[Samsung Galaxy Gear] oh.yes:
I got the same problem too.

Was working with older Gear Manager ver 1.2 with my AMJ9 ROM.

But once I flash to AMK7 rom, i got the same message when try to start my Gear Manager, this message appears on both ver 1.2 and 1.5 Gear Manager with my AMK7 ROM.

I am using S4 zoom with 4.2.2

Could anyone help?

Thanks in Advance
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] DINCguy:
same here

gs4 running 4.3.1 gear manager 1.2 works, but without 1.5 starting up my updated gear doesn't really mean much. Also, my gear settings within gear manager always force closes.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] hussamarafah:
Its a note 3 android 4.3
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] hussamarafah:
Got it resolved :)

Download GearManagerStub.apk separately and install it... that would resolve your problems initiating the gear manager.

But since you are still running on 4.2.2 you will face problems of other sorts I believe like notifications probably...

These issues can only be resolved once you update to 4.3 I assume

Hey guys,

I was wondering if any of you GPe S4 users on T-Mobile could tell if you can use HD-voice with this version. If so, is there any way to turn amr-wb codec on, as it is on the regular TW S4 via service mode?

Thanks

I forgot to ask, is the google play edition sold as one variant or are there 2 variants for each carrier?

Hey ppl,

Im a new kid in programming for pocket PCs.. I use Visual Basic .net 2003.

Does a SIM contain any unique id..? Like IMEI for devices, does SIM card have any..? if yes , can u pls provide me an example solution file to read it..?

I read in msdn for reading SIM' phone number and service provider.. But the download sample was like an installation msi file as usual and after downloading that, it gave me a solution project which i already did..I tink something rong wit my PC..

If u cant make the example solution, can u atleast try opening this download sample in the link and send me the VB part alone zipped pls....?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
Carty: I'm not sure if the SIM contains a unique identifier record, but it will generally hold the phone's telephone number of course. That should be fairly unique!

There is code somewhere on the board I think for reading sim records as an alternative way of recovering SIM SMSs. I imagine the same idea could be used to check for unique ID. But although possible, I don't know if it'd be more helpful then the easy to read telephone number.

String is not set

Vijay tanx for yr reply....

I finally made out tat sample to give me the correct project but now the simnumber is not showing up..

Actually in the form load event

'Blah = newSim.GetServiceProvider()

newSim.GetPhoneNumber()

the above was given and i added the line

msgbox(newSim.GetServiceProvider()) and it showed me the service provider

but the same i cldn do for

msgbox(newSim.Getphonenumber())

as it gives the error: Value type netcf.phoneaddress cannot be set to string. in the debug window

The code for getting those numbers are riten on different class called sms.vb

can u pls help me out wit that..

will this line

newSim.GetPhoneNumber()

alone, wld it notify with a number? im nt gettig any..can u download tat sample and test it? Pls help me..?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
I'm afraid I have no experience with .net, but this is something that confused me for a long time. If there's no telephone number registered in the SIM, it won't collect it.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] argon:
Every sim card has a unique ID, its used to identify the sim card on the network and is used when the phone is in use, because as you say not all sims have phone numbers. This would be ideal for your project, which by the way I would be very interested in. The bad news is that I have never done any programming for .Net CF so I don't know how you would accomplish that.

Hope I have been of some help.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Carty:
Tats wot i need

SIM should contain a unique ID as argon says... Its the way the operator recognizes the SIM..

Anyone frm anywer cld pls help me out to read that unique ID from SIM card with VB.net.. I have no knowledge in C#

Lookin for replies...Tanx in advance..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Charlie VOIP:
Hi

Cant help you with the programming but the sim will not contain a phone number but will contain 2 separate numbers.

IMSI number, International Mobile Subscriber Identifier, unique number up to 15 digits long. the first few digits identify the country of issue and the next the network the fianal digits are the serial number for the network issuing the sim. When the phone makes a call to the BTS this data is sent using the COMP128 algorithm. This is vital as the both the Ki (personal encryption key) and the IMSI are used as a pair to authenticate the sim on the BTS.

It is believed that COMP128 was hacked some years ago but the industry has so far kept quiet about this and has not replaced the encryption system due to cost. But basically anyone with access to the hacked COMP128 algorithm can scan the IMSI and Ki and clone your sim.

Sorry for the Ramble, but the point here is there may be a breach of licence and copywrite if you attempt to read these details from the sim. As it could be argued that you were attempting to "clone" sim cards, which in most countries is a criminal offence.

Also beware about assisting people on this forum who are seeking help on this matter as there are a few virus writers who are rumoured to be compiling a worm like virus to read this detail from sims on windows mobile platforms and use these IMSI Ki pairs to commit major telecoms fraud. Basically they send the worm out there and it harvests the data and sends it back to them.

With this data they can create duplicates of your sim card and install these in GSM gws. These are then used to call expensive international numbers in large production enviroments using 100's of sims running 24 hours per day. These calls are them sold to large telecoms companies netting these people $10,000's per day.

Be careful guys.

Regards

Charlie

All Nexus 5 phones are factory unlocked some one at Bell probably gave him wrong info as they normally only sell fully locked phones from the other manufactures.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
I'm not entirely sure that all Nexus 5's come unlocked - - A lot of folks said that about all previous Nexus devices, i.e., they all come unlocked, but there were one's that came locked (although none of them were from Canada). That said, every Nexus device prior to the Nexus 5 sold by Canadian carriers has come unlocked, if that is any indication.

was purchased under to do any returns or fixes. Save 50 bucks or risk 350 ..go figure
[Nexus 5 Accessories] stuartmc:
I have read all the wireless Qi charger threads and thought my particular insight and concerns may warrant a new thread. I am no battery or Qi charging expert, so please take this with the apppropriate grain of salt.

I purchased a generic Qi charger that is the same as many China made chargers like this one on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Docooler-Wireless-Transmitter-Charging-Dissipation/dp/B00F5STIUK. My concern with this unit, and many of the inexpensive ones being sold, is that they do not shut off after reaching full charge. Some will go to a lower trickle charge, (as I was informed by customer service for the popular Choetech upgraded charging pad available on Amazon), but my understanding is that neither continuouis charging nor trickle charging is good for Lithium Ion batteries. Take a look at the information at Battery University: http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries and you will see that over time, these over-charging conditions will degrade the battery. It is nice to have a convenient charger that allows you to have the favorable condition of many small, topping off charges, rather than more fully discharging the battery (which is a no no), but if the charger does not completely shut off when the battery is at, or near, 100%, it may be just as bad. By the way, according to Battery University, it is also beneficial to run your battery charge somewhere below 100% and of course keep the battery cool.

So I keep reading about people being upset because their charger shut off at night and they don't have a full charge in the morning and then praise the units that apparently trickle charge like the Choe pad. From all the information I have read, this is just plain wrong from a battery performance and longevity standpoint. You DO want the unit to shut off on full charge and you do not want it to trickle charge (excess charging of any amount is not handled well by Li-ion). The units that shut off and that do not charge again without removing and replacing the phone will have less charge in the morning due to standby battery drain. The better units will shut off at, or near, 100% and will automatically charge again when the battery drains slightly. (This is not to be confused with trickle charging, where the battery is constantly at 100%). Its very difficult to find affordable chargers that meet this basic criteria. So far, the Zens Qi charging pad is one of the few that is clearly reported as doing this right.

Because I hope to keep my Nexus 5 for a few years and maintain battery health, I would certainly appreciate additional input on this subject and any suggestions on other charging pads that meet this requirement.

Lithium polymer
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ChazzMatt:
EXACTLY. NOT Lithium Ion.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] stuartmc:
Actually, you are right that it has a lithium ion polymer battery, abbreviated LiPo, but Battery University states "charge and discharge characteristics of Li-polymer are identical to other Li-ion systems." It is about thin manufacturing, not needing a rigid grid. and apparently does not change any of the other characteristics. So my assumptions and conclusions above, still stand.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ChazzMatt:
Lithium Polymer is different, from what I read..

[Nexus 5 Accessories] bblzd:
Easy mistake to make. But as some have pointed out in the other thread that website is quite ancient and does not pertain to modern batteries.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] floepie:
Think first about your USB wired charger. When the battery reaches its capacity, does the charger stop providing current to the phone? Of course it doesn't. It doesn't pull itself out of the wall socket and of course it's not smart enough to know the capacity of the battery. It will always have the capacity to deliver current to the phone's battery, but the protective circuitry of the phone won't allow it.

I really don't understand the concern here.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wyrman:
Sorry you are correct
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MrBelter:
It's actually a lithium ion polymer battery, a cheaper to make lithium ion battery using a polymer electrolyte.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] stuartmc:
I guess my concern is that the Qi charging may be different than charging through the USB port. Do we know for a fact that the phone's "protective circuitry" will stop the current flow in the inductive path? There apparently is something different going on, at least with the Nexus 5, because Choetech support said that charging on their pad completely shuts off with the Nexus 4, but goes to trickle charge on the Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] quentin0:
Any gains would be minimal. You're only delaying the inevitable, you're buying yourself a few extra minutes of battery life for a few extra weeks after many months/years of usage. Just trust the engineers and use the tech as it is intended. Don't twist yourself into a pretzel, leave Qi charging tech or battery tech speculation to the engineers, not people who post in forums. If you care so much about these minimal gains, after a year, you'd probably still care enough to buy a replacement battery to get day-one longevity. It's stupid easy to replace the battery in this phone anyway.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] stuartmc:
Good point, but since you posted here, does that mean that I should discount your speculation as to minimal gains as well? Lol.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Makaijin:
From my experience, the firmware of your phone actually plays a role if the Qi charger turns itself off or not. For example, When I bought my Nexus 4 on release, I also bought a Maxell Qi charger at the same time. When my N4 was running stock 4.2 (i never root), the Qi charger would stop charging my phone when it hit 100%, stays off until it dropped to 95%, where the Qi turns on again to top up. And by the Qi charger turning off, the charging light on my Qi charger turns off too, so it's obviously not feeding it any power. Also the charging electric bolt icon on the phone disappears too. This behaviour on my N4 continued until 4.2.2. When I bought the N7 (2013) which ran 4.3, same behaviour.

But when my N7 was updated to 4.3.1, the charging behaviour changed. Upon reaching 100% it would say charged on phone's unlock screen, Qi charger light still lit, and battery bolt icon still on. Basically the same behaviour when the phone/tablet is at 100% charged with the USB plugged in. This behaviour also happened when my N4 was was also updated to 4.3.1. Note this was still using the same Maxell Qi charger I bought back on N4 release. When I N5 arrived, it also has this same behaviour.

Also I recently bought a cheap China brand Qi charger "Maxpower", when after 100% charge (trickle charging) for a while the phone is a lot more warmer while on my Maxell charger the phone cools down, also shown on my battery monitor app. I'm assuming that the Maxell goes into "low power mode". My conclusion is that the phone does control the charger to a certain extent, but at the same time the charger has to support a low and/or off state, which the Maxell does and the Maxpower does not.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] stuartmc:
This is the kind of information I was looking for, thank you. I think it is important to get the right charger that interfaces with the new firmware of the Nexus 5. Apparently, some charges do it right, and some don't. I too am concerned about the increased heat with the so-called trickle charge like your Maxpower unit. The combination of "over-charging" and increased heat, is about the worst mojo you can have for these types of batteries. As a previous poster stated, it may have only a minor effect over the lifespan of the battery, but since I don't know that with certainty, I just as soon take "the stitch in time that saves nine."

like all nexus devices and on screen keyboard devices, in 4.0 there was a button on the apps which acts as the menu button (its called action menu or something), you only need to look for 3 vertical dots or play with the apps.

the facebook app have its settings on the left tab at the end of all the crap, there you can find the settings

Yup but in messages u cant delete conversations caise no action button.

Should be integrated in 1 button only home button one press then long press brings the task manager.

So is it the same with all launchers?

tiny Taiwan has the elusive options button.

That button is essential for things like search in webbrowser.

sony made in China no options button like Htc in Taiwan has.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve_max:
Honest question. What makes a physical button "essential" for this, and an onscreen button (depending on the browser, that will be either on the navigation bar, on the rightmost part or on the title bar, besides the tab button) not fit? Specially when pressing either of them will have the exact same effect?

Yes, I was used to the TouchWiz way on my previous phones, and I thought that having the menu button fixed on the same position all the time was the only way to do so. Now I see that (a dedicated physical menu button) the same way as I see the fixed menu bar on Mac OS: it has some nice points, but overall it's a waste of good space. Note that the Android application design guidelines asks for an onscreen overflow button (the three dots button). Some manufacturers change the behaviour to remove the onscreen button and assign the same function to a physical key. Some developers screw up the design in epic fashion (Facebook). But there's no way around it: the onscreen menu button is how Android is meant to be, at least since the last major overhaul on ICS. Anything other than that is either a manufacturer's attempt at "differentiation", breaking the expected design of apps, or an app's utter failure to adhere to a very simple set of rules.
