do i need to be rooted to install it?
[General Topics] mantamod:
Hi,

Yes you need a rooted device to be able to place the MantaMod gl-interceptor files into /system/lib/egl, where the Android OpenGL ES drivers reside.

Once installed, subsequent usage doesn't need root access - you can run your games as usual and the MantaMod drivers will be loaded by the Android OS.

Cheers

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Armando Penblade:
About three days ago, in the middle of the day, I tried to unlock my Verizon S3 using the power button, but it remained on a black screen. I pulled the battery, replaced it, and tried again. It came on.

Over the next day, it performed this behavior three more times; this time, however, the "black screen, unresponsive" happened while I was using the device (e.g., reading reddit in Reddit Sync when the screen darkens and the device becomes unresponsive and silent). The first two times, a battery pull let me restart the device.

The third time, however, nothing would restart the S3. A different, fully charged (and tested working) S3 battery would not start it. Plugging it into multiple chargers and multiple computers--both with and without a battery--would not start it. Plugging it into a PC fails to install drivers, and the S3 is identified as a "QHSUSB_DLOAD" device by Windows.

Plugging it in sans battery will sometimes briefly illuminate the red charging light, but it eventually turns off on its own, or goes off if I hold the Power button or put a battery in. I cannot access Recovery or Download Mode using the standard button combinations; there is no vibration, no flash on the screen, no change on the LED, and no sound. No input I give the phone appears to have any effect at all.

----------------------------------------------

The phone was running an unlocked, rooted version of 4.1.2, but had no other modifications, and had not had any major system changes in the months prior to this starting. I haven't recently messed with the bootloader, taken the 4.3 update, unrooted, rerooted, or anything else aside from letting apps update naturally and using the phone as always (reading reddit, using Hangouts to chat, listening to music with PowerAmp).

I read about the "Sudden Death Syndrome," but that supposedly applies only to International S3s. I read about hardbricking via screwing up your bootloader or triggering the eFUSE protections, but since I wasn't messing around with any of that for months now and also since I did not take the 4.3 update, I suspect it wasn't the cause.

Reps at the store weren't able to resuscitate the device, but told me I was ineligible for warranty service (I have extended) due to a hairline fracture on the case an inch below the power button (this crack has been there for months).

The device hasn't suffered any water damage or recent drops and was otherwise fully functional before the first blackscreen a few days back. I can't afford an Insurance swap right now, so self-repair is my only hope of having a working phone before my next paycheck hits in a few weeks :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Quite a story, somehow you hard bricked it, This happens sometimes and I can't really explain why, but here's your fix:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2581166

Make sure you have all the necessary equipment and use the 4.1 debrick image in the thread, you should be able to get it working again without a jtag repair.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Armando Penblade:
This doesn't seem to have any effect on the proceedings.

I created the recovery IMG SD Card, but after putting it into the S3, pressing the power button on the phone (or plugging it into a PC) still has zero effect. It's like it's not even trying to boot and failing (or failing over to SD Card). Basically, pressing the power button/plugging in has zero effect at all, not just an unsuccessful effect.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
But that's what it's supposed to look like when it's hard bricked, keep trying to write it then boot with it. Eventually it's going to work, unless you somehow fried your motherboard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Armando Penblade:
Is it possible that writing to the SD card via another smartphone (my old Droid 1) would cause the write operation to fail? I don't have any other method of getting the PC to communicate with a microSD card except via cellphones, since I don't have a USB adapter or even a microSD to SD adapter.

Edit: The D1/PC do recognize that something has happened to the SD card after Win32diskimager is done with it, because the D1 reports that it's now a "blank SD card (unsupported file system)" and Windows can't properly mount it anymore in that state. So, W32DI is definitely doing something to it. Tried 3 times now; is there some upper bound on how many to go for before assuming the motherboard died?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Not really, if you're getting that error message I'm assuming this should work. At the very least you could get a jtag repair and that'll definitely fix it. You could always try the other debrick file available from that thread also.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
I searched and tried updating busy box yet re isn't letting me rename downloaded files. It won't let me if I try on internal memory or SD card. I got mp3 files that weren't named with similar conventions as other files. Legally downloaded but the files weren't named similarly. My OCD is pissing me off! If I have root and busy box installed, I "should" be able to do whatever the hell I want! I tried a different, forgot the name, file manager than root explorer. ES, just remembered. Still no go!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] w8setter:
First download root checker from playstore, to insure root...Secondly what android version are you on kitkat or jellybean?..Thirdly open up superuser & on the apps tab click root explorer and select forget, then retry renaming files...Also make sure binaries are updated thru supersu and both root explorer and supersu are up to date...

Hope this helps...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
I figured it out. Capitalization isn't seen as a filename change. If I add a letter to the name, then save, then rename to what I wanted, then it works. Yeah an extra step but it works. Say the file is named 01. intro.mp3. I want to capitalize the i. I change it to a01. intro.mp3. Next I rename it again to 01. Intro.mp3. It accepts the filename change then.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humayunl:
I'm running CM11 M3 on my G2. The one thing I miss from LG's stock ROM is the quality of pictures from the LC camera app. The kitkat camera app baked into CM11 has pretty average picture quality.

Is there anything I can do to improve the camera quality? I've tried installing an APK of the camera app someone extracted from the G2 rom but it seems to be an older version, there are some modes that crash and the quality isn't as good as the lg stock camera app.

I was just wondering if anyone knows anything about a camera app or some other tweaks/threads that talk about this stuff. If I can improve the camera quality on the CM11 G2 it would be awesome.

I plan to upgrade my tf300t to cm11. But now i met some problem

my tf300t is using 4.2.1, and bootloader is ww_epad-110.6.1.27.5

first i unlock the device, then i fastboot twrp v2.6.3.0 in it(I tried several versions, twrp or recovery, but all of those couldn't read internal memory or ext sd card. only this version is ok)

then i wipe data and made it factory reset

finally i choose cm11 to install, and then it told that error flashing zip

and now when i boot the device, it won't go to the android system but go to twrp by itself :eek:

what should i do now? should i root it before i install cm11? :crying:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Lightbird:
hello,

totay i gonna tell you how to remove the .thumbnails folder which contains all of your pictures and Videos in an compremized version which costs a lot of internal Storage depending on your photos and Videos you saved anywhere on the Device. it has been only tested on 14.2.A.1.136 and you dont need Root for it.

lets get started:

download ES Explorer or Solid Explorer

in the options activate show hided files and folders

stop the Album App under Settings > Apps > all

deleate the .thumbnails folder which you can find under internal storage > DCIM, also check the external storage > DCIM

if you find the folder(s): create a new file whith ES Explorer or Solid Explorer named .thumbnails in the same folder like the folder was.

reboot

open Album, wait 10 minutes

check if the folder(s) is (are) still there, if not its a sucess

the only effect you will notice is that the Album App now needs a little bit longer to read the Files, but you now have more storage for other stuff :).

Known bugs:

sometimes the Album now shows broken triangles. In this chase you have to remove the created .thumbnails file.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] TimeTurn:
To explain why this works :

Linux (and Android since it is based on Linux) does not allow folders and files with the same name like Windows does. If a file with the name exists, the system fails to create a folder with that name and vice versa.

It's a quiet old trick, I use it for years now on my phones, but very effective.

U can fxz back to ICS using rsd..no need to go to service centre.

Kernel is a program which acts as intermediate between hardware and os for their communication.

I much prefer the note pro than any 10 inch tablet out there as its nearly the same size as an A4 paper and the weight man will never be a problem as its very balanced with its size :) and the screen is outstanding for multimedia consumption and for work am sure an A4 size of screen real estate is big enough specially for a nice android touch device. there is one of the best reviews on youtube right now on mobiletechreviews channel with a very detailed walkthrough that maybe help you out with your decision :) :cyclops:

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] pierrekid:
Not at all. It really does come down to screen size. The resolution on the 10.1 is better but obviously the screen on the 12.2 is bigger. For me it's all about portability and the 12.2 is simply out of that range. If you plan on using the tablet at your office or your home office then I can see the point of the 12.2. If you plan on carrying it around the extra 2 inches of real estate just don't justify the hassle of transportation.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] merics:
Having used both, I can say the ingoing thoughts of the two being the same devoid the size is far from true. An associate of mine had the same dilemma this weekend and made the switch. We both have arrived to the same conclusion that the Note Pro is a remarkably different experience than the 10.1 variant. The S-Pen seems to be better integrated throughout. Unlike the 10.1 out of the box, have yet to see any lag with the 12.2.

Do the swap and give it a good unbiased look over during your return window period, I think you'll find it's a keeper. One disappoint is the accesories didn't make it the shelves when launched. I ordered a $10 case from Amazon with free 2-day shipping to hold me over.
