[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
hahahahah, you see that Asus charger confuses me because it says but then below it also says Output 5V=2A or 15V=1.2 I dont want to fry my phone! :D

So you get from 800 to 1300 using the Dk30?

Also, what is the model of your Sony charger. I want to try finding one with USA plug already so maybe that Sony one is the best option for me even though I would like to start going with Magnetic charger myself OR charging an external battery (if I get one) to avoid using the USB port too much. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I got the DK30 bundled with the phone. The charger model is EP880 and it outputs 1500mAh. It only says Sony on the dock itself.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Got ya. Well I decided to get the DK30 even though now I am having second thoughts since some user seems to be having luck just using the magnetic adapters and connecting any usb cable to that adapter instead..but oh well, I guess I will get the DK30 and see how it works out for me. :)

Still trying to decide on that 4500mAh case/battery too! :D

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Sorry have been away for a few days...

amps are fine no matter what the range. So 1.5 right up to 4.0 amps will not damage your device.

Volts on the other hand can damage your device. Don't go above 6v.

You should be able to get 5.v and 2.0 amps out of a wall charger, if not then its not been made properly, or not efficiently

[I have a 2.1amp unit and it suits me fine]

The difference is that your device will pull what ever I can up to a maximum, It look like the ultra can only pull 2200 (give or take) out of a charging unit, so any wall charger that states its over 2.5 amps will be a waste.

-So don't pay extra for anything above 2.2amps thinking you'll get faster charging. You wont.

I got a free 5000mhz solar charger unit sent to me to review. I'll make a video for my channel shortly about this unit. Think it retails for $15 USD. Look pretty good, just need to test it on my ultra in a few days.

The thing with battery packs, is that it needs to be 200% larger than the internal battery. So if your Ultra battery is flat, then it charges off the 5000mhz battery pack, that would mean to it wont fully charge the ultra. It will get to 2500mha, and the battery pack will get down to 2500mhz, and then it wont be able to transfer charge. (Unless you can give charge to pack)

So my solar pack can charge my device to 75%, and then continue to charge it while the solar panel charges the pack..

Does that make sense??

Hello,

I bought a Nexus 5 on release day, and hated the low resolution of the camera output (what you see on the screen when taking a picture). It made it a lot more difficult to figure out if the picture was focused or not (Anandtech pointed this out too). I was curious, with the 4.4.1 update, has the output resolution increased at all?

EDIT: I would check myself, but I sold it a few days after and bought a Moto X.

The camera app is still garbage, but the pictures the phone takes are really good. Its going to take at least another update or two for Google to get the overall camera experience awesome on this device, because they need to overhaul the UI of the camera app. If you can deal with the current UI then you can absolutely take fantastic photos.

[Ouya General] Snoman002:
I had high hopes (very high!) that I could get tasker to run on the ouya, unfortunately I have not had any luck as of yet.

Maps was installed, as was a few files that needed to be manually installed in /system, but unfortunately neither seemed to work.

Has anybody had any luck? Please let me know if you did, I had big plans for this little system and tasker was a key piece to it.

Thanks.
[Ouya General] Snoman002:
Well, apparently I'm batting 1000 tonight on threads.

A reboot allowed instillation of the tasker trial version.

It looks like everything works, or as much as you would expect for the ouya. I did two test tasks. First was just a screen popup, which obviously worked great. The other was a reboot to test root access, and this also worked perfect (say hello to automated weekly reboots!).

Now, to see if autoremote can be made to work, and then on to autovoice or utter! and the inherently difficult prospect that will be.
[Ouya General] drumst1x:
Please periodically update this thread with your progress? Curious to follow suit, though don't have the time to help in the investigations :)
[Ouya General] Snoman002:
A few issues with tasker itself, such as I can't download from Google play, it won't recognize my original order #, i can't find 'my' .apk, basically can't get my purchased version working and am stuck on the 7 day trial version. As for functionality it works great.

Current main task is to start XBMC if Autoremote received a certain message, as well as sending a message when xbmc is open and a different one when it closes.

On my tablet when I fire up the Yatse app, Tasker checks to see if XBMC is running, if not it displays a popup asking if I want to start xbmc. If I say yes it sends a command through autoremote which is what triggers tasker to start xbmc.
[Ouya General] Snoman002:
OK, a few things I have found.

Originally I could not download Tasker through the Play Store as the Ouya showed up as 'incompatible', however after a Play Store crash that removed it from my system, and subsequent reinstall, I can now download it from Google Play. I don't know why this was, but when I first did the play store mod I didn't have busybox installed, I did for the reinstall. I don't need the play version however as I was able to get the 'Trial' version validated, which is good as the direct download has added functionality (that I will never use). To validate the trial version you need to find the 15 digit order number (not the 16 digit Google provides in the email). This is best accomplished by using the 'Contact Crafty Apps' link in the email, and then finding Tasker, the 15 digit order number should then be visible. This only works if you bought Tasker before March 2013 though, otherwise you will need the Play store version (thanks Google :/)

To get Tasker to run you need to be Rooted and move two Google files to the proper location on the Ouya. Tasker will not run without the Google maps framework and oddly enough installing Google maps doesn't install the full framework. You can get these files by flashing the gapps package with CWM, or just install the two files themselves. To get the files unzip the gapps package, I think in the 'framework' folder. You need to move com.Google.android.maps.XML to /system/etc/permissions, and move com.Google.android.maps.jar to /system/framework. This WILL require you to remount /system as writeable. ES File Explorer worked for me (download an old version, 3.0.4 maybe, as the newest Play store version crashes), it was the only free root access file manager to work for me. Remount /system back to the way it was. BTW, I did all of this without adb, it was all done on the system itself with some help from dropbox (unzipped on my nexus, it was easier).

Tasker itself works great and I currently have it sending messages through autoremote to update variables on my other devices, this triggers a popup that asks if I want to start XBMC when I start my XBMC remote app (only if XBMC isn't running). If I select yes then it sends an Autoremote message that triggers a Tasker profile that starts XBMC. I also have Utter! setup to trigger the 'Start XBMC' Auto remote message on my Nexus

My next two tasks will be for an automatic nightly reboot, and a task that sends the Ouya into sleep mode when I start my alarm clock app on my nexus. I'm still trying to think of good ideas to implement. I hope to get a microphone working to use voice commands directly on the Ouya, and my dream is for an IR blaster to work so the Ouya could turn on my TV with voice commands (old TV)

Scenes Working

Hey Snoman002,

I have my Ouya rooted and found a Tasker that can be used to mount and unmount NFS mounts. I have the two google maps files installed and have version 4.2 of Tasker installed. When i try to open the scene or even create a new one Tasker closes and goes back to the Make Menu. Have you seen a similar thing with the version you have been using ?

Thanks

Techhhead33
[Ouya General] Snoman002:
Sadly, other than getting it running initially I have done nothing more with Tasked on my ouya.

Your trying to make a scene in tasked? Scenes are really only for overlays and custom menus (drastic oversimplification I know). I fail to see the need for the complication of a scene just for mounting and unmounting. Perhaps you could change the tasker task to a simple popup menu (which now that I think about it may be a scene...). Popups worked for me, but that's all I can say about it.

Sorry, I'm not here much anymore as my ouya just runs xbmc now. I will try and check in more often.

Hi There,

Please forgive me if these questions have been asked before because I have tried searching the site & google for answers to no avail.

I am almost always within range of a WiFi HotSpot at home or work, and frequently use the net, email and MSN functions of the phone, however I don't want to end up paying Orange for unnecessary data calls.

Is it possible to completely prevent IE, MSN etc... from automatically using a connection other that WiFi?

If I were to disable these other connections would it be possible to, on occasion, re-enable data routing throught the operator, then disable once again?

For the record I have the Orange SPV M5000 version of the Universal.

Any advice you guys could give would be gratfully appreciated.

I'm thinking about rooting/flashing a custom ROM on my stock S4 i9505. I have a couple doubts though.

Since I have a UNrooted stock 4.2 ROM, can I just install CWM using ROM Manager or PhilZ CWM from a zip file (like method 1 described in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=39433857#post39433857) and then flash something like CyanogenMod 11?

Or do I have to root my stock ROM first so only then I could install CWM and flash a custom ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skipjacks:
No, you can't use things like ROM Manager to install recovery from an unrooted device.

WIth 4.2 installed you will want to use CF Auto Root in a Windows program called Odin.

This link is for the i9505.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avbluestar14:
Hey everyone,

Whenever I decide to step away from stock and try a new custom ROM (latest being cm11), my phone won't go a day(well, more like 5 hours) without rebooting and hanging at the boot animation. I'm not sure if its the number of apps i install (like 30 including gapps), or something I'm missing, but its not limited to just one rom. I've tried miui, dirty unicorns, revolt, paranoidandroid, all great ROMS, but they don't LAST! :(

I'm really sorry if I seem like I'm repeating an already-asked question, but I've researched this problem and tried suggestions such as going back to stock and retrying, using Darkside scripts to wipe, wiping cache and dalvik cache and rebooting, wiping android.secure or moving apps away from sd card, etc. Nothing works. So for now I'm back on stock and not enjoying it ;) I just wanted to know if theres anyone that might have any idea how to fix this?

Thanks!

EDIT: To sum up the thread so far, now instead of wiping completely everytime this occurs, i just need to do a battery pull to fix it. However, its really annoying to do 3-4 times a day. Another thing I might note is that my device is refurbished(mentioned below). I did more research and found some fix perms script reccommended by Real_Pariah, which was supposed to fix the issue. It didn't. :( Also same problem does happen with stock, I've just never stuck with it long enough to find out. At UltimaniumX's suggestion, I did a logcat, which is attached on the last post. Thanks UltimaniumX for your help so far!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] UltimaniumX:
So the way I understand it, you've flashed different custom ROMs and they work fine, but after an unspecified amount of time they decide to reboot and hang?

What is the exact process you're using to flash the custom ROMs? As well, each ROM has a specific method to get it working on your phone.

What recovery are you using and what version is it?

What radio are you using?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avbluestar14:
Yep, that's correct. As for exact process, usually I just full wipe everything but sd, then flash.

For my kitkat roms(paranoidandroid, cyanogenmod 11, beanstalk), i flashed used cwm recovery 6.0.4.3. For jelly bean i used either twrp 2.4.4.0 or cwm 5.x(this was in earlier attempts as that was the recovery a guide on galaxys2root instructed me to flash to root stock in the first place). All used radio UVMC6.

Even on stock it happened, but I was able to fix by wiping cache and dalvik plus removing external sd.

When I first rooted, my major issue was getting the rom to get past the animation screen while hanging, and that still occurs, though lately I've been having some success using rom manager from stock to get to cm11(without ext sd). However that does reboot eventually. The first time I was able to fix it by wiping system, android.secure, cache, and dalvik and then reflashing, but it just happened again and that method doesn't seem to be working...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] UltimaniumX:
It's interesting that it's happening to all different ROMS that you install. There's a possibility that it's hardware related and not software related. Though I may not be the best to offer advice (since I've only been here for about a year), I recently installed Beanstalk after going through several troubleshooting steps that I finally resolved.

I know that my friend and I both have an SG2. We installed Jedi Knight 6 (which is an older ROM now) but one of the most important steps that he missed, was that he didn't leave his phone idle for 10 minutes after booting it up for the first time. I recall he had issues with apps not working, force-closing, and irregular reboots on his phone. This may or may not been an issue for you, but for awareness sake I leave it here.

If you want you can give Beanstalk another try since I have some experience trying to get it to work. Beanstalk requires you to use a very specific recovery, and I used TWRP 2.6.1.0 straight from the author's post. I wouldn't suggest using a higher version just because KitKat is new.

- I used INFAMOUS wipe cache to clear everything, and then I did a full wipe (including preload) using TWRP.

- Install Beanstalk 4.4 and the 4.4 GAPPS

- Boot and let sit for 10 minutes.

Once you know for sure that it's been 10 minutes, run the "Android Terminal Emulator" and do a logcat. Here's how to do it:

- Type su

- Type logcat -d -f /sdcard/logcat.log , it will save a .log file where your sdcard is.

- At this point, I guess you would have to leave it running until your phone decides to reboot. Then take that file from your SD and examine it on your computer.

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_debugging_with_logcat

See if that helps. Fixing Permissions may also help reset some of your system settings. If it does the reboot loop, try rebooting into recovery, Fix Permissions, and reboot it again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avbluestar14:
Alright I'll try Beanstalk, nothing to lose except my cookie clicker progress ;)

Funny same thing happened in stock but was fixed in stock recovery with simple data wipe. I remember about hearing someone downgrading to ics because of "jelly bean bugs", so if beanstalk doesn't work out I'll try that!

(Couldn't straight reply/quote cause I can't post links yet)

EDIT: can't find beanstalk thread, at least cant find one mention twrp, so i wasnt sure if i was on the right one
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avbluestar14:
Alright Beanstalk up and running, waited 10 minutes, and ran logcat command, however, it went back to prompt after running, so I'm not sure if its running in the background or if it dumped the current log and stopped. I kept terminal running just in case.

Quick side question, do you know if beanstalk disables long press home for recent apps? When I try long-press home it brings up the bottom menu instead.

Also, thanks for your help :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avbluestar14:
So Beanstalk was running all fine and dandy as usual when a random reboot occured. However this time it actually got past the bootanimation. But, it asked me to set the default launcher again and terminal wasn't working(no text on screen). So I rebooted and whaddya know, stuck at bootanimation. Tried fixing perms, didn't work. :(

I tried wiping cache and dalvik, and reinstalling(which after restarting twrp asked if i wanted root and i said no, maybe thats significant?), nope, now no bootanimation. :'(

I forgot to mention that it is refurbished, so maybe that's of significance? Honestly though, now I'm at a loss of ideas.
