[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
Arguably, this would be a hardware issue. You can experience this with almost any year-old querty phone...

The question here is :

1. whether the dirt under the dome or on the pcb is causing this?

2. whether the loosened sticker above dome is causing this?

I doubt dome itself can be worn out...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
I have two used PQ from the US. Both have had this issue in vanilla ROM. (Also in CM11.)

Not as extreme as mine (about 1 year and 10 month old) but the issue is there.

I suppose that this issue was the reason to not keep those devices :D
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
The input code hasn't changed for a year or so. Therefore seeing it as cm11 issue ("differs from build to build") is nonsense - just run stock firmware on your device for a while... It'll be the same.

It's clearly the hardware - the contacts wear off and produce more and more chaotic output at the moment when buttons are being pressed and released.

Regarding the software side - what we could do to help to overcome this issue is to increase the debounce time.

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...1.0/arch/arm/mach-msm/board-mmi-keypad.c#L168

Currently it's set to 15ms. The max is 20ms (it has to be the power of 5, so increase to 20ms is the only easy option):

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr.../drivers/input/keyboard/pmic8xxx-keypad.c#L42

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...drivers/input/keyboard/pmic8xxx-keypad.c#L586

There's also ghost key detection taking place in pmic8xxx-keypad.c, so theoretically we could try to improve it. But I don't hold my breath expecting anyone to come up with improved algorithm for it.

I'm open for suggestions, but nothing done on SW side can be compared to the results achieved with clean HW contacts that produce less signal bounces.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
Thanks for the insight!

How can we, the average users who managed to keep up with nightly installs, try to apply this hack ? I don't think we can fork or recompile anything...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I've built a stock CM kernel with this value changed to 20.

See if it helps. Don't let the anykernel zip scare you, I assure you it's the CM kernel repacked with my anykernel edify scripts (I'm lazy.)

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] schmandroid:
Hi guys - I've had my notifications turned off, so only catching up with convo just now.

My key presses have had no issues since I cleaned the contacts on the pcb, I also swapped the disc out under the problematic key.

On my other Q I swapped the whole sticker inc discs, & it is also fine.

It def seemed to be a S/W issue, & I was getting frustrated with the ROMs, but in the end, it was H/W related.

If you are having issues, just try the clean. If you still have some trouble with certain keys, swap the disk with one from an un(barely)used key.

You may be pleasantly surprised.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
Before I flash a modified kernel, I've cleaned up (the metal pads and PCB).

atm it helps, the issue seems to be gone. But I think it won't last for a long time.

A bit OT: The keyboard technique used in the PQ is a bit complicated. Good for a flat device but hard to swap/repair. I would've used another PCB just for the keyboard... but I'm not an engineer.

Another thing: I found the reason for my random reboots. The ribbon cable is damaged and I replaced the screen-part. At least those random reboots should stop.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
This is what I ended up yesterday...

I exchanged + shaped domes with o shaped domes I procured when I was using Xperia X1 :(

The symptom was obviously cured, but who knows...

:D
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
That's crazy, surely took an hour or so to do it nicely.

Lets wait and klick on the keys until the issue comes back!

[Lenovo K900] zakzad:
Hi,

As you can guys see from the title, I got a problem with the WiFi in my K900. It keeps trying to turn on but never get on !

Its a middle east version device that I bought from Dubai, and it was all in English with play store so I didnt bother to root or flash.

So i kept it on stock and this problem has started accuring lately though i tried to wipe data and cache and did factory reset several times

Many thanks in advance.

*Edit: MAC adress on the device is somehow unavailable ...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dante`afk:
Is this possible?

For example if I download something on the phone, I'd like to have it also on the tablet, without having to download it manually again?

I just tested it by downloading some game on the phone, it is not showing up on the tablet though?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] farfromovin:
Apps won't be automatically installed across android devices as far as I know. Each individual device is treated as such. However, if you purchase an app for your phone, you can also download it on your tablet.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] BLueBLaze100:
Hi all,

I'm planning to get one of Samsung's new lineup tablets to replace my LG G pad 8.3 but I can't make my mind which one to get. I like the 8.4 form factor but it has a poor battery (4800 mah) compared to tab pro 10.1 (8220 mah).

A little personal background , I actually use two tablets in my daily life: iPad mini 2 (for browsing, apps) ,and Android powered (for downloading and watching movies and tv shows).

Any word of advice would be highly appreciated
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] nrage23:
The battery life on the Pro 8.4 is very good for this size tablet. The Pro 10.1 has much more internal area that is why the battery is bigger. The Pro 8.4 has a bigger battery (4800) than your Gpad (4600) and a much better processor. My brother has the retina iPad Mini and the Pro 8.4 has a better screen and the camera is actually pretty good.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] BLueBLaze100:
Thanks for replying, and yes G pad has 4600 mah which barely gives me 6 hours of screen on time so I figured tab pro 8.4 with higher resolution would fail to achieve even 7 hours in best circumstances. I don't really understand why Samsung didn't provide a bigger mah capacity while apple could with iPad mini 2 which has 6500 mah with the same size (despite square like appearance).
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] will6316:
I get 8 to 9 hrs of screen time on the 8.4 with 30% brightness.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] BLueBLaze100:
Cool that's good news
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] nrage23:
The newest iPad mini is noticeably thicker and heavier.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] BLueBLaze100:
I think it is the slippery grip what gives such impression but according to GSMarena http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5735&idPhone2=5946

They surprisingly have the exact wieght 331g, and the ipad mini 2 is just a tad thicker (7.5 vs 7.2).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Wayno-san:
So the company I work for implemented Maas360 and the app has now disabled my access to corporate email from my phone because it's rooted. I tried loading Rootcloak plus but the phone refused to boot with it (Android screen with Exclamation point) and I had to restore a nandroid copy. My questions are:

1. Can I unroot just the stock ROM and still have safestrap installed so I can access CM11 in Slot 1? Or will Maas360 still consider this 'rooted'? (if that is even possible)

2. Is there any other way to temporarily disable root without tearing up the phone so Maas360 stops hassling me?

3. If not, how far do I have to unroot? I don't see the "unroot" option in the superuser app that's mentioned in other threads. Do I have to delete the ROM in slot 1 and safestrap also?

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] welder73:
You can try Voodoo RootKeeper,it has an option temp-unroot.

Yeah, I was going to try that but found another post where someone already stated that it doesn't work with MaaS360. :-\
[Motorola Droid RAZR] abandon42:
MaaS 360 Success

Based on the conflicting reports of success with MaaS 360 and rootcloak, I decided to give it a shot.

Here was my process on an S4:

wipe your device/Remove MaaS

root/Flash: I used TWRP, auto-su, and OT49H【4.4.2】Google Play Edition

install 'freezer', xposed, and xposed module rootcloak (not rootcloak+/cydia due to negative reports)

install Maas and use freezer to freeze it immediately

add MaaS to rootcloak's application list

reboot

unfreeze MaaS

Profit!

Failing to remove MaaS first will generate a non-compliance email. From then on I couldn't block MaaS effectively.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sumit0110:
Hii.. same problem for me.. doesnt work with rootcloak+, so will try rootcloak and xposed now. But your step 1 below says 'wipe your device/Remove MaaS' ...so I hope you mean wipe device is optional.. only uninstalling Maas should help right..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bobo89:
I even had MaaS360 shoot non-compliance. Installed rootcloak, added MaaS to list and reboot, and it work, rectified the non-compliance (no wipe needed on my end)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] oorvashe:
Thanks abandon42. I followed your steps and its working perfectly. your are a rockstar
[Motorola Droid RAZR] abandon42:
Update

I've gotten exchange access without MaaS by copying the exchange settings MaaS configures and manually configuring them on a clean device.

May not work in your corporate environment, may get you audited, doesn't give vpn access, but my life is so much simpler without MaaS.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Brandonium:
Does anyone know if this will work on the Lollipop version of the Google Play Edition ROM? From what I understand, xposed doesn't work on that version so you would end up triggering Maas360. That being said, what if you installed that ROM and unrooted prior to installing Maas360. Thoughts?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] amarrajesh:
Can you please elaborate in detail how did you copy the exchange settings to work in clean device without using MaaS ?

---------- Post added at 11:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 PM ----------

Which version of MaaS360 works with Rootcloak? I added MaaS to Rootclock and rebooted. On opening MaaS it autocloses! :(
[Motorola Droid RAZR] lilbordr:
I'm having the same issue here. Maas faults out when on RootCloak's block list.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dexter1123:
All version of MaaS360 before 5.13 works with Root Cloak. Older version can be downloaded using Aptoide. Version 5.13 and above are not working some how. I am also using Lockscreen disabler module to by pass the security password prompt.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] abandon42:
Sorry, I'm not on MaaS anymore so I can't say for sure; it was working at the time of the post but it may require some experimentation to work properly, and I'm sure other people would appreciate it if you post any success you have.

MaaS still configures an exchange account on your phone - you can see the settings under your accounts.

My current preferred solution is just to have email/calendar access via mailwise which allows circumvention of remote device administration.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] twedie:
Hello

I speak very little English, excuse me for my English

I'm not new to the Root,I have a Samsung S4 Root with a lot of application for whom I need a root

My problem is that my company asked me to set the phone control app MaaS360

I installed MaaS360, the app tells me that I do not respect the safety and policy MaaS360 tells me to reset the phone to the original without Root.

I seek a way to make him believe that the phone is not root

Do you have any idea?

It's very urgent

hi all,

i tried to search unsuccessfully this forum about the topic. please feel free to correct me and point me to the right link.

for the last three months i am using the nexus 5 and i tether using the included hotspot. it has password protection. but it does not have the option for network access control like mac address filtering. so i have no way to see actually what devices are connected and are using the hotspot.

i used to use the app wifitether in a different android phone previously that had that feature. today after all this time i turned on the said app on the other phone and connected my laptop. went to the kitchen for 15 minutes and came back and checked the client log of the app. within just 15 minutes two other devices tried to connect and failed :eek: that got me worried. i understand that my regular connection is password protected but is there any way for me to apply a mac addy filtering control? or to see what devices are connected at any time?

thanks.
