This is I think actually related to the ROM but since I have less than 10 posts I can't reply to the ROM thread. I flashed Skynote 4.3 yesterday, coming from Avatar. Everything works fine Except when I start S-note it goes through the initial set-up then force closes (both s-notes). Does anyone have a way to re-install the s-note apk? I've found a few older links but nothing recent.

I have a Kindle Fire 2 (I assume its Kindle 2nd Gen) / It has no camera its 7"s

It has 2nd Bootloader and TWRP (v2.3.3.0) on it

I had a Cyanogenmod ROM on it but decided it needed something new

I can boot into TWRP

I cannot get it to mount as USB

Windows 8 Device Manager shows it as Kindle Fire 2 -- but has no drivers installed

I cannot get a ROM onto this

I run ADB from the KFF Package

ADB kill-server

ADB start-server

ADB Device.......:confused:

Nothing....

Ive tried a million drivers, including the ones in the KFF package, nothing.

I have JDK and Dev Kit installed

I have the custom amazon repository added in the dev kit with suggested packages

Still no Amazon Kindle Fire2 drivers installed

I am in Windows Test Mode and do not require signatures in my OS.

Windows 8, not 8.1

Any suggestions?

Hey, I still haven't received neither 4.4.1 or 4.4.2 updates, but I am not really worried about that.

Still, one of my biggest problems in 4.4.0 is the clipping noise in video recording (1080p) on silence situations, and so I was expecting to hear from someone about this, concerning the two updates?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnny_w:
Hi guys,

I've searched and cannot find anything,

I have recently become the owner of the LG G2 (Great machine) And I purchased an external USB OTG device that allows

me to plug in external USB drives.

The 8Gb that came with it works fine (Small thumb-drive style)

The 16Gb (same small style, Kingston DT Micro).

The 16Gb Kingston reads fine in PC but does nothing in the OTG.

Both are formatted to FAT32....

Have I done something stupid or missed something obvious.

any help would be most appreciated.

Regards,

JW
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PAGOT:
I have the 16GB type exactly this one, works fine. No problems whatsoever. Well its incredibly slow in this age... I like my meenova with 32GB SD better :D.

Either you have done something wrong in the FS. Try again to format it to FAT32 then. Not sure what stock supports, try also exFAT or NTFS. Also try to jiggle it? More times inside outside, inside outside.

Or the drive is bugged. Does it work normally everywhere? Try to copy data on it.

EDIT: Also remembered I do have 2 OTG cables, and with one of those, the drive needed some persuasion.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnny_w:
Thanks Pagot.

The 16Gb USB works in everything *except* the G2.

Other 16Gb larger usb drives work in the G2.

So I have no idea!!!!

I've formatted the original 16Gb card to everything and it's mum and nothing. Oh well - I'll just get another one as I'm out of ideas.

Thanks for your help

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] kingofthebraves:
For all you gear owners out there, after months of using it, would you still recommend it? I'm sure a lot of people are still on the fence about spending 300 dollars for a watch

What are your top 3 uses for your gear?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jmorton10:
1. Making sure I hear all my text messages with my custom ring tone. (& and sometimes answering with a custom pre-made template)

2. making sure I hear it ring on an incoming call (with another custom ring tone.)

3, Answering as a speakerphone when a call comes in while I'm driving.

These are the thing I bought it for & it works super. All the other things like weather etc, are just icing on the cake.

Yes, I would buy it again (I bought it on the day it came out) and have recommended it to friends
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] kingofthebraves:
Does it get annoying having to flick your wrist everytime to check your watch? Or did the recent updates improve everything?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] iherbivore:
I only got my gear 2 days ago, but I don't understand the wrist flicking thing. My watch turns on when I bring it up into a position to look at it. No flicking required. I think it is great. I can't wait for the update for the notifications. Still deciding if the custom ROM is the way to go. I haven't seen yet if the NULL ROM affects battery life.

To answer op:

1)Notifications

2)time and weather

3)media control

4) shopping checklist. Currently via evernote but I am hoping for google keep app in the future.

5) I would like a qr code / barcode scanner.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brendo:
1. Picking up chicks (all though not as successful as using glass haha)

2. Notifications

3. Quick access apps

Null_ rom makes it a million times more useful
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Jye75:
1. Notifications

2. Weather

3. Time

4. Covert silent pictures ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] nitropollo:
1. See the time

2. Put my arm on a stupid position to make/answer calls

3. see notifications(o no, i can't with my htc one grrr)

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jordiz86:
I've read somewhere that is possible to connect gear to HTC one... :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] kingofthebraves:
What can you do with null rom? I read the page but since I don't have a gear yet am not sure what everything does.

The whole notification for Gmail, SMS, calendar fb and Whatsapp are now displayed thanks to the update right?

Is it possible to sideload Google keep?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brendo:
Yes, you can sideload anything - even with stock rom. Latest firmware+gear manager means you get notifications from all apps on phone

By using null, you get more of a stock android experience instead of a small/limited menu system from stock touchwiz launcher

Null_ offers stock plus everything in the features list. And if you don't like it, just flash back to stock - simple

Let's just say that I've been testing out a Nexus 5 and because of null, will be returning back to my s4 and the compatibility with gear
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Xirix12:
1) Time

2) Weather

3) Notifications (I almost never hear or feel my phone notifications.)

4) Phone Calls (Making calls when my hands are doing other things, driving, eating, typing, gaming, etc.)

5) Showing off

It does so much more than my old watch!

And yes, Null_ will make it much more useful, but I did EVERYTHING (root and flash ROM) last night before bed so IDK. Battery seems to be unchanged.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] kingofthebraves:
Checking your phone while viewing a notification with ur watch will automatically open the app /message on your phone right?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Xirix12:
If you are not on a custom ROM I believe that's what it does. I can't remember. With Null_ you can read the message and it gives you the option to open on the phone. I believe it gives you the option either way. I am trying to remember because I was on US stock version (Not sure about the number) then flashed UK version (V700XXUAMK7) but was on it for like 5 minutes before flashing Null_.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brendo:
Yes, that is smart relay and can be setup in gear manager

Close. null_ has no effect on the notifications - they behave as they do in stock. Some apps show full notifications and no need to view on device, but option is there
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] kingofthebraves:
Any luck syncing Google keep?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brendo:
I've not tried. It requires internet access though so would need to setup Bluetooth tethering
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Xirix12:
Oh true. I just watched a video and yea it's the same. Since I went from US version to UK version then Null_. I wasn't on the UK version long enough to notice the notifications. That's why I thought Null_ made this possible. This isn't the case for those not on the updated UK version. Before flashing the UK version my Gear would only show who it came from and the option to view on device.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Mkultra77:
1) time

2) notifications

3)hands free phoning

4)run keeper

5)taking photos (hold finger over speaker to be sneaky :P)

6)media control (cool if you got some bluetooth speakers)

I have just had it for a few days now and it is more useful than I thought it would be.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Acud:
hello everyone!

ive been browsing through XDA's nexus5 forums for hours and hours but i feel like my question hasn't really been answered so far. i cant post in the development forum with the faux app thread (i have less than 10posts which are required) so i'm posting in this sub forum.

i got my n5 yesterday and it has yellow tint. the colors look washed out too. question:

has anybody been able to fix his yellow tint with faux app + faux kernel/franco's kernel

? so is it only a software issue (bad calibration) or is it a hardware issue which cant be fixed on our side?

everything else seems to be fine so i dont really want to RMA it now and get 3 other faulty RMAs with dead pixels or rattling buttons like some other people on XDA.

thanks in advance! :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Synyster06Gates:
How yellow are we talking? The Nexus 5s are noticeably more warm than most other phones out there, but they are more accurate when it comes to color reproduction. Unless it's MAJOR, then I wouldn't worry about it. You'll get used to it. Then there's this... which I don't know much about.

My colors also looked a little more yellow after the update to 4.4.2, can anyone else confirm this ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Acud:
it's definitely noticeable and quite annoying. the colors also look washed out and the entire display isn't as sharp as it should be (i think this is related to the general color/gamma problem). compared the color to my nexus S and you could directly see the difference. but i would say that ive seen much worse displays on pictures in the defects thread and other threads on here and that's why i'm hoping that it's fixable

yes, that's the app that ive linked in my first post. i'd be very happy if someone who has/had yellow tint and tested this app could post in here :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Synyster06Gates:
Samsung displays are known to be VERY oversaturated. I came from the S3 and I thought it was a great looking display. When I got my N5 I thought it was okay, nothing great. Now I love it. If I look at the S3/S4 it hurts my eyes it looks so bad!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxpower7:
It seems to be an issue that's affecting a really small subset of devices. The screen on my phone isn't yellow at all - in fact, it's just about perfect. I've read that people have been able to fix it by installing Franco's kernel, which makes sense because my screen gets too blue when I install it. If you make a yellowish display bluer, it should look normal.

[Sony Xperia ZL] scifan:
RSSI signal strength is more meaningful than the number of bars... need to check the RSSI value. (would be helpful to see what it is on your device vs a Samsung S3...

I personally didn't notice much difference when I gave my wife my old S3 and switched to a ZL.

IF you have a PC, you could use something like xirrus's wireless tool to check the signal strength...

So... check your RSSI signal strength and compare with other devices... it could be isolated to your device, or it could be a ZL issue.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Boosted_01 R:
My ZL WiFi reception is great. even at 50ft through my house from the basement to outside I still get 1 to 2 bars, and that's on 5Ghz (which it range is shorter than 2.4Ghz)
[Sony Xperia ZL] pedromsouza:
It's 2.4 Ghz... from my ZL I get -81 RSSI. I don't have my old device to measure it...
[Sony Xperia ZL] scifan:
-81 isn't terribly good...

With my current wireless network (I'm on the 2nd floor, access point is on the 1st floor - probably about 25-30 feet from me, using wififofum to gather rssi info, I currently see ~ -62dbm on my C6506, I see -68 on a Samsung SGH-I747 (AT&T S3), and -57dbm on a old SGH-T989 (T-Mobile S2).

(and I have metal framing between myself and the access point...)

So... In my particular situation, the S2 has the best signal strength, the ZL is next up, and the S3 is actually the worst of the 3... (as the number gets larger, the signal strength is worse...)

This is my experience... it doesn't mean that what you've experienced isn't wrong... it could be that there's something wrong with your phone... honestly, my sample size is too small to be meaningful... but just saying that's what I"m seeing from my collection of old/new phones...

If your access point has external antenna's, you could try adjusting the antenna orientation...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpowerlight:
Hello,

I am analysing Apps and their permission usage. I'm only interested in the permissions defined by the Android OS itself. I want to define following trust level to apps using permissions.

Trust level 0 - normal permissions

Trust level 1 - dangerous permissions

Trust level 2 - signature|system permissions

Trust level 3 - signature permissions

A high trust level means more dangerous permission usage. But I think there is a problem:

Only apps which are signed with the same key as the android os can use signature-level permissions.So one might develop a malware app which uses a signature permission but the app cannot use this permission. For an app using signature|system-level permissions it is easier to cause damage because a user might use this app while his smartphone is rooted.

So what do you think. Does my Trust level rating make sense? Or does someone propose another metric?

Hey guys.

I have recently flashed my phone with the insert coin ROM, and for some reason i am now missing my HTC car app, which i use a lot. im not sure if i accidentally selected it to uninstall, im pretty sure i didn't, but as it is not there i assume its something i have done.

I am just wondering if it would be possible to re install this app with an APK, or will i have to re flash my phone to get it back.

If not is there any similar apps that I could buy that would do the same, or a better job.

Hi

My wife bought a Note 2 (N7100) in China, second hand. I thought it was stock, so I tried to update it manually (official update) with Odin. But of course it was rooted and with some chinese ROM (my guess since I saw chinese charachters).

That didn't work so I proceeded to install a custom rom. After trying over and over, my phone would not recognise the SIM no longer (it worked before I started out with this mess). I have basically tried installing multiple roms (4.1, 4.3, 4.4), Odin fails when trying offical roms, multiple modem zips etc. Dont know what to do.

Problem is that I can not get the PCode because there is no connection with the SIM. IMEI is on the back of the phone, but trying *272*#IMEI-code# doesn't give me nothing because i just get fail. Trying to download a official rom from china over baidu.com, but until now no luck. What would you do? Right now its a phablet with wifi, nothing else. Anyone have an idea how to fix this little mess I put myself into?
