Hey XDA,

What are some of the best widgets that you guys use on your homescreen? I'm looking for some clean and stylish calendar, time, and weather widgets.

Post your homescreens if you'd like!

Beautiful Widgets or HD widgets are the best in my opinion.

Please Note: I am not a complete Noob.

I was running the Root 666 Odin Flashed Stock Rom. I was already rooted and everything was fine, I wanted to update with a Tmobile OTA. The Phone said it was ready to upgrade, I went ahead and did the upgrade. when I was in recovery I pushed the back botton to go back to a previuos screen. However the phone rebooted, when the phone came on: It gave me a message that the upgrade was unseccesfuly.

Now the phone has lost Super User (app still there but no files to support it, so it closes automaticly), lost my custom recovery, and I am still on 4.1.1

when I tried to ODIN flash the new Root 666, the phone goes into a Manuel Stock Recovery. (there is no triangle anymore)

Odin recognizes the phone, but does not flash. The lines inside Odin, shows when the phone is connected. I clicked the PDA botton, and then Start. HOWEVER - Odin says it has compeleted, but takes less than 1 second; And the final line say ( completed 0 / Failed 0)

there is no change after I reboot, I don't know what else to try. I also tried to use Terminal Elmulator and the recovery file, but was also unseccesful with this method.

can someone please help, I need Root for various reasons. I don't want to lose it. PLEASE HELP!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Can you flash Custom Recovery and then flash SuperSU zip that way.

If you are planning on flashing Root66, flash the 4.1.1 Root66 alone. Don't flash the latest 4.3 Root66 unless you know what you are getting into. ( Read Knox, Efuse and Warranty Bit)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] romlover:
Where doni find the zip files, will u please send me a link. Or name the thread where i can go to. Very much appreciate the advise, btw.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Check my Sig for links.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] romlover:
Hello Doc, I tried to flash the files from your signature. However I got an error message for both the cwm and su files. I picked the latest ones on ur page. While in stock recovery. The phone said failed to verify whole signature file.

Should I have picked an older file? And if so how do I know which one is the correct file for my phone. I have a Tmobile T999 running 4.1.1
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
You flash CWM or TWRP with Odin or Mobile Odin. Once that's successful, THEN you flash the SuperSU zip file after booting into CWM or TWRP.

Neither can be flashed with Stock Recovery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] romlover:
[MENTION=3639717]Perseus71[/MENTION] - I am having a problem with ODIN, its not flashing my phone (with all due respect) I had stated that in the original question. Mobile Odin says i need Root to work. I lost both CWM and SU when I tried to upgrade. Im still running 4.1.1. the first time i rooted the phone all i did was pick the file with the PDA button the hit start.

I tried flashing root 666, i tried flashing the recovery file by its self. Odin says:

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> CWM_Touch_6.0.4.5.tar.md5 is valid.

<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<OSM> Leave CS..

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

nothing happens after that. no change.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
1. Make sure you have Odin version 3.07 or newer.

2. Make sure the Phone was in Download mode when you plugged in. If it was in download mode, check your drivers. Doc's signature has correct drivers.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] romlover:
Greetings from the land of 4.3 rooted :). I want to thank u all for advise. I finally figured out what in was doing wrong. Thanks again!!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Care to post what it was here? That way if someone comes across this thread with the same problem theyll know what to do. Thx!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] romlover:
Well I was going into recovery, when I should have been going into download mode. I know its retarded (complete noob move)

Download mode is = volume DOWN + home + power

Recovery mode is = volume UP + home + power

it took me a while to notice, maybe because I flash a lot of roms. I would automatically went straight to Recovery, I read the post over and over Until I noticed there was a difference between the two. I already had root, you would of thought th second time around it would be easier. Just another example of why WE (noobs) all need to read and follow directions carefully.

thanks again.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thanks for the explanation! Trust me you are not the first and wont be the last to make a similar mistake! So that post may end up helping others. Glad you figured it out!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] UsernameWasTaken:
So, about 24h ago, my phone lost the ability to dispense and intake sound. Just like that. A peculiar thing is that only audio jack works.

I didn't drop it or hit it or damaged it in any way, nor did anyone else, the phone was with me all the time. It just stopped playing the sound whether it's a ringing or sms or a notif of any kind. Music don't play on speaker, and when a call happens, there is absolutely no sound on either end of the line.

I did a factory reset and a V20b reflash and everything else and... nothing helped :(

Is it a hardware fault?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] JoinTheRealms:
looks like a hardware fault to me, but it could be something pretty simple. It sounds like your saying the mic died also? this would narrow the issue down if so.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ben36:
Did you have headphones plugged in before the issue?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] UsernameWasTaken:
Yes, the mic died, too, because when called, the person on the other end gets no sound whatsoever from my part. It's the same the other way around, which is strange since the mic and ear speaker are on the opposite sides of the phone. What takes out both of them + the main speaker?

I recorded a film with camera while a moderate music played in the room, but there's nothing but crackling.

Yes, maybe 3 hours before I noticed the problem the first time. I listened to music while outside.

If you're aiming at the phone thinks it has earphones always connected, it's not that. The phone clearly registers when they are plugged in and when they aren't by displaying, or not, the earphones icon in the notifbar.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Tcm9669:
Sounds like a weired issue to me. Once it happened, did you reboot the phone after this isue occured?

If I remember correctly, my old phone (not this one) had exactly same issue, I think rebooting and clearing cache and stuff (not sure if factory reset) fixed the issue. Worth a shot before going to fix the hardware
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ben36:
It's happened to me many times on my last Sony phone. Just keep jamming the headphones in and out and it should clear, the phone still thinks they're plugged in
[LG Optimus 4X HD] JoinTheRealms:
Heres the LG 4x service manual if your interested, https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_oeOAvJTvExc3RiQnN0NGQtanc/edit?usp=sharing
[LG Optimus 4X HD] UsernameWasTaken:
Yes, a few times. Factory reset and V20b reflash, too (It was on official 4.1.2 anyway), and wiped all the partitions from boot menu.

As I stated in my previous post, phone detects the headphones the normal way when they are plugged in and displays the headphones icon in notification bar, and removes it when I pull them out. Furthermore, music players pause/stop playing the moment the phones are unplugged.

Thanks, I'll have a look, but I'm not really sure what I can or should do.

The thing is, the phone is under a year old and has warranty, so I elect not to open it by myself... yet. Just don't want to leave it at the shop where it'll most certainly spend at least 10 days before anyone even looks at it (because of Easter and International Workers' Day). I'm also baffled by the fact that the ear speaker on top of the phone doesn't work. If it were just the bottom part, I would've gotten a replacement and switched it myself (one part holds both), but it's obviously something more complicated than that and I don't dare to discover what on my own.

In any case, I'll see what I can do about the problem after the holidays and I'll keep you apprised of the outcome.

Is there a preferred root method for the Verizon Galaxy Note 3 that will not trip Knox? I'm new to the root/dev scene, but I would like to root my device for mobile hotspot (I find that apps like FoxFi just don't work well). Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Vroot superuser app??

So I ended up having to go the Vroot method to root because Kingo wasn't working. The root was successful, and I have SafeStrap installed. The Vroot software installed another app that I can't seem to remove (all in Chinese characters), and it posts notifications every time I download something. I think it's some kind of superuser app, but I'd like to remove it in favor of one I can read. any thoughts on how to remove the app?
[Samsung Gear Fit] audunp:
Hello!

I read today that Strava Running/Cycling app now supports Gear Fit, and today they have released an update that fixes some problems with Gear Fit.

Has anyone tried Strava and Gear Fit together? You need a premium subscription to get heart rate working, and I'm concidering a premium subscription if anyone can confirm that heart rate is recorded when using Strava.

Thank you for answers!

https://strava.zendesk.com/entries/32420234-Samsung-Gear-Fit-has-a-Stava-option-in-App-Connect

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.strava
[Samsung Gear Fit] aooga:
On my fit there is nothing about Strava at all. I wish though.

EDIT: I see it now, but I can't get the app to connect with it.
[Samsung Gear Fit] audunp:
I think the app connects automatic if you check the option in app connection section. But you have to have a premium subscription to register the heart rate - as far as I have understood.
[Samsung Gear Fit] rajuha:
It works! Even with the free version.Nice!

You can start stop via the Fit. Great potential.

Hope now for runtastic and others.

Fantastic gadget.
[Samsung Gear Fit] ctan6611:
I can get it to work with free version of strava but cannot get the heart rate, do you able to get heart rate on free version of strava?

I am considering get the premium version if anyone confirm it is able to get heart rate from gear fit.

Thanks

Siong
[Samsung Gear Fit] TheFox37:
Indeed it works with free version of strava, without HR monitoring. You can start / stop new session from the fit, and see several details (speed, distance...)

Same question here : anyone knows whether HR monitoring works with the premium version?
[Samsung Gear Fit] graskaas:
also on gear 2?

Is this only possible with gear fit or also with Gear 2 (neo)?

I can't find any strava option in my gear manager for gear 2 neo.
[Samsung Gear Fit] ScottXe:
It looks Strava is similar with Gear Fit Manager. Why do we need to bother one more app?
[Samsung Gear Fit] ctan6611:
Strava has a lot more feature than S Health. Especially social network where you can compete with friend on segments.
[Samsung Gear Fit] ScottXe:
Thanks for your response. Let me see if it fits to me.
[Samsung Gear Fit] ctan6611:
Just received response back from Strava Support that Strava not able to read HR data in GearFIT SDK at the moment :(, even on Strava Premium. Hope Samsung will open it up soon on the GearFIT SDK.

Below is the response I received:

"

Hello,

Sorry about that. Currently, the GearFIT SDK does not allow us to read HR data, but maybe it will in the future. Please accept my sincere apologies and I hope you have a wonderful day.

Cheers,

[Samsung Gear Fit] borinque:
I work for Strava and was part of the Gear Fit & Gear2 implementation. In our next Play release the Fit support is a little cleaner, a couple bugs fixed, etc... We did the best we could in a limited amount of time. Anyhow, if there are any other questions or comments, I'm happy to answer the best I can.

With regards to the internal HR sensor, I'd suggest checking out this review http://www.dcrainmaker.com/2014/04/pinnacle-samsungs-activity.html

also...

Not quite advertised yet but the new Gear devices also support really real time segments. Right now the Apps & Apps+ Pebble do audio announcements at 0%, 50% & 100%. The Gear watches give you updates as soon as your device knows 0-100% w/ your time against your PR. We did this in Glass too. (Disclaimer: Starred segments & premium users only)
[Samsung Gear Fit] Lukeenho:
Thanks for the explanation.

Btw. have you asked Samsung about the accesibility of HR sensor data ?

It´s really weird if they allow it on Gear 2 for 3rd party apps, but not on Gear Fit .....
[Samsung Gear Fit] THEMikeUK:
I'm using a gear fit with strava, it's great getting the real time segment performance.

Star the segments you're interested in for best results.

Took a bunch of time off my PRs as a result.

Write up on http://hillsangels.cc
[Samsung Gear Fit] borinque:
Yeah, I think in time access will come for the Fit. Gear2 just had a little head start in terms of dev from what I can tell.
[Samsung Gear Fit] THEMikeUK:
Fit was clearly rushed out when it wasn't ready in order to get out with the Gear 2 and S5.
[Samsung Gear Fit] zack89:
Installed Strava on my Samsung Device. It also shows up in the app-connection on my fit. But how to start a new session directly from my fit? Or do i have to carry my phone with me all the time while running and start the session from my phone?
[Samsung Gear Fit] mpogr:
The review you referred to includes this:

However, this is not true, as Gear 2 owner I can tell Strava app on Gear 2 doesn't provide access to HR data from the watch (you can only use some sensors supported by the phone app itself). Care to comment?
[Samsung Gear Fit] borinque:
That's true, we don't support HR values from the Gear 2 at the moment. When I wrote that our Gear2 app did, but by the time the app got out of QA into the store it was disabled*. SDK access wise to HR sensor though. Gear2 yes, Gear Fit no.

*would be easy to enable with a tiny bit of exploring.
[Samsung Gear Fit] mpogr:
That's OK mate, HR sensor on Gear 2 is a piece of crap anyway.The reason why I don't use Strava is because is doesn't support the kind of chest-strapped BT LE HRM I have (right now it supports only Orion or something like this). Until it does, I'll stick to MapMyRun or Runtastic.
[Samsung Gear Fit] borinque:
Actually we do, just being a little cautious since BLE on Android is a bit of a pain.

This is the version set to be released any day now w/BLE HR support

https://rink.hockeyapp.net/apps/4aa8962445455f3059222d2aea49c800

This is the version where we are working out the kinks with BLE power meters & cadence sensors

https://rink.hockeyapp.net/apps/dbbeadd6c63647932675c38d41247606
[Samsung Gear Fit] mpogr:
Wow, thanks, I'll definitely give it a try. Hope you know what you're doing publishing this on public forums though...
[Samsung Gear Fit] borinque:
That's what they are for, to help us test stuff before going on Play. The links are on reddit, twitter, etc... The more people the better!

btw, for the Labs build any feedback you have on BLE would be awesome. There is a monster thread where we have been compiling it.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Kensai:
I'm rooted only. I tried transferring files to both the internal memory and sd card and nothing was working. I'm wondering if it's the write protection in kk that's doing this? Also I have power saver Mode on, does that affect it? I did turn it off but still didn't work. I had USB debugging checked and the notification shows mtp. Is there something I'm missing?

I don't want to s-off, will exposed give me a solution for this? I haven't played w it but wonder if there's a solution there.

Cheeers
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Sevinex:
Just to verify, you have the HTC Sync Manager installed on your PC correct? I would suggest you reinstall the Sync Manager, just to ensure that your problems are not stemming from a botched install.

The write protections implemented in Kit Kat only apply to apps accessing the external SD card in specific write scenarios, not you accessing your M8's internal memory via computer. They still allow for apps to write to the external SD card IF ALLOWED IN THE ORIGINAL APP PERMISSIONS (such as for package specific directories), though, like in the case of file managers, you will no longer be able to modify/create/delete the contents of your external SD card. You could try installing the Xposed Framework with this module, but in your case, I doubt they will be of any help.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Kensai:
Thanks for the reply. I'll try to reinstall my htc sync manager. Hopefully that'll do the trick.

As for the xposed part, it took me forever but I finally got it to work... Makes things easier for me to backup w tb instead of constantly transferring from internal to ext.
