[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daveb21:
Hi all,

I've just recently purchased a JVC KW-NSW700 and to be honest am very underwhelmed by it. So I'm now in the market for an Android based unit :)

I've been reading through the threads on the HuiFei and the AN21-U and based on the awesome amount of info available on here and what looks like a solid list of updates being released regularly I'd almost decided on the AN21-U. But then I realised that in my car the 2 DIN slot is right at the bottom of the fascia and if the unit front face can't tilt then viewing and touching the screen is gonna be less than ideal.

Which brings me to my first question for anyone that has the AN21-U - does the front face tilt? All the pics I see online suggest it doesn't :(

I looked around and couldn't seem to find a 2-DIN Android unit that had a front face that tilted but I eventually came across a 1-DIN unit with a pop-up screen with adjustable tilt. Its an ES8300 from easyrising88 on ebay.

Its a combined WinCE 6.0 and Android 4.0.4 unit. Which brings me to a couple more questions:

1. What are the pros/cons to a pure Android unit vs a mixed unit? Will a mixed unit cause me any probs with Bluetooth, radio listening or having a fully functional Android OS on which I can load and use any Android app I want?

2. Anyone got or played with one of these units?

Any advice or thoughts anyone may have are welcomed. Also I remember from a few posts someones comment around returns and basically gambling the shipping cost that the unit is what you're after and if it ain't then just send it back and you're only out of pocket the shipping. Maybe I just take a punt! But after the JVC unit turned out to be a dud I'm a bit gun shy.

Excellent stuff from everyone on here - appreciate all the info and commentary it certainly has helped me to this point and thanks in advance for any advice forthcoming.

Cheers,

Dave

This is my first post on XDA.

I seem to have soft bricked my GP4.

I was running PAC-ROM CM10.0 (4.1.2) and trying to upgrade to CM11 (cm-11-20140323-UNOFFICIAL-ypg1). I loaded the ROM and gapps on the external SD card and used CWM 6.0.2.8 to make a backup, wipe cache, system, and data, and at that point I accidently rebooted so I forced shutdown, booted into recovery again, wiped again and installed the ROM.

For some reason , after the second install, the CM signup screen appeared. After I filled everything, I tried to reboot but I can't get to either the android or recovery. Either attempt (boot or boot to recovery)results in the same thing: a screen saying "Samsung" followed by one saying "Galaxy S Cyanogenmod" followed by the screen saying "Samsung" again - where it stays until I pull the battery. I'm not sure what I did wrong. I've successfully installed KK ROMs on my GP5 and Galaxy Nexus.

I can get to the Download screen.

My backup isn't much use unless I can get to recovery.

Any suggestions for my next move?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
If you can't get into recovery then you are going to have to flash back to stock. What happens when try to get into CWM?. If it shows the Samsung logo 3 times in a row then that is normal and you just have to wait till it boots. Otherwise follow these instructions http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=51762484. If you have a non North american device then download its heimdall file
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] jcmcg1:
Flashing Back to Stock

When I try to get into CWM, I get the same result as when trying to boot. It won't go into CWM.

The link above doesn't mention needing to repartition. Is the pit file needed to return to stock with Heimdall Suite 1.1.1?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
No you don't need to repartition and a pit file is not needed. If you have a us galaxy player ( has capacitive home button) then I provided all the files you need. Just follow the instructions.

Booting Again

Thanks for the help. I'm running 2.3.5 and can start over. The only minor glitches were needing to download the Samsung USB driver and disabling Windows 8's driver signature protection.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
You still had to download the samsung driver even when using zandig? That is pretty odd lol. Also backup make sure you make a backup of your efs just in case you want to stay with the stock firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] jcmcg1:
Finally Understand Problem

I reinstalled KK being careful to follow all directions, but the result was another soft brick. The next time i figured it out. I had been using the directions under:" If coming from a Pre-LVM build: (ALL builds before 28/12 as well as CM10.1, CM10.2)", since I was coming from 10.1.

I finally used the directions for: "If Coming from an LVM Build" and it worked.

Sorry for the late reply. I used the directions in the following "How-to-Geek" article to disable driver signature verification. I don't believe that the change is permanent.

Using this thread because it's pretty relevant to what I need... All the files for the US version are in the link, and I've downloaded and followed the driver instructions, but when I press the flash button, it throws and error and shows the PC and Kies screen on the player.

Am I doing something wrong?

Hello everyone,

I am working on a new Music Player app that organizes music files based on folders. It also displays the artwork from the music file; but, if there is none, it looks for an image file inside the folder, where the music file resides, and displays it.

There is different ways to start playing music. You can click on the following items to start playing music:

* The title of the current folder list

* The folder name

* Click on the folder icon to display the music files in it and click on a music filename to start playing

There is an X on the action bar that serves to stop playing and close the app.

There are 6 different play modes supported, this resides to the left of the X button.

The music player supports Skip Forward and Backwards by swiping left or right.

The rewind and fast-forward buttons on the bottom of the screen cover the area that includes the current and total playtime, respectively.

Next, I'll be working on adding time intervals for the RWD and FF buttons that are customizable.

This is early alpha stage; so, there is a lot to get done, bare with me.

In the Alpha phase, adding functionality is priority. Once we get to the Beta phase, we'll focus more on cosmetics and your input will be needed to move that phase forward to the release phase.

For now, enjoy the app, as I add more features to it.

Go to the link below, join the g+ community, become a tester, and get the app

[Samsung Gear 2] AspenMan:
Just FYI, triple pressing the home button doesn't do anything... There is no send help message option with the Gear 2.
[Samsung Gear 2] Breach:
I have the Gear 2, and there is. You just need to enable it in your Gear Manager.

Start Gear Manager, Settings > Send help message > Turn it on (at the top right) > Choose if you want it to send a photo too, or just the message.

Next, go back. Click "Manage Primary contacts", add at least one contact.

Now when you triple press the Home key, it will send a distress message (photo optional) with a link that contains your Long/Lat. It will send an updated message regularly until you cancel the distress message on your cellphone.
[Samsung Gear 2] AspenMan:
Hmm, There is no send help message option in my Gear Manager. There is also no manage contacts (that was there when I had the Gear 1 for like 2 days until I returned it). What version of gear manager are you using? I'm on 2.0.14041404

[Samsung Gear 2] AspenMan:
Here's a screenshot of what I have - Seems to be missing the safety assistance section. Weird... Bummer...
[Samsung Gear 2] Breach:
That is odd. I have the Gear 2.

I just checked my wife's Gear 2 Neo and she does not have that option either, yet the Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo manual state they do.
[Samsung Gear 2] audri5:
My Gear 2 does NOT have that option either. I wish it did and would love to know why yours does. We are running the same Gear manager . My watch is model #SM-R380 Software version R380XXU0BND8
[Samsung Gear 2] JimSmith94:
I don't have the watch yet, but the manual says not all phones support this feature:

Setting up emergency messages

Set the device to send a message to recipients in an emergency.

On the Settings screen, tap Send help message, and then drag the Send help message

switch to the right. Press the Power button three times to send an emergency message that

includes your current location.

Some mobile devices do not support this feature.

Setting up emergency contacts

You can preset contacts to send a message to in an emergency.

On the Settings screen, tap Manage Primary contacts → Create primary contact → Create

new contact or Select from contacts. You can create a new contact or select from the

contacts list.

Some mobile devices do not support this feature.

Maybe you should include the phone that you're not seeing this on.
[Samsung Gear 2] Breach:
I have the same model and version. I am glad its working on mine, but I'm curious why its not working on everyones. Are you using the Note 3 also? Maybe it had to do with the phone?
[Samsung Gear 2] Breach:
I did a little research and I think I know why some Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo watches have the Safety Assistance option and some don't, I think it's in the phone itself. My wife is running a stock T-mobile and hers does not have the Safety Assistance option in the Gear Manager, I have the same phone but I am running a different rom and I have the option.
[Samsung Gear 2] cryptiq:
FWIW, I contacted Samsung support today and was initially told the Safety Assistance feature wasn't available. When I pursued the issue and asked why it was listed in the online How To guides on Samsung's website, the rep said she checked with a supervisor and the feature is only available for the S5. Kind of disappointing since I have a Note 3....also this is a pretty poor customer experience since the feature is found in their how-to guides yet it doesn't say it's only available for certain phones. :(
[Samsung Gear 2] Breach:
Her response is incorrect. I have a Note 3 N900T (t-mobile) running the rom listed in my signature. The rom is a Note 3 N9005 (International version of the Note 3) and I have the Safety Assistance now.

Here is a stock International version...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKPlOJVhucc&t=3m41s

Now call the rep back and tell her to learn about the products that she represents :P

I'm sure a Dev could probably rip this out and make a patch to add it to any Note 3.

suggestion to add to the FAQ

Great FAQ - thank you.

Would you consider adding music to the faq. There are two ways to add music:

- Via the gear manager / my apps / music player / send tracks to gear, you can transfer music to the gear.

- Also you can plug the watch in to a computer using the cradle. The watch should appear as a device and you can transfer music to a music folder.

Thanks

Hi,

I've managed to mess up activesync on my PPC (XDA Exec latest ROM). Activesync was working fine until I installed memmaid and ran it and it's deleted/modified something to do with activesync on my PPC.

When I now try sync, a network connection is open on my pc as normal, then the activesync icon rotates for a while then says it cannot connect.

I have no firewall software running and I've tried different USB ports. The same thing happens at home and at work where I could always connect before. I'm using activesync 4.2 and the connection troubleshooter returns no errors. I've also tried deleting the partnerships and reinstalling activesync on the pc.

Any ideas anyone?? I'm at a loss, I really don't want to do a hard reset.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uchihakurtz:
The Question

Seeing how our device support multi-booting into several ROMs and a few weeks ago the HTC M8 came out. The M8 features an ultra battery saving mode by dumbing down the phone into only the essential function such as messaging and phone calls.

Is it possible to make a stripped-down version of AOSP/other custom ROM?

The ROM itself could only feature a few apps such as:

Messaging

Phone

Browser

Camera

Music Player

File Manager

Gallery

WiFi

Bluetooth

With the Location and Account Sync turned off also multi-tasking turned off (make only 1 app in background), this could save a lot of battery. Also since it won't need that much horse power to run the ROM, you can turn off a few cores to save battery even further. So if one day you're in need for a longer life battery but still want to use your phone, you can boot into this ROM.

The "Lite" ROM

So instead of waiting for someone to heavily strip down an Android ROM I tried the following:

Installed MultiROM

Add a new ROM

Flashed the ROM's zip file (Slimkat Build 4 Stable) without flashing the gapps afterward

Flashed Photosphere since I need it

Flashed a custom kernel (hellscore b44)

Booted into the "Lite" version of ROM and set things up.

Remove some apps that is not needed and added some apps that are needed

The result is the following, just a simple ROM with no widgets on the homescreen and only a few apps that do not have services running on background.

Spoiler content hidden.

Phone Settings:

Keep WiFi on during sleep = Always

WiFi Always Scanning = Off

Optimize WiFi = On

NFC = Off

Lock + Touch sound and vibration = Off

Runtime = ART

Background Process = Standard Limit (since it causes FC in Google Camera if you disabled background process)

All transtion effect = 0.5x to make it feel faster

Kernel Settings:

Min Core Online = 1

Max Core Online= 2

Cores boosted on touch = 2

Min Freq = 192 MHz

Max Freq = 1242 MHz

CPU Governor = intellidemand

GPU Governor = conservative

GPU Max Clock = 320 MHz

Sweep2Wake + Sweep2Sleep = On

The Test

Still coming
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr3quency:
(1)Developer Options ----> Background Process Limit (At most, 1 process)

(2) You can install a kernel(you obviously need custom recovery and root for that) Then you can set the Maximum and Minimum CPUs online. This can be achieved with ak latest kernel.

Sorry I couldn't answer the previous "demands", but those 2 can be achieved on a normal ROM.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uchihakurtz:
I know this can be done on normal ROMs, I used to turn off some cores with hellscore too but it ends up laggy but at least it charges faster -_-"

As for background process, it just kill the apps when it's on background, opening it again will start it up again which in opposite, decrease battery life if multi-tasking. Even if the limit is enabled, some services still runs, I tried sending Whatsapp and it still receives it thus service still running.

If devs can make like a S40/Java-like ROM and with our spec, it can last days on battery like the days of Nokia 3100. :laugh:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mashed_Potatoes:
A) Don't use apps. Only use vital apps like SMS and Phone? (Imagine that you have Ultra saving mode?)

B) Set CPU to 192mhz - 1350mhz and Intellidemand

C) Don't use a lot of 3G - Set wifi to turn off on lock

D) Undervolt

E) DONT PLAY GAMES

F) Underclock GPU to 320mhz

G) Greenify all apps except Clock and Launcher

This should easily give you 5 hours of screen on time or at least 2-3 days on one charge.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uchihakurtz:
Actually I flashed a new ROM (Slimkat) without flashing the gapps + hellscore b44 and added Hellscore Manager to tweak all the above, also in Developer Settings enabled "No Background Process". The size doesn't even reach 300mb. I haven't tested the battery life though. Anyone wanna try?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bamsbamx:
Hey, and why dont you try to take the zip file from a rom and manually remove its unnecessary apks???

Also, I suggest you to flash a kernel... I used faux kernel... Great battery :D

This thread could be interesting for those who leave home for some days

EDIT: You can install the stripped down version of that rom with MultiROM so you can have access to all functionalities again with only one reboot
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uchihakurtz:
Yeah, actually that's what I did. So I have two ROMs intalled, 1. a full Slimkat version installed with gapps and all my 100 apps and games, and 2. a simplified Slimkat version where gapps are no more and some apps removed + a few basic apps that I use daily such as Opera Mini, XDA Forum, Hellscore Manager, and Android Central App, also the new Google Camera for taking pictures. No chatting apps installed at all.

I'll test how long it last since tomorrow I'll be travelling.
