showing on my PDF files. On my iPhone the kindle app displays covers for PDF files just fine, what can I do to fix this?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scoobio:
Volume control (Pro)

I can't link it because I don't have 10 posts. If you see this in the URL you've got the right one. id=rubberbigpepper.VolumeControlPro

It has many options for the way it's displayed. The picture doesn't do it justice. You can control the main volume of your device with one small slider that can be on the screen at all times, and you can even pick the size, color, and position of the volume slider. It's the best one I tried for Kindle.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adanrott:
I second this app. I tried quite a few different apps/widgets before finding this one and loving it. I use the free version and it's great. The volume slider you get is easy to use, and you can control the positioning/size/transparency/etc as Scoobio said.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Whoskraiten:
Sort of a noob at rooting and such (I've rooted my Samsung Tablet and have flashed multiple roms) but I am wondering if I run the new installer for Cyanogenmod, is there a way to recover or restore my pictures that I had? I know you can restore apps, but pictures? I have quite a few on my phone and I do not wish to lose them. Like Dropbox automatically uploads all my pictures, but I don't want have them all in a single folder, I like how it is where it's sorted into: screenshots, downloads, camera, baconreader, snapchat. So is there a way to install cyanogen mod and then restore the folders?

[Motorola Atrix HD] ljrg:
hey guys my atrix hd stays in a loop in the bootanimation when I try to mount any rom from JB, I only work one ICS based roms, that problem will have, which peudo do to enjoy a superior version.

my atrix initially came with version 4.1.1 of at & t but I did release the bootloader and downgrade the Motorola Atrix HD Utility tool, JB to ICS 7.7.1Q-144_MB886_MR1-22_SIGNED_CFC from there or I could not upload any cooked rom Basda in JB with rom manager
[Motorola Atrix HD] audit13:
You are sure you unlocked the bootloader? Are you using a custom recovery like cwm?
[Motorola Atrix HD] ljrg:
of course, the bootloader is unlocked, I had already installed before holoblur rom but after a day they reset the phone and it was not the bootanimation so due back to Atrix HD Utility tool to version and from there ICS from any version JB I work, apartede that the proximity sensor and the lighting stopped working
[Motorola Atrix HD] jram0421:
U need to rsd lite the phone or use myth tools to flash stock. Please search for the guide
[Motorola Atrix HD] ljrg:
I have already used rsd lite to flash the stock version:

-->Mexican (MB886_niimx-user-4.1.2-9.8.2Q-50_MB886_NII_TA-2-16-release-keys-NII-MX.xml)

--->at&t (MB886_att-user-4.1.1-9.8.0Q-97_MB886_FFW-20-27-release-keys-ATT-US_BuildA.xml)

but at the end of the process is also a loop at bootanimation. so with the MhyTools,

The only tool has worked for me is the Motorola_Atrix_HD_Utility which leaves me the device in the ICS version of at&t (7.7.1Q-144_MB886_MR1-22_SIGNED_CFC.xml) is functional except for proximity sensors and lighting.
[Motorola Atrix HD] jram0421:
Why not flash the ics then do ota update?
[Motorola Atrix HD] ljrg:
of course, since I have ICS. The one I have running but when I do update midway gives me error, get the android snowman with a red triangle and ends the installation again and again is ICS
[Motorola Atrix HD] jram0421:
Does it tell you what the error is?
[Motorola Atrix HD] ljrg:
anything, download the update via OTA, but when the installation is restarted on M logo, as if the install with rsd lite and mhytools com. not pass the M stays in a loop and restarts.

rsd lite but could mount the ICS rom version of at & t (7.7.1Q-144_MB886_MR1-22_SIGNED_CFC.xml) which starts and runs if I do not understand well because I can not install or upgrade JB stock or cooked rom
[Motorola Atrix HD] ljrg:
someone with a possible solution?, I flash a rom from JB or kikat

either stock or cooked
[Motorola Atrix HD] madhurvyas:
Can you install a different recovery, CWM or Phils and try a factory reset, then install new rom from recovery.

When doing rsd lite do you edit the xml, it may cause some issue.
[Motorola Atrix HD] joel_sinbad:
I know the solution, but I can't explain why:

First, you need to flash the full MEXICAN RETAIL FIRMWARE, then, just flash the custom recovery of your preference, flash any JB ROM, and thats all...

The Mexican Retail firmware has some kind of boot or something, I don't know exactly which files are, that are the same as the RAZR HD, which all the ATRIX HD ROMs are based of... just try it.

I attached the custom XML file for the mexican firmware, replace that and after the flashing, install your custom recovery and try a ROM, you can reboot safelly and without problems, I know there a short solution, you don't have to flash the entire firmware, but I don't know which files are the essential ones... See ya

Not as weird as it may seem :)

At night I listen to music/radio while I go to sleep. I use a cheap phone at the moment but was thinking about getting a 2012 Nexus 7 that I can use for this (and actually use it as a tablet as well)

Will it be okay if it's under my pillows or will the weight/pressure damage the screen?

Thanks in advance :good:

[General Questions and Answers] mysteryno46:
Better sleep, huh?

Ha ha... That is really a funny question. But it should be answered. It won't damage your phone unless you move the pillow below your head above your tablet. :D Use a good cushioned pillow though.

And yes, do turn the airplane mode on. Radiations are not good for your brain. (I'm not expecting more such questions :laugh:) Just kidding brother.

Ohhh God. Why are we discussing about it?:eek: Doesn't it come with Gorilla Glass? :D

[General Questions and Answers] Monkey_Grass:
Just buy a quality pillow speaker , then you dont have to worry about getting tangled up in headphones cables aswell
[General Questions and Answers] 0xC0000142:
I really wouldn't worry about it for clarifications sake and a technical answer to your questions your main concerns would come from the stress your head would apply to your phones screen. More particularly the relation between the compressive force your head creates and the maximum compressive strength of the material in question before failure of that material under load. (Stress= F/A) The Nexus 7 uses Corning Gorilla Glass which has a maximum compressive strength of 800 MPa. That's 224,808.944 pound-forces per meter^2 and your head does not exert anywhere near that number.

Like I said you really have nothing to worry about you won't damage your screen by laying it under your pillow. (:
[General Questions and Answers] Pennycake:
I'm surprised no one brought up the very real possibility of overheating. Sure, you can rest your head on it - but you're smothering it under a pillow and not allowing for the heat it will generate to dissipate.

It would be especially bad if you were charging at the same time - and either way not something I'd recommend anyone do. Why shorten the lifespan of your device by exposure to high internal temperatures if there are other options (like using it with a pillow speaker instead). :)

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] crazy talk:
Looking at getting the Z Ultra, but have a few questions/concerns

1) For those of you using a battery case is your NFC still functional? and if so, to what extent compared to stock or what you would consider 'normal'?

2) I seem to read about hardware issues with this phone more often in this forum than what i've typically seen with my past phones, If you could make the purchase again would you be comfortable buying a Z Ultra with no warranty (used/gray market)

3) are the latest OTA's on this device blocking root access/ custom roms? the phone is basically worthless to me unless i can get CM10 or some other type of AOSP rom on it. If the latest OTA's are blocking root access what build number is the cutoff?

I'll probably have some other questions as well, but this is a good start. thanks for your help.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
-NFC has a 4cm range. So unless you have a sizable case it will still be fine. That said, you would need to be exact when locating the NFC sensor. As you wouldn't just be able to swipe the peer'd device over the back and expect it to peer. You would have to be very close to the sensor.

-Hardware. Mine is in for repair but that's a fault that no one else seemed to have. I would most certainly check out the unit before buying. But I'm sure people would do that with any device that's over a couple hundred dollars.

=I would still buy this device again.

-OTA: You can root each version of firmware. The latest firmware is .257, and its the hardest and requires more effort, but is still rootable. So you'll be able to put CM10 on it, or CM11 on it in a couple of weeks.

=There are issues with rooting tools at the moment and you would need to investigate that when you come to rooting/ or not rooting.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] switchy85:
Well, this is the wrong section for this, but to answer your question: only ICS Sense ROMs. Literally every single other ROM has the low volume on calls, and most have other volume/data/random crap issues. Luckily it seems that on the newest cm10.2 and cm11 ROMs call volume can actually be adjusted, but it's still really quiet.

Basically you have to pick cool new features or proper volume.

Fwiw, I think the senseless skin of dark raider and the blue skin of holics don't look too bad.

[Q] Root De La Vega thread closed, Is this Still Ideal Method to Root AT&T Note 3?

Phone: Samsung Note 3 AT&T SM-N900A

Android version: 4.3

Baseband version: N900AUCUBMJ5

Kernel version: 3.4.0-1625098; se.infra@SEP-121 #1

Build number: JSS15JN900AUCUBMJ5

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi everyone,

This is a general root question thread so I hope you guys can be patient with me as I'm coming from an iPhone.

1.) After rooting a phone with any available methods, I can go ahead and install a stock rooted ROM or custom ROM right? No one specific ROM requires my phone to be rooted using a specific method in order to install it, right? For example: De La Vega root method only works if I want a stock ROM. I can use any ROM i want after I have my phone rooted.

2.) Currently, 3 methods of rooting AT&T Note 3 exists that doesn't trip the Knox counter: De La Vega, Kingo, and VROOT.

3.) Since De La Vega root thread closed, are people still using this method to root their AT&T Note 3?

4.) If I want to unroot and bring the phone back to warranty work, which instruction do I use?

5.) What is MJ1, MJ5, etc? Are these custom ROM names?

6.) I installed the OTA software that was released a few days ago. As long as I use Tibu now and prevent AT&T from downloading future OTA updates, I can go ahead and root my device correct?

---------------------------------------------------------------

The reason I want to root my phone are for these purposes. Can anyone please tell me if these can be achieved after rooting? And if so, is there a guide?

1.) Remove in-app Google ads

2.) Uninstall all the useless apps installed by AT&T and Samsung
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sir_Zuul:
I am no expert here, but nobody has answered so I'll do my best with what I know/understand

1. To my knowledge, custom ROMs on AT&T GN3 are a no go due to the locked bootloader. It doesn't matter which root method you use.

2. I've heard of all three of those methods working, and haven't heard of Knox being tripped yet.

3. XDA approved De La Vega and people still do use it as there has been some question to malware concerns with Kingo/VROOT. I'd go deeper into that, but look up "Kingo Malware" anywhere on the forums and you can make your own decision as it's a well worn topic. With that said, I do not believe De La Vega works with the newest build/update MJ5 yet.

4. This depends on which root method you used. De La Vega has instructions in the thread on how to flash back to stock. Kingo has an "unroot" built into it that I believe works (I believe it because I haven't seen anyone saying it does not, but cannot confirm). Either way, there is a way for those methods to return to stock.

5. These aren't custom to ROM names, these are firmware versions/updates. You may know firmware/basebands from iPhone jailbreaking. MJ5 is the most recent update the Note received from AT&T.

6. Again, to my knowledge, the universal root method De La Vega has does not support MJ5 yet (which is the OTA you have now). Kingo people have rooted with MJ5 however.

You can get rid of in-app and internet ads once you're rooted with a number of ad blockers. The forums have reviews and suggestions, but a Google search will help you decide.

You can also delete the bloatware (extra apps) when rooted. The best way I've found to do this is to first freeze the apps to see if disabling them causes any problems, and only deleting when I know doing so doesn't cause a headache. There are also threads discussing apps that are OK to delete.

I'm using Android as my daily driver now after having used the iPhone primarily for the past 5 years. I've had Android in the past (SII Skyrocket) but the Note 3 just blew me away and made me return the 5s. The forums here are a wealth of information and if you have some patience and read through the threads you'll be good to go. Good luck!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boba7523:
Thank you so much for the wealth of knowledge!

I see where the MJ5 is the firmware version now... It's the last 3 letters/number of the entire baseband version :)

Also, say for example 4.4 Kitkat releases for Note 3 and I am rooted, am I able to upgrade and keep root at the same time? AFAIK, I cannot update OTA if I am rooted...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sir_Zuul:
This is just like an iPhone jailbreak and the answer is usually no. An update tends to break your root in which case you're SOL until a root for that firmware is made.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boba7523:
Awesome.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] econan1214:
Thats bad.

The only thinh you can do to fix that by now is to bring the phone to ATT and make up something so that they know the phone wont work no more. They will try to fix it .. but I believe they cant. Then they will offer you a replacement since its still under warranty. I think thats all what you can do .
