[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Frezi Evan:
it's not supported my phone. sorry..
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Need framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk to decompile SystemUI.apk
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Hegab:
Here is my framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk .... and thanks so much Silesh.Nair
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Attached. Backup before you try this. You need to add the entry to build.prop for it to work properly after you replace SystemUI.apk
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Hegab:
not working .. "System UI has stopped" :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
I'll take a look tonight.

Very useful guide!

By seeing this im thinking that init.d support which kills the apps in bg and makes the rom laggy and redraws.

[Google Chromecast] Ja_som:
Hello,

from yesterday I have Chromecast and I have one question.

My internet provider streams also TV. I can watch it on Android with MXplayer and on PC with VLC. Tv is streamed e.g. with address udp://@239.255.0.30:5000

Can I somehow stream it to Chromecast from my tablet?

Thank you

BUMP
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Native screen casting to Chromecast is here!

The list of supported devices is short, but there is [EXPERIMENTAL] Enable Mirroring from any device to enable it for unsupported devices (note that many devices/ROMs will not work - there are likely legitimate reasons the official list is short).

If you can't do native mirroring, you can try mirror4cast though when I tried it, it was more like watching a slideshow than a video.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Also VLC has stated that they will support the CCast in some future release....

So that maybe another option once they get it up and running.
[Google Chromecast] Ja_som:
Yes, I tried this, it is one of the solutions.

But my tablet has ratio 16:10 and TV is 16:9, so video is not in fullscreen is adapted to the height and quality is not so good.

It will be really cool if VLC or MX Player will support CC.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Carlyle_f:
Hi, I own a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini and I'm on the verge of buying a tablet.

I really want a Nexus 7 3G but I don't wanna just jump into it blindly so I'd really like to know how the experience is for you, the owners of this device.

Development: I really like messing with Roms, rooting and so forth but the only problem is, I've only ever done this on Sammy devices. Is it really that much different to Samsung and Odin?

General usage: do you take your tablet with you when you a lot? Watch movies? What's the quality like? Is it possible to make calls from the 3G version? Battery life?

Gaming: how is the gameplay of games like Real Racing 3 with the RR3 GFX app and MC4?

I'm sorry, this probably doesn't belong here, or in any other section I suppose but I really want a tab and this will be my first. And I didn't wanna get something and regret it, like the s3 mini? So, forgive me folks.

I'm planing on getting the 2013 version if it makes any difference.

Thanks[emoji16]
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain Sweatpants:
If your planning on getting a 2013 version then you need the nexus 7 2013 forum for a review but speaking of nexus devices generally they are very developer friendly every device has an unlockable bootloader. They are very hard (not impossible) to brick. Flashing ROMs and kernels is done through CWM or TWRP. I don't know what the 2013 version is like but the 2012 is a very good device and the spec of the 2013 version is better.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Carlyle_f:
Thanks, I didn't see there was a 2013 forum. My bad. Anyway, helpful nonetheless. "They are very hard (not impossible) to brick", this is very good.
[General Questions and Answers] daprospecta:
I have a kindle fire but I figured this was a general question. It charges just fine but the battery reading stays at 0%. Is there a way I can manipulate the reading to always say 100%? I am rooted and I figured maybe I had to change a file in the system folder. TIA.
[Galaxy Note II General] jshalala:
As the title states I bought a rooted VERIZON Note 2 off of Swappa. Phone works fine, there are just some quirks that bother me (camera not connecting unless I restart, etc).

I want to return it to factory configuration. Currently the Android version is 4.4.2 and the ParanoidAndroid version is 4.0-BETA.

I was planning to download the stock ROM so the phone is exactly like it was from Verizon. I need to know exactly what programs and drivers I need to download to my computer first however and what the best sites are to use. A couple online forums and links lead me to download Odin but I also ended up installing a couple other programs also (search engines, etc) that caused my computer to go crazy. I restored it back to a later date to remove anything installed and am ready to try again.

I just need GOOD links that give me exactly what I need. I don't want any spam, stupid search engines, additional programs, etc installed.

I also need to know what drivers I need to install and where I can safely download those.

Once I have the supporting programs I think I can easily restore my phone.

Thanks in advance!

Anyone got a 'fix' to remove animation sound during boot?

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RevelationOmega:
Go to System root/ system/media/audio/ui/BST and notice there is Poweron and Poweroff.ogg files, rename those with .bak.

For example, PowerOn.ogg -> PowerOn.ogg.bak

Also, look if youd like through all available sounds and disable same way if you dont want as well.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaptainRandom:
I changed the 'system/media/audio/ui/BST', that didn't get it,

but you led me down the correct general path...

The directory for the power on at the 'Spark' boot is...

'system/media/audio/ui/SPR'

there is the PowerOn.ogg which control the boot 'spark' sound.

For those who need a bit of how to...

rooted with TWRP (unfamiliar with other recoveries, but should be similar)

reboot into TWRP

Mount

check 'System' box

back to TWRP main

Advanced

File Manager

follow folder path to 'system/media/audio/ui/SPR'

press 'PowerOn.ogg'

select 'rename'

add '.bak' to make 'PowerOn.ogg.bak'

Swipe to Confirm

back out to TWRP main and reboot system

Hi, I live in the US, and I bought a XDA EXEC from england less than a month. However, this device is just too fragile, the screen has crack, and the battery charging port broke,too. I wonder if I can claim another phone or not? Please assist me if anybody knows what to do. I will be appretiate!
[General Topics] AlanJC:
If you send it back to England, then yes, they will cover it if you can prove the damage was caused by normal use, but it will be your responsibility to pay return shipping.

You must be subjecting it to some serious abuse to have that amount of damage though, so I am unsure they will cover it. I know 5 people with these, and apart from some scuff marks, I don't see how you can crack it, or break sockets unless you drop it onto hard surfaces, and don't take care when plugging things in.
[General Topics] Nachogy:
yes,about the touch screen...it crack by itself, I also don't know why? I just put it in my pocket, when I take it out, it has a long crack across the screen. Is it because my pocket is too tight? About the charging port, yes, when I was charging my EXEC, my dogs run through the wires and hook it, so the device drom to the floor,about 40cm height. Eventhough there is carpet on the floor, the charging port still broke...

In my case, do you think that I am still able to claim warranty?

Thanks for your reply
[General Topics] jaceuk:
yer sounds like your pocket was too taut(ditch the leather chaps lol),

well you have to treat them as you wud a laptop not as you wud a cheap nokia

warranty well thats covers there faults,so youd be hard pressed to claim imo on those damages

maybe take out an insurance then claim?

or your home insurerance

either way its a pain in the ass mate,if it was me id post it to a mate and insured

use a pic with no damage for prior sending then get your pal to post it back insured and you claim the damage was done in transit maybe
[General Topics] Nachogy:
hmm...claim for insurance..? That is a good idea...but I don't think that I can buy any insurance here....Thanks for your advice anyway :D
[General Topics] jaceuk:
i meant as you have no insurance cover on the device try using postal insurance,

mail it somewere and claim the damage was done in transit,claiming on postal insurance
[General Topics] Nachogy:
hahaha,you are just so great and smart!!!! How smart is the idea! I will try!
[General Topics] jaceuk:
worked for me mate

post it from your work to your home,with insurance

get a pic of a similar phone on superb condtion and then a pic of your broken one upon arrival

claim it was done dsuring transit and claim

say it was left at work or a mates house and hence they had to post it to you.

i have a uk tmob exec in silver,if thats the same colour as yours id happlit take and email pics for a before posting picture

[Xperia Z2 General] justcurious31:
Anyone think the even the Z1 has as good as if not better camera than the S5?

Think the Z2 will be much better than the S5.

Phonearena talk a load of crap though, last year they said the Z1 was much better than the S4 and recently they did another comparison saying the S4 was better than the Z1?

Yesterday they did a comparison involving the Z1 and S5 and said the Z1 was better indoors and detail was equal but the S5 was better in lowlight and at night? I highly doubt that.

This a proper review from Anandtech was are very reliable anandtech.com/show/7903/samsung-galaxy-s-5-review/2 this shows that the Z1 has a better camera than the S5.

Stuff say the Z2 is better than the S5 as does Wired, today trusted reviews seemed to think the S5 was better in quite a few shots? but they were using superior auto in lowlight on the Z2 so of course thats gonna make the S5 look better?

Cnet review yesterday cnet.com/uk/products/sony-xperia-z2/ shows that in all but one pic the Z2 is better than the S5.

What do you guys think? I personally think the Z1 can at least match or better the new S5 and that's before the Z2 destroys the S5.

Apologies for not being able to post full links as I don't have 10 posts yet.
[Xperia Z2 General] Lolento:
Looking at both reviews, I think you're correct.

Z1 is better than S5 in terms of camera capture and in turn, Z2 "should" be better than Z1.

S5 is getting hosed in low light captures which is where you will get the best bang for your buck. At decent lighting, I wouldn't call any marginal differences a compelling reason for a purchase decision.
[Xperia Z2 General] ASAB1594:
i am rly disappointed with s5 indoor shots

but in bright light ,,, i can say the s5 is the winner
[Xperia Z2 General] progosu:
yeah, a clear winner. z2 pictures show lack of detials and are extremely noisy, really bad camera for daily usage.
[Xperia Z2 General] Raggi01:
All the reviews have been praising the z2 camera, not sure where you guys are getting that its poor.
[Xperia Z2 General] gavinfabl:
S5 is the best camera except low light. There is a software update that will improve this but not eliminate issue.

M8 is best if you arent into cropping.

Z2 is good in bright light, not so hot otherwise. But not as good as the S5. The Z2 has the potential to be top, but Sony need more optimistation which could happen.
[Xperia Z2 General] stargate1000:
REALLY?!?! I had the s5 and the z2 is by far the better camera. I really didn't like the over sharpened look. Colour and exposure are way better on the z2.

The s5 has a lot of features crammed into the software..of which most are pretty cack. The software is also laggy. But I suppose picture quality is subjective but to me the z2 takes the better picture overall...and more often than not for me indoor shots are more important as even if the s5 was supposedly better outdoors it is marginal... The z2 is consistent across the board!!!

But just my two pence worth.
[Xperia Z2 General] Raggi01:
Sorry but m8 having best camera if no cropping? It overexposes colors in bright light and is grainy!
[Xperia Z2 General] gavinfabl:
No it doesn't. I've used it.
[Xperia Z2 General] Raggi01:
First picture the M8 is the first one, found on the top left and Z2 is the last one, bottom right. Second picture is m8. Third is Z2. I dont know about you my friend, but the m8 overexposes alot and looks very grainy

Also the Z2 has the best image stabilization.

[Xperia Z2 General] Da Iceman:
Slightly disappointed

I for one am quite disappointed with the Z2. At least from all the reviews. I will probably still get it but was expecting more from its camera.

Most reviews praise it but then it seems their photos are contradicting. There just seems to be WAY too much post processing or noise or something. not noise in the general low light sense but really annoying weird black strips and otherwise pastel color look.

I figured, well the Z2 should have a better camera with their "Sony camera tech and lens" phone compared to Samsung's S5.

But from these images, that seems not to be the case and also contradicts with the reviewers saying that the Z2 is sharper or has more detail...

Im really hoping that maybe with a custom rom, or kernel with the hacked camera parameters or code that this would be fixed.

I saw the Z1 section having better camera mods but have not had any personal experience with them.

Or maybe a camera app like fv-5 can take the raw images. I don't know.

These pictures were taken from a couple review sites and zoomed in. other sites were pretty similar in results.

I don't care too much for color of pictures taken, that can always be fixed. A destroyed details cant be fixed..

Trees

S5 - trees with flowers

Z2 - looks more like a painting with green with white spots for trees..

Grass

S5 - normal grass

Z2 - coleslaw???

Crane

S5 - more detail

Z2 - less visible branches and crane parts etc.

Wall

S5 - smooth looking

Z2 - more blurred sure, but not smooth, black strips everywhere

Clearly less detail in Z2.

Hope someone can maybe shed some light on this. These reviews are really confusing and disappointing when compared to the S5.

So if this is whats its like then I have to disagree with many here. The Z2 camera is worse than the S5, and there for there is no way the Z1 is better either.

Please prove me wrong.
[Xperia Z2 General] le_lutin:
To be honest I haven't seen any reviews/comparisons that say that the Z2 is sharper (than the s5). Where are these reviews and do they back it up with pics?
[Xperia Z2 General] KevinB88:
I didn't see those reviews too. Everytime i read z2 is less sharp than others. But pls remember that all these tests were made with automatic mode 8mp. With manual mode and 20 mp z2 is equal or better than s5. I would like to see a test with manual mode on every device.

Gesendet von meinem D6503 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z2 General] NaimC:
As someone who has been using the Z2 the last few days, I don't think this is accurate. The reality is, one mode isn't sharper than the other on the Z2. Sometimes auto is sharper, sometimes manual is sharper, generally auto seems to be sharper overall. In manual mode, unless it's placebo, from my testing the "Pet" scene option seems to yield the sharpest results compared to other modes in manual, but we're talking by a fraction.

I would say based on what I've seen, whilst the Z2 can be sharper than the S5 in shots, it's generally only on rarer occasion. By in large the S5 is sharper and more detailed in most shots comparatively. But I think that's largely down to some in-house sharpening that's added to the S5 with internal processing. You could always add some sharpness to your Z2 manually in Photoshop or whatever, though I doubt it would get rid of some of the smear that sometimes appears in Z2 shots.

Personally I think the S5 has the better camera overall, with more detail, sharpness and better white balance accuracy overall. Some of the modes work better too, like beauty mode for example. It also has more megapixels for use with scene modes (Z2 drops down to 8mp for this). But the Z2 does have it's own benefits, for example I think it's background de-focus works better, and add to that the camera is more wide angle (better for landscape and group shots), the fill flash option is awesome (flash use without glaring over exposed faces), and lastly, it seems to have just a touch more bokeh, which can make shots look a bit more DSLR like when viewed normally.

I'll do some more proper comparisons before reaching a final conclusion, and will also try and post some comparison shots on these forums if I can.
[Xperia Z2 General] KevinB88:
I'm coming from s3 so it doesn't matter to me if s5 is better but z2 is much better than s3. And as smartphone camera no-one should complain about it. I think dedicate camera button is an advantage over s5 too.

[Xperia Z2 General] zodiac100:
I have the z2 and to put it simply, it's got the best camera on any Android smartphone. Most sites even those that hate Sony still give the win to the z2 because it's that awesome. Obviously superior auto would never produce the best images but in the z2 it does a good job unlike previous Sony devices.

Do you actually have the z2 I wonder to be posting such comments. I've only done comparisons against the iPhone 5s, S4, Z, z1, and note 3 and it beats all of them hands down especially at 8mp. If Basil over at btekt recons the z2's camera is better than the s5 then I'll take his word for it. He is one of the most honest reviewers out there.

Let's face it, no reviewer is biased towards Sony. If you think the z2's camera is ****, good luck finding a better one. Pretty sure you don't have one.
[Xperia Z2 General] Da Iceman:
I'll take back the sharper, but details they do mention.

Either way, they seem to praise the camera so much, but it feels like a let down in comparison.

Plus many calling it the best android camera phone.

Those pictures were from the review and they were at full megapixels. 20mp - Z2 and 16mp - S5

I didn't choose any that were that were 8mp vs 16mp or any that were off angle as that would be very unfair.

I just cropped into them to give examples of the details of each.

Im just hoping this is maybe a software thing.
