[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sparker366:
Well not sure what steps to do as the phone is in download mode. I see the 4th post in that thread has boot modem and recovery and that seems to be what screwed up flashing twrp. I could try that set of steps and see or can I flash back to the previous firmware and be all good and hope the MK2 ota is pushed to me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sparker366:
Well I flashed the stock recovery and boot img and I got my phone back. Will wait to see if twrp gets supported before flashing a custom rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GuestX0019:
You can't get twrp to work unless someone counteracts sammy's bootloader lockdown--I don't see that happening anytime soon

You need to use SafeStrap as mentioned--read up a lot on it in the General and Q&A sections

You can still flash a fair number of quality roms, but you are limited

You must use SafeStrap's recovery, which if memory serves me, is loosely based on twrp
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] moealatt:
Okay so here's the story, I bought an at&t galaxy s4 that had a smashed screen bc apparently it feel off the roof or something. I replaced the screen and bought an unlock code from fastgsm.com. And everything was pretty and worked flawlessly. Then the phone started acting up, so i contacted Samsung and apparently the phone was still under warranty and i sent it in. The fix for them was replacing PBA, which i think is printed board assembly aka mother board. When i got it back it was locked again that's how i know that mother board was replaced. Well the phone still has the same imei, but every time i enter the unlock code provided to me id says "network unlock unsuccessful". I should probably mention i was on 4.2.2 when i unlocked it the first time, now its 4.3.

So then I contacted fastgsm to see if im missing a step or something and they sent me all these different tricks to try to get it activated. like *#0011#

which takes me to the service menu, then i hit back, and key input 1. but nothing happens it just stays there.

**I cannot get to this menu**

f. Please click [1] UMTS > [1] DEBUGGING SCREEN > [6] Phone Control > [6] Network LOCK

g. You will see 3 OPTIONS within Network LOCK

h. Please click on number [1] Perso Sha256 INFO, the screen will change slightly

i. Please hit the MENU button then when the menu pops up please carefully hit BACK to return to the previous screen

j. Next Please click on number [2] Perso Sha256 ON, the screen will change again to a one line message

*****************************

So then i tried another code

*7465625*638*# which also did nothing:confused:.

I'm wondering if anyone else has ran into a similar problem or if someone could shed some light on this.

Thanks in advance :cyclops:

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Accessories] Xyth:
I have an HDX 8.9 which replaced a 7" HD recently. The only thing I missed was the HDMI output on the HD, as I used it to connect to hotel room TV's when traveling. I also used it frequently to connect to my home TV to watch amazon prime movies etc. I needed a way to replace this function on the HDX.

I have a Chromecast which works well with my android phone, but has very limited utility on the HDX (it won't display mirror, nor can you cast amazon prime videos with it) The Netgear PTV-3000 was what I figured I would have to go with, but the price and the setup issues reported caused me to look around for alternatives. I am happy to report I found a great solution.

The Tronsmart T-1000 is about the same price (less actually) that the Chromecast device and 1/2 the price of the Netgear. The install is straight forward, very similar to the steps used to get a Chromecast up and running. The manual that comes with the device is a bit confusing, but there is a great walkthrough at http://blog.geekbuying.com/index.php/2014/01/04/how-to-connect-kindle-fire-hdx-to-tronsmart-t1000/#.UtlNwbQo5Ea that made the setup simple on the HDX.

On my home wireless network there was no noticeable lag on games, and no lip sync issues on prime video, including 720p and 1080p content. I was very surprised how fast the device processed HD video. The latest update included compression on the wifi stream so that is probably the reason for the speed. I didn't see any video artifacts introduced due to the compression. Updates are OTA for both the application and the device firmware. This is a one click update within the EZ-Cast app. The vendor seems to update the app and firmware regularly, so this looks like it will have great support going forward.

I was able to bring the HDX about 30 feet away from the Tronsmart dongle before I started to see the video skip and stutter. This was through an interior wall as well, so line of sight distance is probably better than that.

The reviews on Amazon are fairly good, most issues seem to be related to particular devices with older versions of Android, or older versions of the firmware. You can read them here: http://amazon.com/Tronsmart-T1000-Mirror2TV-Wireless-Compatible/dp/B00H2D3N0M

I highly recommend you check out this device if you have an HDX and want to enable the display mirroring feature.

Believe it or not everyone, MaclawStudio is back on development for the ArmV6 Galaxy Gio and Galaxy Ace. To Top it all off, He has a booting release of KitKat (as CM11) built for the Gio and Ace. The First Release was on 16 January 2014 causing a bit of a stir and excitement (including myself :D ) in the Gio/Ace Community.

The link to the original Thread on the MaclawStudio Site:

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] FlashTec80:
For those of you who have trouble installing this, this is how i did it (not saying it will work for you but it worked for me).

First of all i might say that i used CWM 5.0.2.6.

1) I booted in to CWM

2) Format system (option is found in mount and storage i believe)

3) Full wipe/factory reset

4) Clean cache and dalvik

5) Install the rom

6) Clean cache and dalvik

Reboot phone and wait for it to start, when i got my phone started a noticed a lack of Gapps so i once again rebooted

in to recaovery and installed this Gapps

Im not taking any responsibility for what happens to your phone if you follow these steps only i can say is that they worked for me :)

[Google Chromecast] Teitn:
I have an issue with Netflix playing 5.1 sound. It doesn't show me the option in the device when I want to cast, I tried my Galaxy SIII, my Acer A500 tablet and the chrome google cast extension.

Works everything but only show me the options English (Stereo) Spanish (Stereo) or Portugues (Stereo) in the audio icon :confused:

If I use the same account in a PS3 of a friend with the same shows, works fine, but in my devices not work. Any ideas?:rolleyes:
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
My Netflix has not given me anything beyond Stereo so far, but most of the content I've been casting probably doesn't have surround anyway.
[Google Chromecast] Teitn:
I tried content like Star Trek (The New Movie) or Dr. Who (New Seasons), everything new stuff with the 5.1 legend and tested in the PS3 with real 5.1 capabilities, so it's anoying.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Well we know surround is possible on the CCast so I would guess that the CCast Player App Netflix is using doesn't support surround yet.

Not sure if they have a support forum but complaining loudly there might get them off their butt on implementing it.
[Google Chromecast] GreenDroidX:
It is possible to do 5.1 but your device must let chromecast know that it could.

Examples my chromecast connect to Vizio TV then TV output to a Yamaha 4300 7.1 soundbar = stereo

But chromecast to the yamaha 4300 soundbar then soundbar using HDMI ARC to TV = glorious 5.1
[Google Chromecast] Teitn:
So, I have my Philips TV with the HDMI conected to the chromecast and TV connected by HDMI-ARC to my Philips BD HT 5.1... you say I have some issue thats not telling to the CC I can reproduce 5.1 by the ARC???
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Yes plug the CCast into the Philips unit not the TV.
[Google Chromecast] Teitn:
OK. I doomed, because my Phillips Blue Ray it's my 5.1 amp too, and doesn't have HDMI In, just HDMI-ARC or optical/coaxial in... If I try with an optical cable I have the same Issues?
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Not doomed yet...Just need to find a workaround....

Is the TV surround capable? (Maybe not but if it has HDMI-ARC I have to assume it is)

Check the audio settings on your TV. They maybe spread all over the place unfortunately.

There will be one MAIN audio section for general TV settings. But each Input on the TV may have it's own separate Audio settings and they will show up on the menu that controls inputs.

It is possible that it isn't the TV not communicating with the CCast but the fact the Input or TV is not set to use Surround and therefore is not passing it to your Amp.

If you can tell me what Brand and Model TV you have I might be able to help you more on where to look for the settings that are tripping you up.

If your TV supports ARC I can't imagine it would not support Surround so it must be a setting that is wrong that is causing this issue.
[Google Chromecast] dan1431:
I am having a similar issue, my LG connects to my Yamaha Receiver (which is older and does not have HDMI inputs.) via the optical input and passes through 5.1 from my Roku and even it's own Netflix app, but nada from my CC.

Dan
[Google Chromecast] generationgav:
The CC will only output DD+ 5.1 audio from Netflix and won't (possibly can't) downgrade this to DD 5.1 as other devices can. Not sure about the Roku but PS3 definitely can downgrade to DD5.1

If your audio receiving device doesn't support DD+ (only newer devices do) then you won't get 5.1 from Netflix CC.
[Google Chromecast] Teitn:
Yes. I have the cable receiver conected to the HDMI 1 of my Philips 32PFL4017G TV, the HDMI 2 to the CC and the HDMI 3 to my Philips HTS3541 Blu-ray via HDMI-ARC. If I use the cable tv receiver I have 5.1, the same if I broadcast some video via DLNA from my CPU, so something it's wrong but I don't know what.:confused:
[Google Chromecast] HbbS:
I also own a Phiilips TV and my Chromecast doesn't send 5.1 audio to my Logitech z-5550. Some may argue that my Z-5550, doesnt support, but HGO GO doesn't work either.

Just for information, I also do own a Roku 3 (which doesn't have a spdif output) and I have to rely on the spdif out of my Philips TV to send 5.1 to my Z-5550 and it works flawlessly, even using Netflix that supports only Dolby Digital Plus.

Apparently there is something odd going on with Chromecast and Philips TVs.

I am going to test this using the same setup and a Sony TV.
[Google Chromecast] dan1431:
Same situation in my bedroom except for my TV being an LG and my sound bar being a Yamaha.

Roku3 outputs 5.1 as does the native LG Netflix app.

Dan
[Google Chromecast] generationgav:
DD+ requires HDMI, it won't go over spdif (requires too much bandwidth) so either something is converting it to DD, or youre not getting true 5.1
[Google Chromecast] Sebz4n:
I too have a Samsung TV that I will be connecting my Chromecast to, and then SPDIF from the TV to my Logitech Z-5500 receiver.

Has anyone managed to pull such a setup off and get surround sound? I am debating wether or not to buy a chromecast when I go to the states in two weeks
[Google Chromecast] dudumaroja:
the main problem is, the HDMI arc (or optical) wont support DD+, only DD.. but Netflix (Chromecast) only supports DD+, so its a no go..

i use chromecast to most of my netflix use, but if i realy want to use 5.1 i use the netflix client on my bluray player ( as it is my receiver too )

the only way to get 5.1 sound from chromecast on netflix is to use a receiver with hdmi input!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tom_mai78101:
My brother has received a HTC Flyer with a customized ROM from his high school as a gift to advocate e-learning. As far as I can tell, this ROM is no joke.

Features:

It does not have USB Debugging. At all. Can't find it.

It does not have Google Play Store.

The ROM is heavily modified. There's no methods I know of to get ADB to detect this device.

You can't set the language to anything else. No English.

It reboots itself every 3 hours to clear caches, temporary files, etc. And then re-downloads all updates the ROM had updated before. (Wastes WiFi)

And since the HTC Flyer has been given to us, my brother requested that I flash the ROM to HTC Flyer stock RUU or something. The point is taken, but I don't know where to begin. First choice of ROM: Stock RUU.

Anyone know where to start?

EDIT:

Nope, using ADB with serial number failed. Device can't even be found.

UPDATE:

The tablet bricked itself when I decided to restart the tablet. I can no longer turn on the tablet, or tell if the tablet is charging or something. I'm going to a HTC store to get it fixed and reflash it to a stock HTC RUU rom. I guess there's no point in doing stuffs on my own once it's gotten out of hand.
