[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] nerdyblonde:
Did the new update to MK2, and after I finally fixed some issues I was having with the Kies firmware update error screen, my phone was working great. I turned my phone off last night to put a new battery in, and when I turned it back on, it booted my home screen, but it was completely black. I can access the status bar, and get to the settings, but there are no apps at all showing in the application manager. It seems as if everything is missing.

I have downloaded the MK2 update, flashed it through recovery as well as adb and it still boots but everything just shows black. It won't let me flash back to MF3 through Odin. After I do a MK2 flash, it boots to the welcome screen, but when it scans for wifi, there is no keyboard to type in my password. I have skipped through that, and made it to the homescreen, but still black. Any suggestions? All help is appreciated!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] nerdyblonde:
I somehow got the MF3 files to flash on my phone, but now when it boots, it comes up with the "Software not authorized by Saumsung has been found on your phone". I can get to Odin mode, but when booting to recovery, the blue line shows at the top that says "Recovery Booting" then it goes to the software not authorized screen.. At the top of the software screen it says secure fail:kernel.. Can anyone tell me we what to flash to get rid of this? I feel like pulling my hair out because I've worked on it so long lol

Update[12-1-13]: Flashable zip added

There are many Jellybean users(including me) who do not get an option to download offline voice recognition support in Google Search app(see image below).

The only explanation I was able to find was that Google excluded some Jellybean devices to download offline files due to hardware limitations(Source: utter! FAQ)

​

I don't know what the limitations are but I found a workaround, and here it is!

The Google Search app downloads the offline voice files in /data/data/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/app_g3_models/<language name>/<offline voice synthesis files here>

To trick Search we just have to place the offline voice files in the directory and set permissions, and you'll have offline voice available on your unsupported device :p

(See next post for offline voice files download)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] arafsheikh:
Downloads & Instructions

Download:

English(US):

Flashable ZIP: Download

Minimum space required in /data partition = 32MB

If you don't have this much space you will get a bootloop, alternatively you can try creating a symlinking.

Non-Flashable archive: Download

Instructions (Only for Non-Flashable archive):

1) After extracting the file you will get a folder named en-US

2) Place it in /data/data/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/app_g3_models/<here>

So it should look like, \data\data\com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox\app_g3_models\en-US

3) Change permissions of all files to -rw-rw-rw- or chmod 666

4) Enjoy

(For people who are willing to contribute see next post)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] arafsheikh:
To-Do

1) Get more language files

Help me in this, someone please upload offline voice files for other languages

To do this zip the folders present in your phone's /data/data/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/app_g3_models/<folders here> dir.

2)Make flashable zips for the voice files

Anybody who has time and experience in creating flashable zips can help. Done.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
Give us the link!

These files are all very large. I had the old one on sdext and symlinked it to /system/usr/srec/. So now, symlink them to /data/data/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/app_g3_models/

EDIT:

Running on an Armv6 device which is a main reason why offline speech recognition not available.

First tried synlinking my previous srec/en-US. Rebooted. FC.

Found the Mediafire link, coaxed that into downloading, extracted the placed on /data/sdext2/languages/en-US. Permissions rw rw rw. Symlinked. Rebooted. FC.

BTW, a few weeks ago when first installing the 4.4 UI thread's version, it spontaneously, got to "initializing en-US.," took my voice and got results! Once, just once. Have the sideloaded recent Play version now. For some odd reason, any search (typed in or dictated using Dragon) will FC when the speech language is en-US!! If I set it to Spanish, then English queries work fine.

Note that during the ICS fidgiting days, they said to set permisions 777 (overkill?).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] arafsheikh:
Symlinking from SD-Card works fine for me. But changing permissions to 777 doesn't. I can only keep it till 766.

I guess your second issue is caused because search might be confusing eng with spanish for some reasons(maybe the files were interchanged, etc) try deleting app data

Also I have ARMv7 still I don't get the option
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mukulsoni:
I am gonna try now :) good job :good:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
Spanish was quite arbitrary. Any English variant would FC doing any query. It is not searching in Spanish nor presenting Spanish language output.

Armv6 is the cause of the FCs. The jni.so, included in the Play apk or pushed to /system/lib, is compiled for Armv7 so will FC on a non-Armv7 device. The fact that offline speech did work one time (do not even know how I got there) means that there is some way around this, but ... find it.

What is your locale? Might not present options outside specific locales. Might use Xposed AppSettings module to switch to a supported locale for Google Search.

Well ... did it work for you? Who knows? Miracles can happen :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] anonymousthing:
It works for me, but not for Google Now in the way that it should. Offline voice typing works (through the keyboard), tested by just going to SMS and dictating a message using the Voice Typing on Google Keyboard. Worked fine (although a bit off since I have an Australian accent).

Google Search/Now, on the other hand, likes to think that we don't have it installed and thus won't actually let you do anything offline. It keeps complaining that I don't have a connection to Google, but still won't let me do offline functions such as setting timers or starting a stopwatch.

Any ideas?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
Check your settings->language and input->speech recognition. How many "Google" entries do you have? I have two, one for the offline, one for the online. I choose the online one (no real way to tell, try.) and all other voice toys work. Choose the offline and Google Search has stopped on any attempt to use voice recognition.

So I can get speech into google now from swype using its dragon (among the better) recognition. I must tap the search to make use of it. This works if the online google is chosen, above.

==============

More. Hitting that mic icon will crash Google Search, with variations. Sometimes, very quickly. Sometimes fails but with "speak now" displayed. If I am inside a search, it even shows the language (Spanish-Espania that I have set because of FCs on any English).

Since a couple of us have actually had it work once or so, there must be a way of getting it, but likely requires the best hackers around (Note: Google, forget I said that! -- YOU support our device).

News Item: Voice Search gets an international upgrade; Xposed API

http://insidesearch.blogspot.co.il/...html?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=pulsenews

Says nothing, nada, about downloading new language models so these must be either included in the en-US or in the apk. Looking at the current 3.1.8 apk's contents shows pumpkins (love Google's naming) for en-US and several European languages (no Japanese but update will have it) more than those in the posting. Then action.punpkin are apparently commands understood by gnow and their UTF8? (not really, probably pure 2 byte Unicode!) representations in the target language. (OK, hackers, this looks like fair play!).

That 20meg+ download contains models for decoding sounds/phonemes/whatever, and possibly grammar rules. Look for an English+ version or maybe that is what we already have. CJK MUST!! have other rules.

So the pumpkins are baked into the pie (the 28th as last week :)) However commands get into the box, they can be interpreted in the included languages. Type them, speak them, or get them there by some other "intent."

This leads the the next News Item http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2554173

The key may lie here or maybe soon will be. The sample plugins provided there work nicely.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] arafsheikh:
The only offline voice action available (at least for me) is placing a call. Nothing else works
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] arafsheikh:
Do you have the latest offline files? The one in the OP is a bit old

If you have please upload it
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
That is not an FC. Looks like a fallback to online recognition (used to be such a thing)?

Maybe not! As I cited, the commands are parsed in the pumpkins. Placing call (or running an app) needs nothing outside the phone. Often enough, I have signin or no-connection errors with Google, unrelated to voice or armv6.

---------- Post added at 10:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 AM ----------

I do not know where to get them. Was hard enough to coax Mediafire to give me the one on the OP. If we can get a sideload of the new GoogleSearch, we might have some idea of what is going on. CJK cannot go off the same models are English and European languages. They are spoken differently, inflections, etc. That apk is not big enought to contain even one of these files, however.

Also, I have no accounts with Mediafire, etc. I suppose I could use my dropbox or drive were I to get these files. Wish Google were not making things sooo difficult. If I install an app "against advice" and it crashes, that is my problem.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
I have the December 7 apk!

Looks no different. No Japanese anything. So maybe this new version is not yet ready.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] anonymousthing:
Yep, exactly what I was getting. Looks like we'll have to find a way to spoof online-ness or spoof presence-of-language-pack.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] arafsheikh:
I read somewhere that the update was server side, so there isn't anything in the apk
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
Everything is/should be server side, including the UI for new cards instead of needing upgrades, but ...

Off-line voice recognition is client side by definition and CJK is simply spoken much differently than English and Western European languages.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] daclothe:
I used quickshortcutmaker to get to the hidden language pack screen so I know it's there. Wonder if that will help anyone else that's poking around with this stuff.

Please explain how you did this? The picture in this case does not replace 100 words of good instruction.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] anonymousthing:
1. Get this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut&hl=en

2. Go to activities tab (should be the default when you open it up)

3. Filter for the word "Google Search"

4. Open the Google Search tree

5. Should be there, but not sure because I haven't got Google Now on my phone. Only the crappy HTC normal voice search replacement.

Side note: anybody know how to get Google Now on a Sense device? :(

I had MD4 de-odexed. Flashed to MK3 odexed as mentioned here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1910947&page=745

Now, every so often, I get the little "down arrow with a line under it" notifications in my notification area. There are about 20 files that I had downloaded prior to my upgrade. A long time ago, I moved those files off of my sdcard/main memory to my external SD card.

When I pull the notification bar down, it lists the files (e.g., 'dollar.jpg') and says "download complete". But when I click on it and choose an app to complete the action (e.g., "Gallery"), it says "unable to find item" and exits.

How do I get the notifications to stop popping up? Do I need to copy those files back to internal memory and move them back to the external card again?

Edit: new files are being stored in "storage/emulated/0/download". I forgot to mention that a few months ago, I installed "Link2SD" to free up some internal memory on my 16GB Galaxy S3. Maybe that's the problem...

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superhumanx:
HI

I am new to xda community and to android community as well.

I want to root my phone n7100.

Note: 1. My warranty is up (here it is for one year )

Note :2. Don't care if knox counter shows x,y,z, etc after flashing.

After going through many threads in the forum. Everything boils down to the following choices of rooting:

1. Directly flashing CF-Autoroot using Odin, this will keep intact the stock recovery along with providing root access and installing Supersu.

2. Flash Philz touch recovery and then install via the recovery the supersu zip file for gaining access to the root.

My question is which is the best way to go about rooting since I'll be taking away the root virginity of the my N7100.

PS: I also want to keep my options open to flashing custom rom (probably at a later date )

Thanks and sorry if such a question if already posted.
