[Samsung Galaxy Gear] MrRedPants:
Hello

I recently acquired a Gear and have been reading, learning and working on it. I have a Verizon Note 2 running Alliance Rom (@beanstown). I've rooted the gear, installed TWRP and installed the latest Null (build 23). I was on V700XXUAMK7, although this morning it updated to V700XXUBNA3 via Gear.

So, first, just same basic questions:

1. Installing apps - once connected via BT DUN, I can install apps from playstore - so, I'm not clear what all the discussion is about pushing apks to the device and then installing them (?). The only thing that came up this morning was google voice app said it wasn't compatible with device, so obviously sideloading this would make sense.

2. Notifications - in almulder's tutorial, there are different tutorials/recommendations regarding notifications. I assume the stock gear notifications still work, plus using Nova's unread count shows gmail messages anyway. I just want to be notified when I receive a text, gmail or google voice message (see below).

3. Re installing stock ROM - is this done by just flashing a zip via TWRP or is this via Odin

4. Google now / voice search - doesn't seem to be working. It listens and translates the text but then nothing happens. I was testing it wanting to send a text. I guess S-Voice is what has to be used (?)

Customizing (why I really created this post):

Although Null ROM is obviously very cool - and the idea of having basically a full phone interface is cool, I just don't really need or want that on the watch. So, I'm trying to figure out the best way to customize the Null ROM to my desires. All I really want to do is to receive notifications of messages (gmail, sms, google voice) - AND reply to them, preferably via voice to text with minimal taps. I'd also like to be able to take photos and share them straight from watch. That's really it! I actually like the large icons of the original stock launcher, it's just missing the functionality.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts / experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] LaDamian:
I like what you are looking for, but I haven't seen a way to do most of what you are requesting. I'm really looking forward to the google wearables SDK that is supposed to come out in the next week or so. I'm hoping that will provide an answer for people looking for more functionality.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] AndiF85:
1. The play store is a memory hog so I removed it and just Bluetooth apks to the gear then install. Also found this to be quicker then trying to play around on the small screen.

2. From the gear manager app on your phone go to notifications then down the bottom you can select choose to receive notifications from more apps. This is how I got gmail to work.

3. Sorry can't help as I haven't looked back since installing null rom.

4. Once again can't help as I use s-voice

Customizing:

When flashing null rom you can choose not to install nova or Alex launcher. I would think you would lose some functionality though. I installed nova but mainly use the stock user interface and only go to nova to access things I can't access from stock ui.

I only use the gear for notifications and calls also. You can reply to msgs via text to speech from the options when you receive a notification on the gear.

I know the watch shares photos to the phone automatically but I'm not sure on how to share to say Facebook for example. You can share via Bluetooth to another device direct from the gear via the gallery.

Hope I have assisted with some of your queries and welcome to the world of the gear.

I will add though if you plan on using your watch for anything that requires a keyboard, downloading Fleksy keyboard is a must. Makes life so much easier.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] MrRedPants:
THANK YOU FOR YOUR RESPONSE!

I'm getting the hang of things. Now that I realize the "stock" rom is essentially the touchwiz home launcher with some apps things make more sense and I'm able to kind of have a hybrid between the stock and the null rom with nova. For the life of me I can't find any setting that allows me to reply from the touchwiz launcher when there are notifications. Using S-voice I can easily send a message and I even see the "quick" replies set up on the galaxy gear app on my phone, but, can't figure it out.

Anyway, thanks again - getting closer to good functionality.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] AndiF85:
Just having a look I think you can only use text to speech replies for text msgs. Should be in the options menu when viewing the msg on your gear.

weather clock and null 23

My 3d weather clock suddenly stopped working. It's not the ram I was on null 19 and 15. I tried both several times and just left it with null23. Something is eating away at my ram. It's gotta be that. Any suggestions. If it means anything and probably not a coincidence that after I upgraded to 4.2.2 my battery is draining very very quickly. I saw on a thread the play store eats away at the battery so I'm going to take that out. Any suggestions?

[Galaxy S 4 General] Kriomag:
thx

very good tutorial :)

Some time ago i figured it my self and i disassembled my S4 and cleaned the sensor, it was 43 before cleaning and now it is 12-15 (no proximity value), but it is still bad compared to S3 or S4 Active - they have 0 :)

Samsung messed up this and now i cant even go for warranty beceuse of %#%#%#% knox 0x1 :(

And the worst part is that i will have to still buy another Samsung because their hardware is always the best, camera, cpu, battery... i dont want Xperia with crappy camera and non replacable battery, i dont want thc because of worse camera, i dont care about aluminium body - i always use Cases anyway.

Last time i cleaned the sensor it was fine for about month or two.. its bad, i dont want to disassemble my S4 every month...

Tell me, how can i sell it with knox 0x1 ? ;) i need some money back from this crap to buy S5 or Note 3
[Galaxy S 4 General] Crescendo Xenomorph:
[MENTION=4351464]Kriomag[/MENTION]: My black Note 3 also got the same dust problem...

And I 've been cleaning it (by disassemble) several times already...

I'm gonna try the foam thingy or maybe silicone seal to fix the speaker seal....
[Galaxy S 4 General] hare89:
51 ms is min for my s4 is that good ?never tried to clean it ..
[Galaxy S 4 General] jimmy2x2x:
Great post, thanks for the tips!
[Galaxy S 4 General] Skipjacks:
Yes. Using that sensor finder app I get around 50 at best when I run my finger over the sensor as fast as I can.

Basically 50ms is as fast as you can run your finger over the sensor. That is what the app is really measuring.

That tells you your sensor is registering things without delay.
[Galaxy S 4 General] alex1028:
Fixing broken proximity sensor

Hold the phone by the upper edges with both fingers and press hard. Watch ADC values (dial *#0*# first to get to hardware test first of course).

See the ADV values go down to 50-55. Let it sit for a few minutes. See if they stay there. That's it. It is not the dust.
[Galaxy S 4 General] barankas:
This is true.

Had tried a lot of methods, cleaning, echo 0 and 1, etc.

Doesn't work at all.

I even remove my screen protector for testing this, which at first I thought it's because my screen protector is dirty. (Half true, it's better after I removed it)

If you had disassemble your S4 previously, you will know that the motherboard is missing 1 screw.

Conclusion:

Issue is with upper edges. If you press hard enough, it will work normal.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Der-Knuffi:
For me the app "proximity fix" from play store fixed the problem...

hello guyz

Sorry for my bad english .

I''m here cuz my htc one max was out of charge ,

and when i plugged it to charge it won't charge ,

i tried to open it and same

#i tried to open it with recovery mode and smae

#led light not working too

#i tried different chargers with different outlits .

what to do plz :( ?

[HTC One Max] ball9077:
Same here, vzw Htc One max no charge, no power....

One foggy hungover little extra bad on me. Was firewater s-off with temporary root, twrp 2

6.3 recovery flashed fine but never had SU commands only SH. In a hungover haze I noticed twrp had 2.7 open recovery out and without due thought I downloaded it to update the recovery. I blatantly force flashed the zip from my phone using CWMR. foolish of me straight out, no excuses. Phone rebooted twrp recovery flashed 2.7 zip and then power dropped immediately. Will not power up/charge.

I got the USB/DLOAD message. Been reading every since to self fix . Would appreciate advice on proper path to take. I've been reading on one hand since it was S-Off it possibly blew the LCD and no bueno brick city. Yet I've also seen success with flashing the RUU as a possible. Other option I found so far was run the JTAG method with Ubuntu and/or try shorting the 2/5 pins with 300k resister.

I'm not concerned about warranty, I would really appreciate anyone who has the time to respond and experience with this indescretion. I would prefer not to damage it further with incorrect fixes if possible. I believe i just jacked my boot image and need to use the RUU method unless the LCD was blown from over clocked over voting .

Direction on the correct method if any is appreciated. I'm completely open to answer questions i may not have addressed. Totally thoughtless and my fault yet I'm very clear on what I did to cause it. Many years electronics repair, still medicore Linnux skills so please go easy on me there. I just need the correct path if known. Im a big boy and fully capable of learning it on my own so no need for you to feel you have to list script and hold my hand.... but a good ass chewing is never out of line ") Thanks for any experience you wish to share.

someone help please :( ?
[HTC One Max] SHANENATAS:
Phones dead, no led, no charging, no button combo brings it back. Everything worked great, plugged it in Friday night like always, wake up Saturday to find it was off while on the charger. The cable and charger that it came with, and girlfriends DNA charges on it no problem. Took it to Verizon and they tried a few things, nothing they did helped, like I was surprised. So they are sending me one, but I want to know what happened and how to fix it. This seems to be a common problem, but it seems most people at least get it to power back on at one point.
[HTC One Max] kurabiye:
Exactly what was happen to me some time ago.The only solution i found is to open case and charge the battery about 10 seconds.I advise you to use usb port of your computer to charge it. Btw if you let it drain to zero you will have to do this procedure again :(
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] William Yeung:
Dear All,

I would like to share a bit more information on what I found regarding 2.21 IPL/SPL behaviour.

1. Now it is impossible to backup the rom from another machine with pre-2.21 ROM and then try to flash it into the machine by SD Card (i.e. use console mode to connect to the pre-2.21 ROM machine, execute r2sd, then push the SD card to the 2.21 machine w/o CID unlock and boot into flash mode (camera button), it will say 'Not allow update' in the status bar)

2. Now it is also impossible to backup the rom from 2.21 machine using console mode (i.e. r2sd), thus I got no way to extract 2.21 IPL/SPL from my machine. Again this is assumed the machine is not CID unlocked. Machine will say 'not enough security level blah blah....'

3. So what I want to know is- If a machine which is pre-CID unlocked, upgraded to ship rom 2.21+

a. is that still possible to dump the firmware out with r2sd?

b. Also will it accept rom flash in SD card dumped out from other pre 2.21 machine?

Hope we could sort out a solution to free all 2.21+ guys :)

Result from JAFWM

Open nk.nbf file with JAFWM v2.2 (Dopod Official Rom)

here is the result.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] faria:
the anser to your question on point 3.a is yes.done it myself.now reflashing your device with another ones dump it may cause problems because it also flashes back the cid [whatever state it is] and since every device has a unique cid code that is related to the imei it may cause problems like the dreaded DATA CRASH one,but in other hand it could work.u just have to try to find out.if you need a unlocked dump let me know a got one ready to install.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] William Yeung:
How about the bootloader mode test result? anyone could provide?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hdubli:
Well I think there is a way and may be summitter can tell better.

one use typhoon nbf tools and remove the CID and save the nk.nbf and flash it to device.

secondly dump the rom parts with typho5 and just make a custom ROM with the same IPL/SPL with a new CE ROM...

I hope I am correct
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] William Yeung:
That wont work, you have to try it out yourself. The main issue is if you got a machine comes with 2.21.0001+, then r2sd would not work. This is the essential step for any rom dump operation so far.

Typhoon NBF is even worse because since 2.0 (AKU 2) rom its not able to read by Typhoon NBF.

*faria: Is that mean you can still use r2sd to dump your rom even after your machine upgraded to 2.21+ ROM? Then if there is an O2 Mini S with such config updated, dump rom out, use typho5 to rebuild a new ROM without CID, chance is that we could use that to patch the unit with other rom versions.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] faria:
yes you can still use r2sd in any rom above 2xxxx,but i do not use r2sd for my backups/restores, i use [wizBackup] because it bacups to sd and pc without any conversion required unlike r2sd.

i just made a sd backup of rom 2.23 and restore with out any problems.

rebuilding any rom will not work in a machine cidlocked because when we build the roms it requires the cid field to be blank,if it was that easy any modified rom like [sumiters] would do because all of those roms have the cid field blank when they are converted with nbf connverter.

to be clear about the part of the cid lock that every one is trying to unlock is not in the rom ,it is in the machine in a diferent adress [place if you like] itself so until someone cracks the cid area of the new roms there not much you can do.the problem is noone has the tools for the new roms to bypass cid.

the lokiwiz tool patches the cid area of the device only it doe nothing to yor rom.

so if you try to install a patched rom the machine will compare the cid code in the rom with the one in the machine if it does not match it does not install.1 way arround it to buid you own rom and put the machine cid code on the rom ,the it will install .but that means u cannot create a universal rom, it has to be 1 rom per singe machine with matching cid number.

and yes u can use typho5 to decode/incode 2.xxx roms with any problems,i have been using it i my roms without problems.

Hi Raskal,

If "Wizard is not such a big problem", why don't you keep with the spirit of xda-dev and share your observations and results on the G4 issues with the board?

There are two major areas where I think you have an opportunity to contribute to the community:

1 - Can you assist in the modification of the nb2nbf tool so that both G3 and G4 bootloaders can be rebuilt into an image?

2 - We need some guidance on CID unlocking 2.xx. What have you found in the BL that has made the usual process ineffective?

I'm assuming that since you are a member here, you're willing to give as much as take like the rest of us. I have a great respect for what you have done with various phones of the years, and appreciate that you are in business. However I hope that while you're here you will contribute to the free flow of information.
