[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jasondhsd:
Hi I'm still on touchwiz 4.1.2 rooted with the boot loader being relocked I don't want to update so I figured I'd give CM a whir. The one feature I like to use is sending video or photos from my phone to my smart TV that's on the same WiFi network. Does CM have this capability or is there an app that will do you this although I like how I can just be using the default Samsung gallery or movie player and just tap a button and have it go right to my TV. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bdr9:
Have you tried using the app AllCast? It was designed for this purpose, and it doesn't even require you to be using CyanogenMod. In the description it says it supports Samsung Smart TVs.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HMZX:
Hi guys, I got the nexus 5 a while back and I have successfully rooted and flashed Cataclysm ROM with the Elemental Kernel.

I have a really strange problem where the WiFi does not work at all. I turn the WiFi on, but it does not scan and find any networks, so I cannot see any WiFi networks in the area. I reflashed the ROM cleanly and the problem went away for a while, but it is now back and I cannot find and networks around me.

The only network it picks up is my home network that I set the phone up with when it was working, but now I have to enter even that manually.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistahseller:
Does the wifi work when you do not use the Cataclysm ROM and it was completely stock? Or before you even started did you just root it and load a ROM? :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HMZX:
hehe yeah, i had stock for about 2 days but then cataclysm persuaded me!

That is strange because I am running it along with Franco Kernel and I am doing fine..... Are you doing anything else?
[General Accessories] NCC-1701:
Ok so this is my first post here, so if I drop a clanger, please bear with me.

I've got an HTC Wizard (T Mobile Vario etc) but there is something I'm really missing. :(

Does anyone know of anybody that makes & sells a wired hands free kit with a built in FM Tuner? I would have preferred a built in FM radio in the phone (yes I know, I should have got an Atom), but I didnt & now I have to live with it.

I know Nokia & Sony Ericsson do external tuners for their phones. It should be easy with an Wizard because the only connections are via jack sockets.

I have turned EBay upside down looking for this type of thing, but all I can find are cheap looking plasticy things from China that run on watch batteries! I was looking for something a bit more up market.

I'm sure I can't be the only person in the world that

wants an FM radio bolt on for their Wizard!?

Or am I???????????????????????????????????????
[General Accessories] Rudegar:
you can get a fm radio sdio card which would add fm radio to all pda's with a sdio slot
[General Accessories] ZeBoxx:
the Wizard uses MiniSD, and as such won't work with any SD I/O cards. Afaik, you can't get an SD I/O > MiniSD converter either?
[General Accessories] NCC-1701:
This is not good news. I too have seen the SDIO cards. I think all they do is bleed power from the device, rateher than being truely integrated. But never seen a mini SD devive :cry:

Anyone seen anything combined into a headset?????
[General Accessories] ZeBoxx:
Plenty of radios that are basically stuck on a plug and two earbuds;

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0002EQXFK.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

But I don't know if they work together with the Wizard for e.g. voice commands (which I personally don't use, so doesn't matter to me)
[General Accessories] NCC-1701:
Yes I am aware of the type of radio that you mention. As I said in my original post "I know Nokia & Sony Ericsson do external tuners for their phones". Problem is they dont have the correct plug to use with a wizard (ie 4 conector, 2.5mm jack plug) which is what you need to listen to MP3 music (for example) then maybe switch to a phone call & then listen to the radio all using the same headset. The Motorola one is close, but the pins on the jack plug are not correct :cry: Something like this would be great, ie a headset (with microphone) + a radio. Am I asking for too much?????

[General Accessories] NCC-1701:
N I C E ! :D

It almost fits the bill. If only it could use the bluetooth connection to use the MP3 player on your phone (in stereo of course). I think I need one of these N*k*a (sorry I nearly swore) & A2DP. Assuming the T Mobile ROM ever turns up will A2DP work on a wizard?

Why is it that the BIG 3 phone companies look after their phones with good accessories? Come on HTC, your phones are great, but they need to branch out & support the phone range with some add on goodies.

You're right about that. I had an SDIO WiFi card for my magician. Whereas the battery would normally last a few days, it would be dead within an hour with the WiFi card in.

[General Accessories] NCC-1701:
Sadly not. I too am still searching the internet for something, but so far nothing that matches the criteria has popped up. Its becoming more & more annoying :x Every time I see something its a specific product for one of the big phone manufacturers. Clearly they put a value on selling accessories (presumably for a good profit) to enhance their phones, whereas most Windows powered phone owners are left to fend for themselves with stuff off fleabay.

Makes me wonder if its worth going down this route again :( So far I have had an original SPV, E200, C500, C550 & now a Vario (Wizard). Next time around I might go back to the big "N" & enjoy the benefits of buying something from a fully supported product range.
[Windows RT General] menk1313:
Ok so I am a little confused on this can someone please explain to me if I can run any other apps or software on my Lumina 2520 Tablet 8.1 besides Windows RT ? A was almost positive I could but now I see that I may of been misunderstanding.
[Windows RT General] GoodDayToDie:
Windows RT is an operating system. The version that comes on the Lumia 2520 is Windows RT 8.1. You cannot run any other OS on the Lumia 2520 at this time.

WinRT is an API used to create apps that run on Windows 8, Windows RT, and Windows Phone 8. These apps are commonly called "Metro" or "Modern" apps.

*At this time* there is no published way to run non-Modern software on RT 8.1, which means no way to do so on a Lumia 2520. Windows RT 8.0 has a working "jailbreak: hack that removes the restriction against third-party "desktop" software, although programs still need to be able to run on ARM processors (which usually requires rebuilding them from source code). There is a jailbreak for RT 8.1 coming, but I cannot offer any information on when it will be available. Even when it is, you will still only be able to use a small subset of the software available for x86 Windows.
[Windows RT General] menk1313:
Thank you for your detailed explanation. It cleared everything up for me.

I'm one of those XDA lurkers who, until now, have thankfully never had a problem that I couldn't solve by reading.

but here I am today, I have an HTC One Max Verizon variant, and due to a hardware defect (the plastic banding around the phone has come loose, rendering my power key and volume rocker woefully unreliable.) have had to submit for a warranty replacement.

I have used rumrunner to get S-off, I've unlocked the bootloader, and achieved root, and therein the problem lies.

Through an oversight, I do not have a backup of my recovery, nor do I really know how I am going to manage to get my device back to an out-of-the-box state.

LOL, you should have direct linked that post. You might have confused the OP too.

Anyway resolved now.
[HTC One Max] dsb9938:
A real RUU is a zip inside an executable file. Unfortunately HTC encrypts them these days and we have decrypt and extract them to get to the files.

I didn't say anything about Odin, no reason a person with an HTC phone would ever use Odin. Those files can easily be flashed in fastboot.

Don't f'n tell me what I do and don't understand. Just because you can put together a couple lines of code to flash things that plenty of people can do on their own doesn't mean you can start putting people down. I had been working with my Samsung devices but knew what I meant

[General Questions and Answers] Cameron1983:
Hi there,

New poster here. I'm hoping someone can help with a question:

My brother and I both have Samsung Galaxy Note 2s. Mine is UK registered, and his German. I have linked my Samsung Account to both devices, as I have quite a lot of movies, but he can't access any of them. I have tried downloading movies to both micro sd cards whilst in my phone, but they still won't register in Video Hub when in his phone. I presume it's due to his phone registered as European/German when it was first activated? (His sim card is German). He is back in the UK for Christmas.

Is there any way for him to access my purchased Samsung Hub content? Maybe by resetting the country registration so the phone thinks it's a UK phone?

Any ideas? Thanks a lot!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galannyc:
My bootloader is unlocked already so I know I can flash rooms. I would like to flash the latest stock OS if I could. How can I load a zip to the nexus 10 since there is no SDcard. I saw an option to sideload but can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks and happy holidays.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
There is /sdcard
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi,

To use sideload is simple, just copy the .zip file to your adb folder, then in recovery select flash using sideload (never tried with stock, but I'm sure with TWRP it works) and then open a cmd there and type:

adb sideload *zipfilehere*

And there's always /sdcard like the other guy said.

Hope this helps,

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] taurui:
Hi everyone,

2 weeks ago I retired my Galaxy S1 and upgraded to a P6. I love a lot about it, and now with the european P125 upgrade, the wifi connectivity issues seem to be resolved as well.

But one issue still seems to come up:

When I have headphones without a mic connected (in my case, Sennheiser HD-25-1), the call quality as perceived by the recipient is horrible when there is ambient noise present (for example in a bus).

So, whenever I listen to music and I receive a call - when I don't disconnect my headphones and use my P6 like usual, I hear the other person just fine, but he hears the ambient noise much much louder than usual.

When I disconnect the headphones, everything is back to normal.

This wasn't the case with my old SGS...

So I did a few experiments:

- Without ambient noise, the recipient doesn't notice much of a difference whether I use headphones or not

- With ambient noise (simulated by loud radio), when I don't use headphones, the other person hears me fine, much louder than the ambient.

- With ambient noise and connected headphones, my voice is as loud as the ambient noise, so the other person has big troubles understanding me

- Now, when I talk to the *top* of the P6 (right next to the USB port) into the mic that is used to filter out ambient noise during calling, my voice is *louder* than before - so at least that is a small workaround to that

So it seems to me, that when I connect headphones, the upper mic is used only, while without connected headphones, the lower mic is used as primary mic and the upper one is used just for filtering out ambient.

Anyway, it's doing something that I don't want it to do and now I wonder if I can change it :)

(By the way, I tried with 3 different headphones, doesn't make a difference).

I have a P6 that used to have B606 and now has B125 and it behaved the same for both software versions.

Soooo.. any clues? :)

regards,

-taurui

Google instant mix is nothing new to the world of music players in general, but the main inconvenience is that the generated mix are made with ALL the library (online\local stored tracks). Can't burn all the internet traffic of my mobile provider (2GB/month) for just 60 mins of listening in high quality.

Is there a way to "hack" it to generate the playlist only with the tracks stored on our phone storage? If not I sincerly cannot find an app to generate a playlist and then import it to Play Music.. The Gracenote database and the MusicDNS are fully capable of doing such job but looks like nobody on the app store ever heard of them xD

[Google Chromecast] quickstang:
So I don't know if anyone can point me in the right direction, but I just installed the Chromecast for my parents, have it working on my tablet, phone, brothers MAC with 0 issues, but when I try to cast a tab, the TV screen goes black, for a few seconds, then the Google Cast extension goes red with the x telling my to try to cast again or check network settings.

I'm using a Win 7 OS, latest Chrome, turned the firewall off to test, Anti-Virus, reinstalled the extension, the browser, ran as admin, changed compatibility mode in Chrome properties & still absolutely NOTHING.

My brother added the extension to the MAC, & everything mirrored right away from every tab he sent.

Is there something I need to be looking for as to why this isn't working? I've searched high & low for troubleshooting, but decided someone here may have experienced the same issue. The Chromecast is updated as well. This should have been a simple install the extension in Chrome & go, but is turning out to be a headache.

What are the specs of the Win 7 computer?

Also, enable the Cast Extension's option to automatically resize the browser tab - that'll reduce the CPU requirement, if it's a CPU speed issue.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
OK sorry I thought you were having that problem on all not just the PC....

You say you shut off the firewall but in most cases there are two in Windows...The one that comes with your AntiVirus/Security Suite and Windows Firewall.

If you got both of them off and still nothing....

How is the PC connecting to the router compared to the other devices?

Is the PC wired while the others are Wireless? (I know the Androids are Wireless)

If you have a router that has Guest Access and use that for your PC many ports will be blocked as well.

Also what file are you trying to cast? Can you cast that same file or Tab from the other devices successfully?

What is it your trying to cast and from where?

In the end your probably right it is isolated at the PC side but that also makes it much harder to troubleshoot since we don't know what is running on your PC that could interfere.
[Google Chromecast] quickstang:
So a little more information...

1. I'm just trying to cast a tab in general. Nothing fancy. For instance a site with a recipe. Did the auto resize thing & nothing. The laptop is old, but not old enough to not handle the tab. It also has 8 of RAM.

2. The laptop is connected to wifi. 2.4 GHz.

3. The firewall on Win 7 was off, & nothing is running firewall wise with the anti-virus program.

4. Guest access isn't on.

5. My brothers Mac Book is connected identically to the network as is the Win 7 laptop. Both wirelessly. All he did was launch Chrome, install the extension & off he went. Had facebook up, YouTube, pictures, etc.

6. Tested an iPhone, as well as my Nexus 7 & had no issues getting Pandora to work, YouTube, etc.

I haven't had time to try all of the networking stuff mentioned as I am not over there, but seeing how every other wireless device is working, I don't see it being anything network related aside from a setting on the laptop that is related to Windows somehow. It shouldn't be that complicated.

I hate to return the Chromecast, but I bought it for my parents to use with the laptop. If that can't work, it's pretty much useless.

I will try my laptop which is running Win 7 when I go over there on Saturday, but if that works, the only thing would be a setting. Even if CPU was an issue, which it isn't, I can't see it not mirroring a simple site with text & pictures. Heck, even the Google start page with the word Google.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
First thing to check is what setting the network its set to (Unknown, Public, Home, Work) - only the latter two will work as the former two block lots of ports.

After that, try Resetting the Windows Firewall config - I've seen cases where it can interfere with things even when turned off. (Insert WTF)

After that, check for any network filters, like those installed by some combo antivirus/firewall packages, and any VPN filters.

You could also try booting Windows in Safe Mode to see if that makes a difference.

Safe mode works, but that's it. Another laptop was tested running Windows 7 & no issues there. It's also less powerful & older than the one that doesn't work.

It appears to be just the one laptop. I also updated all wireless drivers & that didn't help. The sad thing is, is that the laptop trying to be used was wiped & set up from scratch. So there really isn't a lot of garbage on it. Windows, your general programs & updates & that's it.
