Tried that and, yet again, no luck. I honestly can't think of a single reason why my WiFi shouldn't be starting up like normal, especially since it was working normally before that reboot. Any other Slimbean users out there have/had any similar problems with their WiFi not starting?

Well, I just did a clean sweep of my phone (wiped system, data, as well as cache and dalvik) and re-flashed the Slimbean rom and the WiFi is working again!:D Although, I'm worried this incident might come up again. I'll be sure to update this post if anything occurs. Thanks everyone.

Hey,

Guys can i cast my mobile chrome on my android phone to chromecast to surf websites through my phone?

I know its possible on chrome pc but is it possible on mobile... it seems stupid if it doesn't since i have a desktop pc which is far from my T.V i would like to check websites and stuff through my phone viewed from my T.V.

PS, Just to make you laugh i got my chromecast today I live in U.A.E the reason i bought it was TO ROOT it and i think i got the old model so i was so eager to show it to my family so out of my stupidity and idiotity if thats even a word i connected it to the internet and boom i updated it then i went to check how to root it well :eek: .... you know the rest now am on build 14975 well no luck for me then until someone comes out with a solution.
[General Questions and Answers] Dio_:
It doesn't work with the mobile browser.

But you could cast the desktop tab and then control the PC with a remote app or something like that.

[How-to get partial flip-cover function on AOSP] This is no longer needed. :)

- Remember that this will require a magnet inside the case's lid.​

Hey guys!

I was fiddling around with our sensors tonight and I figured out the magnetometer is working in our device.

So I researched the Market and found an exciting application called Magnet Unlocker.

This application supports a lot of different ways to lock/unlock a device. Including with the use of a magnetic field.

Anyways, I did a lot of settings options and I cannot for the life of me get the application to both use Lock and Unlock, the unlock/lock processes get's jammed up in each other and starts to lock/unlock within seconds of eachother, so I basically use only unlock, since that's the most handy when I look at it. The device can still turn off by itself after a set time due to lacking user interaction.

With the settings I give you here, I have at least made the tablet turn on when the lid is flipped off the screen. The built-in dispay off setting is taking care of turning off the screen(in my case 1 minute after I close the lid)

So I present to you a small image guide on how to reach optimal settings.

I hope this is useful to you. :)
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] ViperPyro:
Nice find!

For those willing to spend a few minutes, I was able to get both cover Lock and Unlock working quite easily with Tasker and Secure Settings (Paid + Free). Secure Settings is needed since Tasker cannot turn on the screen in Android 2.3+.

To Lock:

Create a new Profile, State, Sensor, Magnetic Field. Press Scan and have a look at the value when the cover is nearly closed (you can peek under the cover). A value of 285+ works fine for me so far. So set From '285' and To 'Any'.

For the Exit Task, Display, System Lock.

To Unlock:

Same as before, just use the lower range: From '0' To '284' for me. (or you can use Invert)

For the Exit Task, Plugin, Secure Settings. Hit the pencil for Configuration and choose Wake Device. I then used Screen Dim and 5 seconds, but these are up to you. Press Save and you are done!

EDIT: I added a variable check to keep it from running constantly. I think it still needs a little work, things are a bit wonky, but get you get the idea. When it locks, set %CASE to CLOSED. In order to unlock, it must then read %CASE as CLOSED, before setting it to OPEN.

You also might want to disable Run In Foreground from Settings - Monitor - General if you don't want to see a notification all the time.

Happy Smart Covering! :highfive:
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] colwellkr:
Very cool find, one issue I am having though (I have the IVSO case) is that I have a stronger magnet field when the case is open (and the cover is flipped all the way around to the backside of the device) than when the case is closed lol. This is annoying because I would rather it to lock the screen and then use light or knock knock to turn the screen back on lol. If you have any ideas please share!

Edit: Didn't see the post about tasker. I'm going to try that now since I already use tasker for a lot of things!
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] ViperPyro:
Really?? I have the IVSO case as well, and mine is much lower flipped around (~160 vs 330). That's weird. Does the smart cover work on stock?

You could try the method I describe with Tasker (no need for Secure Settings if not turning screen on) and set a small To and From window that just corresponds to your lid being shut. Maybe you need a delay to check twice to ensure it isn't accidentally triggered by the cover flapping while open.
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] mzfckr993:
To what degree do these fixes affect battery life?
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] ViperPyro:
While I have no idea (just made the script), I would hope not any more than other implementations like the stock LG method? :fingers-crossed:
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] colwellkr:
Yeah it was weird in magnet unlocker I had higher values for open than closed. But I got it working perfectly in tasker, so thank a million! And I have no idea if my cover works on stock because I bought the cover after I put cm11 on it.

These should not impact your battery life too much since the sensors are almost always on anyway as far as I can tell.
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] mzfckr993:
It seems that the values of the sensor vary greatly depending on the area; this means that in some places it works perfectly, but in others it won't respond at all. Could there be any way to input relative values of the magnetic sensor in Tasker as opposed to absolute values or some other way to mend this?
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] CuraeL:
This was exactly why I only used one of the settings. The sensor is highly unstable and in certain occasions it decides to "double" the magnetic field. Sometimes I'm at like 400 when the lid is open and 800 when closed, should be only 4-500 when closed. It is based highly on situation. I'm sticking with the screen on function only. But thanks for the Tasker config as well. At least there's something now.
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] ViperPyro:
Yeah I see what you mean. That is happening to me now. Case will be wide open but it will trigger the screen off function. Back to just one function indeed...
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] colwellkr:
Do you leave the cover open just hanging off the side or do you flip it all the way around behind? Since the magnet and sensor are on the side where the fold is I have found I have to flip it all the way around behind the tablet to keep the screen off from being triggered. But this is how I like holding the tablet anyway.
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] Linus_BE:
Magnet Unlocker and Tasker don't work for me. Magnet unlocker reads my magnetic field as 900 with the cover open and 18 when closed, so when I close the cover the device unlocks. Tasker works sometimes, but after some time the magnetic field goes above 1000 so tasker is useless.
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] cnims:
I tried this on Madhi-Rom and it didn't work for me either. The magnetic sensor isn't working correctly and didn't give values that made any sense. I went back to stock and checked with the app and the sensor reports correctly.
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] Linus_BE:
It works for me when I calibrate the magnetometer :) Sometimes the magnetometer does not work properly but after this method it works again. I can now lock and unlock the screen with my smart cover using tasker.

[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] dsmitty166:
Can you link me to this evidence please
[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] sleekmason:
maybe I am not aware of what you are really talking about. Are you talking about using a cover with a magnet to turn on and off your tablet? When you lift the lid it comes on when you shut the lid it goes into standby mode? Maybe I misunderstood what really taking place here. But if that is the case then yes I am using a ivso cover that hibernate my tablet just fine.

[G Pad 8.3 Themes and Apps] Linus_BE:
Sure here you go: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qyta934c3nfdhjc/CCkRVs0RRY

You may have to adjust the values for when to lock/unlock the device and you need secure settings plugin.

You can check your magnetic field values by going to state -> sensor -> magnetic field -> scan and then close your cover while looking at the value when it's nearly closed.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t3project:
So, does Slacker work properly for anyone on CM11 or any AOSP rom?

Every CM or AOSP rom I've tried to use Slacker on it does not with properly. It will load and start to play and then it will pause at exactly 7 seconds. You then have to press play again to continue the song. Also, after it starts playing it will skip around the song. Once it gets to the end of the song it will rewind about a minute or so and then will play to the end again then it will start the next song and then pause at 7 second again starting the process over again.

It works fine on any stock based ROM. But it does not work on any AOSP based rom and I've tried them all.

Background

1) got this kindle fire for my mom a month or two after it first released, the dev scene was very new back then and I did a basic root so that I can sideload some stuff onto it to get around the amazon store

2) adb and fastboot should have been installed back then (i recall doing an adb push)

------

Problem

1) I needed to flash a new rom that'll properly support youtube for my mom. After some reading, it seemed like the first thing i need to do was install FFF and TWRP

2) I downloaded the KFU, hit install FFF and then it reboot to the orange kindle fire logo (not blue, not flickering or anything else)

3) from here, I can't really do anything. the KFU and unbrick utility both cannot detect it (error: device not found or "waiting for device")

4) I followed a thread and went into the .android folder to add the needed lines to a file, and then to the folder in programsx86 and added a few lines, this made it so when i plugged in the stuck logo my computer made a badoop sound (which it didn't before)

5) If i try typing fastboot or adb into my cmd prompt, it just says its not recognized as a command even though i'm sure it should be installed

At this point, from my understanding...

I need to get into fastboot somehow (i'm not sure if i need a factory cable to do this)

and then try to go from there?

I'm very unfamiliar with working with fastboot and adb, i only have previous experience with my galaxy phones which never used any of these, so clear instructions are greatly appreciated.

Sorry for the long post,

Thank you for any help

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jma9454:
To use adb or fastboot you need to cd ("change directory") in command prompt.

Ex. cd: C:\Users\Admin\Program Files.... etc, ad nauseum to wherever you installed KFU. You can also open up the folder where kfu is installed and drag adb.exe or fastboot.exe directly into command prompt.

Install FFF

And from there its just like normal where i reboot into recovery, wipe everything, flash the zip, and then off i go?

Hello all,

This is for all the parents out there.. Munchkin Monitor is a brand new baby monitor app that aims to help make it easier to look after of your baby.

It's the result of a lot of hard work, and I hope it will prove to be useful.

The app lets you pair 2 (or more) Android devices and use one as a "Baby Station" (or, "Munchkin" station ;)) and the other(s) as "Parent Station"(s).

Once paired and running, the Munchkin station will send real-time updates to all connected Parent stations about noise levels, and you'll be alerted if noise has been detected, if there are any timeouts, etc.

The app also supports picture transfer, live video if both devices are on the same network, and audio talk-back!

There is also a web based Parent Station, so you can monitor on your laptop/desktop or tablet (including iPads): http://ps.munchkinmonitor.com/

Everything works over Wifi/3G/LTE - anywhere you have internet access. You are not limited to the same Wifi network, and you dont have to mess with firewall settings or anything like that :good:
