[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpcalhoun:
The Dev Edition S4 normally does not have a locked bootloader. I say normally because some users took an Over The Air update which did lock the bootloader. So it depends on whether the bootloader is a stock MDK bootloader or if the user took a subsequent OTA update which in turn locked / changed the bootloader. Also, there is no factor image for the Dev Edition, so if it is locked it is going to stay locked for the foreseeable future. As for your second question, I'm not sure that will work. I think the firmware differences between TMO and Verizon plus the difference between GSM and CDMA will not be easy to overcome. But I don't know that for sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
I'm not trying to be a know it all trust me lol but the dev s4 never got otas I don't believe. The users who locked then up did so by using Odin and retail firmware.

Just throwing that out there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpcalhoun:
I don't take that as you being a know it all, you're probably right. I just know some Dev owners did something to lock their bootloaders I just assumed (wrongfully) that it was an OTA of some sorts. Sorry for the misinformation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] asharad:
I know one user who received his DevEd about the same time as me. He received an OTA that locked his bootloader. I have never received an OTA, and I'm still running stock (more or less) DevEd.

It's funny how I bought the DevEd, because I wanted a guarantee that I could ROM the device. But I fell in love with the stock OS, and don't care if I ever have KitKat.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
No kidding? I didn't know any of them got OTAs. At least you have the option to flash whatever you want if you did get bored with stock.
[Ornate TrueSmart] PolluxGemini:
Hi Folks. First of all, I'm new here. I just created a profile to suggest you the following:

Pushbullet; it's an app that allows you to send and receive notifications, links, files, etc, between devices.

So, I was thinking if maybe somebody knows a way around to use this app as a substitute for the Osmart Companion, that doesn't work so well and also depends completely on bluetooth. I'm using it right now to manually send stuff from my smartphone to the TrueSmart, but I just found out that Pushbullet now supports Tasker integration, what makes me think that, if you know how, it is possible to create a profile on Tasker that allows you to automatically send a notification to your TrueSmart whenever you receive a SMS, for example.

However, despite being a huge fan of android and apps in general, my programming skills sucks really bad, even at Tasker, which I guess must be programming for beginners.

Has anyone already tried to do something related? Please let me know.

Thanks!
[Ornate TrueSmart] huelvy:
I haven´t try that app, but I´m using 'Notisync' and, at least for me and until now, it´s working. The only one thing I don´t have got: automatically unlock the screen (I´m using Oclock) and show a window with the notification content in. For this, I´m using 'Notify me!' app. It turns on the screen, but not unlock it (it only shows the notification content if the screen is already on). I continue investigating ;) .

I hope this helps someone.
[Ornate TrueSmart] dragonfly1113:
I have tried many apps and so far at least this one tells me when someone is calling, i cant get it to alert me of texts though, i use hangouts as my text service default app but i even tried the standard messages app and it still doesnt allow the texts to go through, did you have to do anything special for the texts?

as for pushbullet i started messing with it the other day but all it does it notify my watch that theres a message waiting on my phone i still need to look at the phone to see/reply to the message.

figured out a way with pushbullet and tasker to show who the text is from and what the message said, now if only there was a way to reply :)
[Ornate TrueSmart] huelvy:
I don´t use SMS and never try that. But I tried an app called 'Tablet talk' that can syncronize SMS and phone calls (even when you receive phone call, it shows a window showing the contact photo and bottons to interact with that call). I configured the phone as 'phone' and the watch as 'tablet'. The problema I had was the same: it doesn´t unlock the Oclock screen.
[Ornate TrueSmart] dragonfly1113:
Yeah i've been a user of tablet talk for a while and it is a good app just looking for others since i dont like always having to reconnect them together.
[Ornate TrueSmart] mortis2600:
Hey everyone,

I contacted the developers of Push Bullet a few weeks ago when I got my TS. He indicated that it was a space they wanted to occupy for wearables and tablets. They have a number of things they're rolling out for their primary app first, but it's on the slate for the future.
[Ornate TrueSmart] lordscipio:
how did you guys get it to install? Side load? It wont let me install from the play store since it says it is incompatible with device. I love pushbullet, and would love to use it with the TS
[Ornate TrueSmart] dragonfly1113:
Yeah side loaded from dropbox.

sent from my note 3 running beans.
[Ornate TrueSmart] cdrom1028:
For sms I have been using google voice, hangouts and the XVoice+ Xposed plugin. here's how it works:

1) I have moved most people to use mt GV number to reach me as I have several PH numbers so step one is socialize the GV ph number.

2) XVoice+ forces all sms through the google voice app

3) in the google voice app > Settings > Sync and Notifications set recieve text messages to "via the messaging app.

4) if you want to use hangouts go through the steps to make it the default SMS/MMS client otherwise you can use what ever SMS app you want.

default result is I get the same conversation on my phone as on my PC as on my watch. For me this works out well.. the only issues i have are broadcast messages that are short message based like twitter to sms. Google Voice will not support these messages.
[Ornate TrueSmart] lordscipio:
thanks for the response, was hoping to get updates via the playstore. Oh well, off to find an apk on google search!

glad to hear it works fone on the TS though!

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transformador:
I am thinking of buying an samsung galaxy tab 3 7 inch, but i wonder for how long the tablet will be supported. Do you think it ever even gets KitKat? As far as i can see, there are not even 4.3 roms out there :) Do you think this will change and will Samsung provide Official updates?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NJ_RAMS_FAN:
personally, if you can a few bucks, I would get the 8" model. but if not, i don't see the 7" getting kit kat. I would wait for the 2014 model.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeceWyld:
Official support notice for gtab 3 7 with Kitkat should be here in a little while. I think the Sprint devices got their updates first already.
[Galaxy Note II, Galaxy S III Developer Discussion ] MattBooth:
I'm scratching my head at this one.

I'm building form AOSP source here: https://github.com/UltimaAOSP

When you build for the i9300, and pause music or a video, you cannot resume as the stream seems to crash. It happens with streaming over the internet, or locally.

I use the same tree to build for the SGS4 jfltexx, which doesn't face this issue. So I can narrow it down to something smk4x12 or i9300 specific.

Problem:My HTC One X is stuck on Logo screen.

The battery depleted and when I tried to recharge the phone it won't go past Logo screen.

Attempt at solution : I held down the volume down and power button and and selected recovery from the boot menu but it did not work.

I noticed a lot of the people with the same problem as me have some idea about software development and have experience in android, I do not know what flashing is or how to do it and many of the solution that were suggest said to flash the phone.

Extra details: I noticed my phone said locked on the boot menu. I do have some programing experience but not with android.

What do you mean by bootloader unlocked and rooted?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
He was asking if your phone is modified, which it doesn't seem to be. If your phone won't boot up there's very little chance of recovering any data from the device in its current state. Were your contacts synced with Google? If so you should have no problem recovering those as they'll be stored in your Google account.

You could unlock the bootloader and install TWRP recovery, then you can mount the sd card (internal storage) and recover any photos, music, etc from the device onto your PC. From there you can install a custom ROM which will at least get your phone booting again. You should check out the links in my signature, they contain a wealth of very useful information that you'll need to read up on before attempting anything.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Recovery works fine if you saw a green circle on the screen or red triangle with exclamation point.

Your phone is not modified, so what you are seeing is

stock

recovery.

I know its too late for this now, and hindsight is 20/20. But I've said it many times here: If your data is important to you

back it up

. Data recovery after a disaster happens is too late, as it doesn't always recover your data anyway.

I believe if you run the RUU, it won't wipe the "virtual" SD, if that is where the files you want are located. As for contacts, as timmaaa mentioned if contacts were stored to your Google account, they are automatically synched to the "cloud" and accessible on a PC, and will also automagically sync back to your phone after your get it running again.

I have the Java SDK installed for eclipse what should be my next step since I need admin permission how do I unlock the bootloader with my phone not going past the HTC screen logo
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
You're not developing software. Unlocking the bootloader is just about following instructions.

Just go to HTCdev.com, select "Unlock Bootloader" and follow the instructions. Pick "All other supported models" from the list of phones.

From there, refer to timmaaa's beginner's guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2593382

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zurce:
Hello.

I'm the developer of an app called StreetPass Riiley , It's not available on the store (but you can find it on gbatemp/reddit) it's an app aimed for people with 3DS that creates an access point and cycles a bunch of Nintendo Macs to give you StreetPasses.

The app works great until 4.2 but now with my Nexus 5 I don't find a way to change the mac of the Access Point created by the Wi-Fi Tether. I can change the mac of the device changing the "/persist/wifi/.macaddr" file but when I start the Access Point this one generates with a random mac

Do you have any idea how to change this?

Flash your device with stock 4.1.2 via Odin and then flash a version of 4.2.2 which is prior to the 97mb update. Then you can use GENNXT or Pyramid K3 which are TW based ROMS

Kitkat based ROMs are stable upto a mark but not bug free. CM11, CosmicCM and IOS 7 Aspiration have dual SIM with small bugs.

Please reply don't get pissed off, am new to this forum and rooting
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DMJoh:
So, installing a custom ROM won't delete your contacts, but a factory wipe which is essential before installing a custom ROM will erase your contacts. So you should keep a back up for future use. I am not explaining how to do that. Also if you need to revert back to the stock ROM u use now you can create a Nandroid backup to external SD card, also just in case if u mess up with installation. Most importantly you need to backup your EFS partition. You should keep this backup for ever, because its necessary if you lose your IMEI number.

And all about keeping data after flashing, its your wish, if u want the data, keep it or delete it. And to know if the data is backed up, see the app u use to backup or check the storage to which u backup.
