[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeUsesAndroidDevice:
I wonder why upgrade to Android 4.3 installs dialer on tablet

which is a data -only device.

After had upgraded to Android 4.3 we noticed a new app installed which was not the case before the upgrade.

4.3 installs voice dialer.

We wonder why, one can not use tablet to setup classic voice calls.

VoIP merely are possible. However, as for the voice dialer automatically installed by Android 4.3 we

do not see any possibility to say which is our VoIP app.

What is the sense of voice dialer on data-only device? Any ideas?
[LG Optimus 2x] BigBlarg:
Hi everyone!

First of all, sorry if this as been asked, tonight my Google skills didn't help me find an answer.

A friend of mine owns a LG Optimus 2X (P990) bought from Fido in Canada. Currently she's on Gingerbread and would like to update to ICS (which is the latest stock rom available from what I read)

She wouldn't get the software update OTA so she tried downloading the LG Updater software from LG directly. The software detects the phone and says an update is available.

At some point, a popup appear suggesting to make a backup. So far, everything is fine. Once the backup is done and she click the "Start upgrade" button, she gets this error message : "An Unsupported operation has been attempted"

Anyone ever seen this before? Is there a way to upgrade her phone without using the LG software?

Since it's not my own phone, I would prefer not rooting it.

If rooting is really the only solution? What would be a good guide to read to do the update? (I did read a few sticky posts... 1 is the all in one tool kit... it explains each feature, but is not really a guide and I still have some questions unanswered after reading it. The other guide I read, the download links are broken)

Thank you
[LG Optimus 2x] sejo789:
i want ICS too on my phone, and use LG tool several times but unsuccessfully, it is like that not working or i dont know...

you can use AIO tool, it is too easy to work with it, just follow instruction and install correct bootloader and thats it.
[LG Optimus 2x] BigBlarg:
What would be the right steps?

Use option #4 to repartition the device for ICS and then option #7 to flash the ICS stock rom?

Thank you, I'll give it a try tonight
[LG Optimus 2x] BigBlarg:
Alright, that didn't help at all.

First of all, I wanted to flash a stock ROM... the guide tells us to install CWM and we got stuck at the part where we have to flash the ROM because it would seem CWM won't take the KDZ (or bin/fls) files.

Now we can go to the SW Upgrade mode without the battery, but the smartflash utility time out after 3 minutes and end on an error.

We can also go to CWM with the battery... but with no apparent way to flash a stock rom.

We're stuck at the moment.

Edit : So in the end we flashed only the BIN file instead of both BIN and FLS. No more errors and the phone rebooted correctly under ICS! Yay!
[LG Optimus 2x] sejo789:
so, problem is solved? or still have some problmes?
[LG Optimus 2x] BigBlarg:
It's fixed! We didn't flash the FLS file (which would be the baseband?) but the phone still booted properly and connected properly to the cell phone provider.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kedaha:
Had a Nexus5 that performed flawlessly on 4G, but wanted/needed the extra battery of the G2.

Bought an unlocked new D820 G2 from Ebay UK. Phone is great except for 4G.

Firstly, it defaults to GSM/WCDMA. I can change it to GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto, but every reboot will reset it to GSM/WCDMA only.

Secondly, when connected to 4G, any incoming call goes direct to voicemail.

Thirdly, when on 4G and making a call, it first drops to H/3G, then loses all mobile internet, and when the call starts to dial out, reconnects to H/3G (but never 4G). Afaik, the D802 G2 should support SVLTE?

I can get into the service menu, but when clicking LTE-Only I get "not supported".

Any ideas what the hell is going on?

The software version, baseband version and firmware version all check out as being UK/up to date - and the phone hasn't been rooted or tinkered with. The SIM is the same 4G SIM that worked fine on the N5

[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deviant.one:
I have a few Galaxy Tab 7 Sprint versions for my kids but just saw the Kids edition at best buy and bought it to give it a go. I like the way it looks and the features it has but as far as I can tell it is just app sets to give it the "Kids" functionality. I was able to root and make backups with titanium backup and with jrummy but cannot seem to install them on my other Tab's. When doing a backup restore it just hangs and never processes and when attempting to install the apk it says it cannot install. Is there anyone out there that is willing to help me dump the rom and work out getting these apps to install on other devices? I know there are alot of people that have been asking for the kids stuff from this Tab and I would like to help in any way I can but I havn't messed with cooking roms since the PPC-6700 WM days and this is night and day from that. Thanks to anyone willing to help.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] cougarcougar:
The hardware and android versions are different in the sprint version of the tab 3. More than likely it is more than just apps needed. Like heavily themed frameworks and systemui apks in the child versions.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Unjustified Dev:
Its the exact same as the t210 WiFi only tab.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Se23:
Yes you are correct. I too would love this before Christmas but I dont know how. The kids tab is £199 with the extras but I bought tab3 7 for £105 with my discounts so seemed like a no brainer as case and crayon stylus were under £10
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deviant.one:
Unjustified, the tabs are almost identical hardware related. There are maybe a dozen apps that make up the kids stuff. Mainly kids launcher, kids camera and then games and time control apps. The issue I am having is getting them to install on another device. Would you be willing to take a look at them if I get them to you?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Russ77:
titanium backup doesn't work well with system apps. if both are rooted, I would suggest the following:

1. copying the kids specific .apk and .odex files out of /system/app from the kids tablet

2. pushing them into /system/app in the other tablet

3. set the permissions to rw-r-r

4. reboot

if you have CWM or TWRP make a backup on the non-kids tablet first. if the apps don't work you can either restore the backup or delete the files from /system/app and reboot.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deviant.one:
Hey russ. Have tried what you said with no luck. Took apk & odex from system/app on kid tab and copied to so card. Then put so in sprint tab 3 and copied to system/app and fixed permissions and rebooted. Nothing was installed on reboot. Am I missing something?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Unjustified Dev:
You could most likely just dump the system.img and install it to other tabs.

I wouldn't mind looking in your boot.img too. [MENTION=5505894]k.aibutsu[/MENTION] thing you can provide commands to dump the boot.img? I wonder if their ramdisk is more organized or is it the same as ours.

---------- Post added at 12:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 AM ----------

Sprint tab is completely differen't . And kid stuff is in framework. Framework-res.apk contains certain files specific to the tablet
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] GuestX0032:
I'm not sure if flashing system will work but it would be worth a try. To dump system use "adb shell" and then

su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/sdhci-pxav3.2/by-name/SYSTEM of=/storage/sdcard0/system.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/sdhci-pxav3.2/by-name/KERNEL of=/storage/sdcard0/boot.img

You can replace the of path to wherever you want to save your dump. To reflash just exchange "if" and "of" (in-file and out-file). Be careful though as you could accidentally override your bootloader partition wich would brick your tab pretty badly...so make sure there are no typos and the paths are correct also on your device (especially the /dev/ path).

You could also download the firmware from sammobile.com but you would have to register (it's not a big deal). You would have to flash (dd) it by hand nevertheless.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deviant.one:
Are you sure it's in the framework? I am not doubting your skill but am just wondering if you have had the chance to look at one or know someone that has. The reason I ask is because I have been looking for a while and most people haven't seen one at all and assume it is always in kids mode but you can switch to normal mode and have a full functionality tablet. I have even removed all the kids stuff and had no issues with crash or anything like that.

I will make the sys and boot images in a few min and upload them and also attempt to put the kid sys I'm on the sprint tab.

Thanks for all the input.

Edit 1: Ok, so dumped the system.img and tried to put it on the sprint tab and it rebooted while processing and failed to make it past boot screen. I am reloading the firmware with odin right now and will post the firmware and boot images once they finish uploading. Also uploading a zip with the 6 apk's that I think will get the kid stuff done.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Unjustified Dev:
You can't switch the systems on those tabs. Only on the similar t210 the lte versions are different and system contains proprtietary things. The kid tablet probably has a certain framework you can port. I also recommend uploading a system dump.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deviant.one:
Yea, Didn't think it would work but tried anyway lol. I was going to get my kids the T210 but when I found out sprint had the tab 7" for 49.99 I saved about $400 getting 3 of them over 3 of the T210 so it was a no brainer. Anyway, system.img, boot.img and the 6 apk's that are the kids apps are uploading now, about 15min left.

Edit 1: Anything else you would like me to pull out while I am at it? Like I said, I will do whatever is necessary to get this working. It isn't a must and I know there are other options but it is by far the best child loader I have seen or used and would like to put it on all my tabs.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Unjustified Dev:
Need full dump of system. Those apps may depend on other files. I won't be able to look at them until I get back in 5 days
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] gr8nole:
This would be much easier if you were trying to port these apps to the T210, but the T217S from Sprint is very different. Different cpu and different version of Android. The T217S has 4.2.2 while the T2105 kids version is 4.1.2. Having the ability to switch from the normal launcher to the kids launcher also means that settings and framework files are also involved. You should be able to get the standalone apps working fairly easily, but the kids launcher is probably going to be much more difficult. Not saying that it is impossible, but probably not going to be easy.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deviant.one:
Yea, I understand that. Hopefully it won't be too hard. I appreciate any help and I am sure many others would be happy for the help as well.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deviant.one:
The full system dump is the system.img I got from the adb commands posted earlier or is that something else?

Here is the link to the system.img and boot img I got earlier. If that is not the full system dump you are talking about then please let me know how to do a full system dump and I will get it done asap.

[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Unjustified Dev:

Well boot.img is exactly like 210
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deviant.one:
Ok. I now also have the full system dump uploaded to the Dropbox like you asked. Thanks again for trying to help.

I would like to see this ported to the 210R as I plan on giving my 210R to my 6 years old .
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deviant.one:
You willing to do some testing? Because the T210 and this T2105 are pretty much identical, you might be able to get it on yours much easier than me moving to the T217S. If so depending on how your comfort level is we can start with the easy tests and move to the ones you might have to odin some firmware to fix. I have fubard my 217 about 5 times now trying diff things but have been able to fix with odin every time so don't think you can do any real damage, just ALOT of time lost.

thanks gr8nole, I have flashed this rom onto a T210 which we bought for our daughter's Christmas, works out £60 cheaper in the UK by buying the kids case and pen which comes with the T2105 and adding it to the £99 T210.

Even if you don't find the time to work out the issues with the Asian language apps, the UI is so much nicer than what's available on the play store and I know my daughter is going to love this present! I have a large catalogue of games and apps associated with my play account anyway, which will be made available to her in kids mode.

Props again gr8nole
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Redonkulous:
Hi gr8nole, I saw your update in the dev section - excuse my ignorance,but how should I install it? Do I need to run right after flashing the rom, or can I run it now the rom is configured? (via TWRP, ADB push, Odin etc?)

If I need to flash again, no biggie.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] gr8nole:
Just flash the update through your custom recovery (TWRP or CWM). No need to flash entire rom again and No need to wipe, it will clear cache and dalvik.

Any mod can close this thread and/or merge it with gr8's rom thread in the 7" section since it has pretty much been taken over for him since I got the full system dump for help on getting it working on the T217S. And kinda disappointed in him, I dont mind him not being able to help with my tab but would be nice to get at least a thanks for the hours I spent pulling a full system dump for him to use. Thanks for all the effort, too bad it didnt work for me. I just went ahead and bought a second kids editi8n for my son instead.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parton720:
Hello all,

I'm sort of new to a lot of this stuff. Especially car audio.

With that said, I'm planning on mounting a nexus 7 in my truck soon, preferably this weekend. I've done a lot of research and read a lot of threads all across the internet. This is where I've decided to ask the questions that remain...

So to start off I've got a 05 Silverado 2500 with a double din stock radio.

Theoretically the nexus 7 should fit, as I've seen it in a video; in a GM vehicle with the same dash and what not.

Next, the main problem/question for me is with regards to powering it. The simplest answer I've found is

saying

I need to know if it truly is that simple.

I've already located what wires I want to use for the power source(a sunroof wire that's live for 10 seconds after the ignition is turned off, even though I don't have a sunroof it is still there) and I've figured out how to deal with the relay... But from there will the usb hub on work right? Initially all I plan on powering is the nexus 7 with a DAC(I've read USB is best?) and a flash drive. I don't have an amp, do I need one for a DAC to work right, it seems like everyone else has one? Again, I don't know car audio and's new ground for me.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks guys,

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GedBlake:
Hi, Ksealy03...

Erm... but before you do that... Whilst fastboot flashing stock Android 4.4 (KitKat), you might want to try changing the USB cable that connects your Nexus 7 to your PC to a different USB port on your PC. Or, possibly even changing the USB cable completely.

The 'stuck on sending image' problem is a commonly reported one here on XDA.

Indeed, I myself don't recall NOT having the problem, whenever I fastboot flash factory stock... it's always the same, "Oh no, here we go again... still sending system image":( after five minutes. It's almost predictable - I just expect it happen now.

Anyway... I then disconnect my USB cable from my PC, reboot the Nexus 7 bootloader... reconnect my USB cable

TO A DIFFERENT USB PORT

on the PC - and begin the flash procedure all over again... and then it works! System image goes over:).

Quite why this happens, I've no idea... but I suspect it has something to do with the size of system image, 'cos everything else (recovery, etc) goes over quite happily, without problems. At some point the fastboot connection dies (times out?), and you have to re-establish it.

Rgrds,

Ged.
