Thanks for the reply. Do you have any experience with Miracast? I bought an adapter for my TV. I'm going to try that to see how it works.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Invisible J:
For what it's worth, I bought the Cable Matters slim port adapter I had seen recommended here - as far as I can tell, it's DOA.

I went back and read the reviews on Amazon; it appears that this has become an increasingly common issue with this particular adapter.

I'm still on the stock ROM.

I take it MHL adapters don't work on this?

What about micro HDMI to VGA (which I use on my old playbook to show presentations on projector at work that does not have HDMI)
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CuraeL:
I've never outputted or inputted anything through hdmi or slimport myself, from a tablet that is. My advice would be to check out what the slimport connector supports.. A specsheet from somewhere. Surely it must be documented somewhere. Since the guy in the vid was able to output audio and video plus doing a usb read, I guess it can do a few things.

Sorry, I only know that the port supports video out.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucien2:
I'm not willing to switch to CM right now and re-install everything just to test it. I think I'll try some other mirroring technology like Miracast. :fingers-crossed:
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woody1:
I don't think that MHL adapters will work, because the G Pad hardware supports Slimport instead. Slimport adapters are available for either HDMI or VGA output. I don't know if anybody here has used a Slimport-VGA adapter, but I assume that it will work.

You can find them on Amazon.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarf Face:
I can confirm that MHL adapter - microUSB to HDMI - does not work.

[General Questions and Answers] RamRaja:
Nice question

Ha! This one is a good one and not a lot of people realize it since they are not as perceptive as you. :D ... I think this may never have been asked on here!

Most phones (Newer phones and ALL smart phones) battery loggers are not immediately in sync with actual battery levels when on charge; and once it reaches 100%, will stop charging until it drops (Your case 93%) in an effort to maximise the life of your battery so when you disconnect it, the battery logger is simply catching up to reality which is why you lose 7%.

If you want to get the most out of your battery, use a technique called BUMP charging:

Turn off your phone and charge it to the max reported in the screen/ notification light, then disconnect it and immediately reconnect it (dont turn on) causing a refresh of your battery logging and allowing more charging. You can cycle as many times as you want, and dont worry about the battery logger saying its full, because as explained, its not immediately in sync.

Check this article I found a looong time ago for graphs of how it works and deeper explanations:

Good luck

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] MoNsTeRmUk:
wow!!

it's really hard to be done xD

i thought it will be as easy as it was on my old Galaxy S2

all what i needed to do is to restart the phone and press home to boot to second Rom

i hope it's going to be easier soon

and thank you for you efforts toward our device Development
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] X-Stranger:
Well, it is not as hard as it probably seems :) Download 3 files and overwrite recovery partition.

Probably I need to compose something like zip file for CWM or TWRP when I have free time... But if would be really nice if someone get it working too following current steps
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] MoNsTeRmUk:
I really Appreciate your work here brother And as it seems our device is not getting much of the attention unlike other devices

And what i meant by hard is it's possible to be done without any mistakes , but i take sometime to do so and you need a computer every time you want to change the Rom so it's not a solution for every time use .

I wish you good luck and Thank you for your support :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] X-Stranger:
Thanks for kind words :) Actually you don't need to have the computer to change ROM, you can type commands from terminal emulator directly from Android. I'm also thinking about creating small Android app which can be installed to each ROM and will be able to switch boot partition within one click.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] maro_X:
other roms

Can I do this this with another rom
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] X-Stranger:
It is possible, but your another rom must be specially modified for this.

What rom are you talking about exactly?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] X-Stranger:
Multi-boot solution

I've tired of writing images to boot partition every time I want to switch between native firmware and Cyanogen, so decided to compose a little program that I was talking before. So let me introduce you N8xx Boot Manager!

View attachment 2505082 View attachment 2505083 View attachment 2505084 View attachment 2505085View attachment 2505086

The idea:

You put your boot images files to some folder on your sdcard, lets say to /mnt/extSdCard/images/boot

And recovery boot images to /mnt/extSdCard/images/recovery

Now you run Boot Manager and select what you want to boot as normal boot or as recovery

As soon as you selected it, the application asks you if you would like to write this image to the appropriate partition (boot or recovery)

After successful writing it will ask you for booting from that partition, e.g. propose to reboot into your another rom or recovery

For sure all the settings like path where to keep images and boot/recovery partition names can be fixed appropriately to your device at the Settings tab

For sure the application requires root permissions, e.g. your device must be rooted. You can also check this from Settings tab

The application file: View attachment 2505081 - feel free to install it to your device and use posting me bug reports :)

P.S. The only thing I've forgotten - the button to create native boot image file backup :D You still need to do it manually, sorry :o Hopefully in next release, if there be people interested in N8xx Boot Manager ;)

P.P.S. Generally this program can be used for any device - just put correct images and correct boot partition names

P.P.P.S. Why N8xx and not N8xxx or N80xx? Because I've missed one symbol when typed application name in Android Studio and was too lazy to change that later :laugh:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] X-Stranger:
N80xx Boot Manager

Updated version of N80xx Boot Manager: View attachment 2506539

View attachment 2506556

Changelog:

Fixed application name :)

Fixed images path detection when no settings were changes

Added "Backup boot partiton" and "Backup recovery partition" buttons

Thus, now to install CM 10.2 as dual boot you don't need to go to ADB or terminal - just upload 3 img files to your device proper locations, installl boot manager apk, create stock boot/recovery partitions backup, then select what you want to boot and boot to that rom!

P.S. Going to update first post of this thread with steps based on Boot Manager, just would be nice if someone confirm that it works.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] X-Stranger:
I'm using the same Revolution HD 9.0 by mike1986 and it works for me. The backup might fail if backup folder is not available. By default it is trying to use external sdcard for backups, it is looking for /mnt/extSdCard/images/boot and /mnt/extSdCard/images/recovery paths for the purpose. Please create those folders if you don't have it, or change boot manager settings according to your thought where the backups should be. The boot and recovery folders should exist anyway, e.g. it is up to you to create them.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] muop_92:
Where is /mnt ? I saw in my device only /storage/extSdCard
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] X-Stranger:
It's the same. External sdcard is available on both these paths as far as I know. You can change it otherwise in application settings tab.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] netj:
Ok !

Hi,

It's Ok !

Thanks !

I have just modify the paths :

dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p6 of=./recovery.img --> dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 of=./recovery.img

dd if=./cyanogen.img of=/dev/mmcblk0p6 --> dd if=./cyanogen.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] KalleEatingBrain:
Hi,

I just stumbled upon the new project Siena, an app that allows you creating Windows 8.1 apps within Windows 8.1 without any programming needed. The cool thing is, that you can also use this app on Windows 8.1 RT.

Since the Project is open beta right now, there aren't many resources arroundand I'm still a little unclear about the abilitys of this.

My intention with this thread is to share what you discover, develop or what you have trouble with.

My first question is, what apps can you think about buissnes apps aside? Do you think, one could create a XDA-Forum app with this?

And how does the publishing work? Do you need a developers license to install your own applications? Can we simply share .appx -files, or do we need to use the store?

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] JazzyRO:
Hello,

I have Samsung Galaxy S 3 LTE (I9305) with Stock ROM 4.1.2 (I9305XXBME1) and since a couple of days ago, every time I update an existing app or install a new app trough Google Play or apk, the phone freezes right after the installaion is complete. It's strange that the arrows from the wifi icon are still blinking and the live wallpaper is moving, but it doesn't respond to any touches, and the only solution is restarting the phone by long pressing the power buton. Also the app I successfully installed.

I've rooted my phone with Framaroot app, and installed Superuser and ClockModRecovery.

I also have Lookout and Folder Organizer, which scan and set the new app to a folder after each install. I've uninstalled them believing they are the cause of my problems, but no luck solving the issue. I also checked the free space and I have 1.2GB free. I cleared the cache in recovery too but it didn't helped.

Does anyone have any ideeas how fix this this issue, beside a hard reset?

It would be very much appreciated.

I've retraced my steps and it seems a couple of apps didn't installed correctly (1tap cache cleaner & my font), before I've had this problem. When I open them, the phone would freeze.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jank4AU:
Google ADB and how to push things to your phone. It is really quite simple and I'm sure there are numerous guides here on XDA. Basically it will allow you to connect your phone to a computer via usb and using android debug (adb) you can push a new ROM to your sdcard and then flash in recovery.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NVHeartgrenade:
Great ! I can connect it to my PC but I don't know how to get into adb mode. Is it the same as Download mode? (using volume up and pluging usb cable)?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jank4AU:
You won't notice anything on your phone until you issue a command from ADB. You need to download a small adb file and execute it on your computer. Again, there are full guides that should also probably include a link to the download.
