Recently I read that the app taasker can be used to help save battery life daily with your android phone. I looked into it and I can't find any guides that are easy to follow for a tasked noob. I was wondering if anyone had any experience using tasked and wouldn't mind sharing their set up to save battery life.

Thanks in advance.

Hello guys,I know theres many threads about lost imei/sn/efs after this efs v2 came out,but I was trying hard whole day to get my i9300 back,read like 100threads and nothing helped.

Situation :

I had custom rom (s4 revoultion 4.3 touchwiz) and everything was working well, In meanwhile I got my s4 so I decided to unroot/flash stock rom from sammobile with odin,but I forgot about that efs v1/v2 thing. I flashed rom,everything was working except phone says that there is no SIM card. My phone was factory simfree,so no problems there. I tried flashing all kind of roms(aosp,aokp,cm,tw 4.1.2;4.3;4.2.2), My IMEI and SN are there,and are valid/same as on the box of phone,so I didn't lost my imei/sn. Thanks for your help.

Try your sim in another phone, try another sim in your phone. If your phone won't read the other sim then your card reader is broken.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpookyAndroid:
Hey guys. This is my first post here and I'm new to android (came from iOS). I recently purchased a Nexus 5 and tinkered with it a bit on 4.4 (rooted, stock).

I didn't enjoy the camera quality so I installed CameraMod V1.3. Everything was fine until I installed 4.4.2 on my phone. I noticed that the camera quality become worse and the phone refused to record video. I made the stupid mistake of reflashing (I think that's the right term?) the phone with the stock Camera that I downloaded a while back that ended up being for 4.4.

Opening the camera app would just leave a black screen. It obviously wasn't working so I decided to try to fix things on my own and literally install the 4.4.2 Google Camera APK onto my phone. Now, my phone is telling me it can't connect to my camera..

So.. any help here?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Not sure what you all did, so I'd flash the system.img with fastboot from the 4.4.2 factory image.

I have a Droid Razr Maxx currently running Slim Bean 4.3 Beta 4. It has safe strap. I've been trying to find a way to flash the stock rooted rom from safe strap. All of my other phones I've had were easy to fine a flashable zip but i can't find one for this phone. I just want it back to stock rooted state but still with boot strap.

Somehow when I was messing with the phone in the past I must have overwrote the stock rom slot :( So I can't pull it from there.

My SPH-L710 has a broken Up Volume button and after flashing to stock, I can't get to recovery to wipe cache and stuff. I was using a custom rom to get to the download and recovery mode before, but now all I get is bootloop.

Can't get to download mode either. Will purchase USB Jig if necessary

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
If your new, ODIN is probably not for you, you can severly mess your phone up. If you cant get to download mode even after a battery pull, then it sounds bricked. USB jig may or may not work. All that left is JTAG service.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xXTheLawXx:
I can get to the warning screen, but I can't click up to get it to the actual mode (for obvious reasons). I just stuck my jig in it and its in download. Do I need to flash a stock rom and then could I use CF Auto Root as it wipes the cache at the end?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
Ok, if you plug it to your computer and it recognizes it, then i suggest MSkips Toolbox. It automates the whole process for you, but you must read it very carefully.

EDIT: If you were on stock 4.3 with KNOX bootloader, then toolkit won't work without adding proper 4.3 TAR file(not sure if there is one yet), because if you downgrade bootloader to 4.2 or less, your phone will brick.

Omni is up to 4.4.2 correct? I'm in the process of building, at this moment, for d2att/tmo. Is multi window in the official build or does it still need to be pulled from the gerrit?

Does anyone know what happened with stock browser? It does not have incognito mode any more and bookmarks doesn't sync. Both are working on my phone with CM11.

External SD in NTFS is not recognized, but it can be mounted with Paragon in read mode for now.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] scanno:
NTFS is not included in OmniROM as far as I know. In 4.3 I ported it from CM10.2 but got lost when gerrit crashed.

On the gapps download page there is a zip that enables bookmark sync (I think).
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] stenc55:
I'm convinced that you will do it again over time. I'm surprised how much of Omni stuf is working at this moment. But you know there will be whining "I can't access my external sd od USB" so there I posted temp solution.

I'm using stripped gapps from CM11 thread so I guess that's why I didn't have bookmarks Sync. I didn't know it's in gapps, I have always thought it's in system.

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] wa0qbu:
12-14 Gapps standard 4.4.2
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] scanno:
I have the camera and it is working.

My suggestion would be to reinstall but before you run the zip, wipe the system partition first. This will prevent any scripts from running and backing up gapps that should not be backed up.

You can format the system partition by selecting advanced wipe and select the system partition.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] wa0qbu:
Thank you will do this when I get home Great work thanks for all your efforts.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virgil13:
Hi there!

First, i want to say hello to everyone, because i've just registered to the site.

Second, i want to discuss a problem here, or rather ask for help about it.

So, i have my GT-I9070 for more than a year now, i've buyed it when it was released in our country, Hungary.

I've updated my OS yesterday, from 2.3.6 Gingerbread to 4.2.1 Jellybean.

I did the update because my GB was very slow, laggy, and buggy. (It was stock ROM, stock kernel, and all the things reversed back to the stock(although, i made some modding and OS switching, but i've repaired them all.))

The update to 4.2.1 did not solve the problem, so i've decided to search for more answers. I've found out from other sites, that many people have/had this issue, and that almost everyone solved it with a Custom Kernel. So after rooting, installing CWM, i've installed CoCore Kernel 5.6, then 6.2, then 8.2.

None of them helped. It's still the same useless, laggy, and slow ****. I can't even write on it, just roughly, because it's so slow now.

So, I would like to know your opinion of solving this problem of mine, because I can't find any more answers.

Thank you all, for listening and sharing.

Sincerely yours,

Vugil.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virgil13:
How?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ichigo_tai_Zangetsu:
Well, the Kernel isn't the ROM!

You really have to flash a custom ROM, to get a smooth usage.

BUT, Custom ROMs tend to suck your battery dry, faster than stock roms!

so unless someone whispered you the perfect settings for minimal higher battery usage, you shouldn't try any custom rom, except when you want to try it out so badly and you know what you are doing.

Hi,

I am just wondering if someone can explain how the localization of the units is working?

I am using a qtek 9100 with swedish wm5. Is the "swedish" files in ext rom or in rom. If they are in ext rom will it be possible to upgrade the rom to a newer version and afterwards install the localized ext rom to get for example swedish language???
[Google Chromecast] primetime34:
Well, will this work? I can get prime videos to play through mobile firefox, but that is as far as I've gotten. I've tried but I don't know that I am using it right. Is there some way, with the new apps, to get Amazon Prime video streaming from my phone/tablet to my chromecast?
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
I'm betting for now that the answer is NO...But there may be ways with a Hacked Rooted CCast.

I would be guessing but I expect there to be DRM in those that requires a player that can decode the DRM stream.

Netflix has one for the CCast and until Amazon supports CCast natively I wouldn't expect it to work without direct streaming whatever is on the Tablet screen directly to the CCast via Allcast or some other app that requires a Rooted CCast..
[Google Chromecast] drivenby:
You can use vget with the full version of Avia
[Google Chromecast] primetime34:
I have the full version of Avia. How can I use it with Amazon prime videos?
[Google Chromecast] drivenby:
You probably can't, I'm guessing it has some kind of drm.

I meant using vget for sites like putlocker or other storage sites.

What I do is use vget as a dlna server and read it through avia.

Works as a charm MOST times.

For some reason some files won't play through dlna or streaming, and I have to download them with vget
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
As far as I know...Anything that can only be played through a proprietary portal and their proprietary software (This includes NetFlix, GPlay, and Amazon) are most likely protected with DRM so that they can only be played on their proprietary player.

Which means it is pretty much up to them to incorporate Casting to CCast before you can cast those content items.

No way around it that I can think of.

Netflix activates an app on the CCast that knows how to decode their DRM encryption to play.it's streams.

It's a safe bet GPlay does this too and Amazon will need to create the same system they use.

While we all want Screen Mirroring and Local casting...The truth is the DIAL technology was always meant to be used in the way NetFlix uses it.

Thankfully it is flexible enough that we can get those other things as well.
[Google Chromecast] primetime34:
That makes sense. I just hope that sooner, rather than later, Amazon decides to open up their videos to all the android users...I mean for crying out loud, there is an app for the Wii and nothing for Android yet. Ridiculous.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Yeah, I'm waiting for Amazon too... can already do it on my TV, but my TV's interface is klunky.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
I think they will get there but it's a huge company whose software divisions are pretty much focused on their Kindle and Internal stuff.

Unfortunately I don't see them listed under the Dial Registry Database at all right now...

http://www.dial-multiscreen.org/dial-registry/namespace-database

Now that posting could be out of date and it may not mean they aren't working on it just that they haven't registered their Name yet.

They may be waiting for the public release of the SDK. Not sure how close they are with Google as far as development goes to be right on top of it.

I tend to avoid buying any music or content with DRM. I would rather buy the disc and rip it into a DRM free format so I can keep it on the Media Server or NAS.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Totally my attitude as well though recent life changes have pushed me to more of a "wherever, however" methodology, heh. Still won't pay for DRMed stuff as I've been burned too many times in the past, but I'll rent/subscribe for streaming now. Scary. I finally subscribed to Netflix... but mainly because I had the code from Chromecast. Nice bonus, the $8.99 1-month DVD+streaming gift card I bought years ago redeemed for two months of streaming service ($15.98 value). :victory:
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Netflix is a pretty good value when you get right down to it. I just signed up for the first time last month as well. Not sure I'll keep it but at the time Plex didn't support CCast! LOL

Truth is I got it as much for my Mother to use the account as for me! I may only keep as long as the MidSeason Break is on because there is nothing but crap on until January! LOL
[Google Chromecast] drivenby:
Netflix is worth every penny imho.

Well, American Netflix. The other ones ain't so hot but if you have an open mind, there's plenty to watch.

If you are more of a 'up to date' guy, then Hulu might be the better alternative.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Extreme112:
I strongly suggest that next time, just buy it off the carrier or an official store like BestBuy. You may not be scammed now but you never know what will happen the next time.

Also Nexus 5 is already unlocked...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raistlin1:
I bought my N5 off someone from Craigslist without any issues, I have also bought many phones off Craigslist. Just meet at a cell store of your choice and before you purchase make sure it can be activated on your account.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanyewest:
I believe even if u meet at a store to check if it can be activate it without any issues, they can report it lost at a later time and get it blacklisted anyways.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
What you can do with it is file a claim for fraud with local authorities. With email traffic, and a picture of the person's government issued identification, it is a cut and dry case. Just the fear of a case will keep most people honest to their deal.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raistlin1:
If you immediately activate that phone on your account then that phone is now yours (pretty sure that is the case), I do not think anything after that point can affect your phone. This has been my experience on Sprint, I am not sure on other carriers.
