I also run TT5 and a Bluetooth GPS (GlobalSat BT388) and I can never get the damn things to sconnect using the Bluetooth setting.

This is the way I sorted it:

1) use Bluetooth Manager to 'discover' your BT device (the GPS)

2) Pair your Device in Bluetooth Manager.

3) Start TomTom (ideally updated to 5.1 or 5.21), select Prefs...GPS Device...Configure and select "Other Serial" and NOT Bluetooth.

4) now select the Bluetooth port (try com6 first, then com5 if offered, you should be able to spot the GPS in the list) I find 3800 baud speed works perfectly for me.

You know you've struck gold when the little wheel starts spinning (it helps to have got a lock with the GPS as this is set up) so if no joy after 15 seconds, select configure again & have another try with a different "Other Serial" port (there should be TWO BT serial ports in the list)

once this is set and it's receiving GPS info, click done and go back to the main Nav screen

Rest awhile & bask in the glory of now knowing yr position 8)

Finally, Exit the program in the normal way, give the PDA a couple of seconds, then start it up again, after it loads it WILL say "No GPS Device!" - DONT PANIC...after a short delay (10-30 seconds depending on the speed of yr device) it should automatically connect to the GPS)

Hope this helps - Joe

P.S. I have to turn my Bluetooth ON before starting TT5, as it doesnt seem to do this automatically like with my old FSC600, but I believe there are BT programs out there that can automatically do that, but seems a lot of extra stuff for what is, after all, two stylus taps from the Today screen! - JP

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kodakmak:
Looking for some help

I am currently running Sprint's OTA 4.3 (MK4) on my Note 2. I have rooted using Odin 3.07 and CF-Auto-Root-t0ltespr-t0ltespr-sphl900.

After every reboot SuperSU is stopped (I assume by knox) until I reinstall it. Then SuperSU works (or at least pretends to).

My WIFI Trev-E Mod starts with errors, so I was looking to flash to LorJay's ROM. Which brings me to deleting/disabling the KNOX off of my phone.

I have root directory access, but when I delete the files you specify, they do not disappear, even though the explorer states they have been deleted and then only the files /system/apps location show at all. The rest aren't there.

I tried rebooting and KNOX is still there and I have to reinstall SuperSU again.

I have also rooted using Android Root in which it says root is successful as well. But with the same results.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
If you are going to install anther rom dont worry about knox. Put phone in download mode and use odin to flash recovery (I suggest philz 6.07.9) but uncheck the reboot option. Once it flashes everything disconnect from pc pull battery. Now the tricky part. Hold down volume up key, menu key, and power key. Now reinsert battery at same time. Ii find it easiest to turn phone upside down to perform this task. Once it boots into recovery just flash your desired rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kodakmak:
Awesome! I will try it now! Thank you!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kodakmak:
So the button combo isn't working. Does that mean the flash didn't work?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ArchangelRenzoku:
I think jlmancuso meant to tell you HOME key, not MENU.

---------- Post added at 11:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 AM ----------

And from stock MK4 the easiest method to root and such for me is just use Google Kingo Root App on PC to root. It will restart phone and then you can install from the market GooManager if you want TWRP (touch) recovery, or RomManager for CWM. I installed all recoveries successfully (haven't tried any philz yet) and can flash whatever rom from there. Less battery pulling and no ODIN necessary.

Then usually I install Titanium Backup and remove Knox and freeze or remove other bloat. Leaves me an almost clean stock experience.

Just in case anyone needs an alternate method.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nvan7891:
Are you rooted?

Use a file manager with root permissions (es file manager works well - turn on "root explorer" under the "tools" tab on the sidebar, then "mount rw" and tap the "rw" radio button for "/system")

Navigate to "/system/app", and delete:

KNOXAgent.apk & KNOXAgent.odex

KnoxAttestationAgent.apk & KnoxAttestation.odex

KNOXStore.apk&KNOXStore.odex

Navigate to "/system/containers/framework" and delete:

KNOXModeSwitcher.apk

sec_container_1.zzzKnoxLauncher.apk

Navigate to "/system/etc/secure_storage" and delete:

com.sec.knox.store

Navigate to "/system/lib" and delete:

libknoxdrawglfunction.so

Go back to "mount rw" tab, and switch back to read-only.

Reboot.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] logicalotus:
what i did on my tmobile note 3 was go through the odin process which only partially rooted it and wouldn't allow my cwm recovery to come up, but at least i could get some rooted apps to work halfway. then i used nobloat to get rid of about 4 knox apks. after that i used ASTRO to search for knox and it brought up 23 files that i moved to another location and zipped. eventually once i figured out that my cwm started working i just deleted the zip file.

So I was in bestbuy today checking out a few cases and the galaxy gear in the new samsung section that they have and the samsung rep was telling me that we are getting kitkat in 2 to 3 months. I honestly dont know if this is true or not but I wanted to post and ask if anyone else has heard anything like that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Warboy:
1) Never listen to any BestBuy Employee

2) KitKat 4.4 has been confirmed for the i-9500 [maybe i9505 same time] with a January time frame.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] amieldl143:
Probably february..Right now stock rooted mja with wifi fix. Everything good..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] frostedunit:
Unconfirmed leaks on other sites have it pegged for carrier release in January. Plus time for them to add their BS and we're looking at late February at the earliest.

But don't get too excited about it. The devices that have received it are all missing various features. Some don't have the transparent navigation bar, nobody's getting the Experience Launcher, etc. Makes it sound more like an incremental update than anything groundbreaking.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] MUFColin:
Expect a wait as always for updates, but you never really know an exact date this early on :/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mderuelle:
Yea I would rather the update come at a later date and be packed with kitkat goodies rather than thrown together and not get the true kitkat experience
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] JoeFCaputo113:
You do realize it's not gonna be a "true KitKat experience" because we don't have a Nexus device, and Samsung will throw their "stuff" over pure vanilla Android (KitKat).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] eskomo:
This is what has me excited. Pure vanilla Android is ugly and devoid of features. Adding Samsung's features is what makes Android at this point. Looking at KiKat on a nexus has me patiently waiting for KitKat to drop on my S4 with all the Samsung additives. Thanks God for the additives.

And Samsung reps are not BestBuy employees. At least that's how I understand it. They do not work for BestBuy but Samsung.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] frostedunit:
That may be true. But the chances of them knowing their ass from a hole in the wall are still zero.

Not really. GPe editions have nothing to do with carrier phones. Be nice if we could flash a GPe rom on our phones though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] eskomo:
I could say the same for 90% of the people on these forums. A hand full of people actually know how to use the phone and the rest just ride the "struggle bus"™ all day.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] frostedunit:
True. But the vast majority of users here don't get paid to sell electronics. Too many Sprint, Samsung, Verizon, Best Buy, Radio Shack, etc, etc "reps" don't know much about the products they sell.

Ever go to one of those places and know more about their products than they do? Most frustrating thing ever. If they don't know about their own products, how the heck are they going to know about OTA dates?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] durandetto:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] eskomo:
Nothing different than a mechanic going into a Ford dealership and knowing more than the Salesman and the cars they sell. These guys don't need to know everything about the product. That would be a very sad life for a best buy salesperson to know that much about every PC and Tablet and HDD and Keyboard and Mouse and Monitor and Wire and Case and GFX card... yadda yadda yadda... catch my drift?

Sure it was frustrating when I went into Best Buy to buy my 4K tv the other day waiting on a free salesman only to hear them giving wrong info about products to customers and them just believing all of it so freely. I had to do my part and speak up a few times while the salesman was away and point them towards Google and show them the correct info. But that doesn't mean they shouldn't work there... it just means I'm more informed before I buy things than most is all.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] JD1zzle:
The BBYMobile reps sell dozens of different phones from all of the major carriers. Expecting them to be an expert in your one phone and its OTA updates is a bit narrow minded.

I have been working around Electronics for over a decade now, always find it funny when someone comes in and expects me to recall exact details about their phone/tablet/laptop/desktop/TV/receiver. I understand that in your world this is the only phone and thus knowing minutia is very doable. But with Samsung having 2 flagships on 4 carriers, HTC having one flagship on 3 carriers, Moto having 2 flagships on 3 carriers, there's no real way for a single rep to know that kind of in depth knowledge.

Hi everyone. I recently got a new phone, the Huawei Ascend P2 on the three network, because it was cheap but the internet speeds are fast so we wanted to use it as a modem in our house that can't get broadband. The issue is when I'm tethering quite often for me the internet will refuse to load anything and when I press reload it immediately reloading the page saying that I can't connect, it doesn't even need to think about it :eek: (If I surf on the phone whilst I can't connect on my laptop it works just fine)

Also other members of my family say they get slow internet speeds even when not at peak time. This is very frustrating and I hoped someone here might have an answer to this.

Anyone using the Tecno Phantom A knows that this phone does not display a full caller image for incoming calls. Part of the incoming call screen is black!

In this thread I’m going to provide a tutorial on how to ensure that incoming caller screen has no black portion.

REQUIREMENTS:

1.A rooted TECNO PHANTOM A

2.Xposed installer. Download link >>> https://www.dropbox.com/s/kj3mreykusbjskd/Xposed Installer.apk <<<

3.Gravity box. Download link >>> https://www.dropbox.com/s/yn8b8yas9g257gs/gravitybox.apk <<<

PROCEDURE

1.Install the Xposed Installer on your phone, and install/update its framework

2.Now install Gravity Box as well, and enable it in the Xposed Installer modules list by ticking the box. Reboot your phone.

3.After rebooting your phone, open the gravity box app and select “phone tweaks”. In the phone tweaks menu. Select “Full screen caller photo”

AND THAT’S IT! YOU NOW HAVE A FULL SCREEN INCOMING CALLER SCREEN! No more black parts 
