[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] centoo:
Hi all,

this is my first post in this awesome community :)

Maybe some guys here own a Sony SLT camera called 'Alpha 58' (or short a58) which is an incredible camara. For it's performance it has an incredible price tag and hence I own it. But there is one missing feature - the infrared sensor for controlling this piece of hightec remotely.

But fortunately there is a guy who developed an app called 'RCCDroid' which gave me new hope.

(please type it in google, the server prevents my post from external links)

This app uses the OTG USB interface, modern phones very often have. Except our beloved Nexus 4.

OK, now don't throw your hands up in horror: I've searched in the development threads of these brilliant OTG kernel patcher like Justvarshney and Ziddey. I've tried their kernels and brought OTG to live. Which actually means I brought it to live in case of mounting an USB stick.

Cause IT DOESN'T WORK WITH RCCDROID IN COMBINATION.

I have CM11 on my device, OTG works fine. But only a few kernels let the camera recognize my phone.

For now I have Francos r206 kernel flashed, which was patched from Justvarshney and then released just today.

I'm sure I have the right equipment. The y-cable, the external power..

And in the beginning it looks right.

I connect these stuff together. Switching the camera on starts RCCDROID automaticly. Also the cam (in PC remote mode) display says there is a remote control connected. However I can't give the camera signals. Touching the buttons stays inoperable. :confused:

Maybe I'm still using the wrong kernel?

Maybe I have an incompatible ROM?

Maybe..?!

The developer don't even gave me a respond. Sadly it's the only app which can do this. And however the app is quite new and feels beta like (the homepage as well) it's a really nice try to give a58 users a cool remote control.

Is there anybody out there who is experienced with this problem??

Greetings
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vic_singh:
hey centoo,

I discovered this app yesterday and completely fell in love with it. I got the A58 a few months ago and its an awesome deal for a DSLR(SLT). I was looking for a sutter control because my hands are very shaky and I like to take night shots.

After trying the free version for about 5 mins i deleted and downloaded the pro version for about $6.

There is 1 thing i dont like and its the fact that when using this app it only stores the pictures on my phone and not on the camera.

PS. im using CM11 with Nexus 5

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] GAPY427:
Where to buy an extra USB/Sync cable, and one that's longer that what came in the box?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Just about any MicroUSB cable will work. Available at a lot of places. Folks on XDA seem to like Monoprice.com. They have all manners of cables for very cheap (but still good quality), and a large selection of lengths.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] indymx:
Your mileage may vary though. I've found that cheaper USB cables don't charge my M8 like the cable that came with it.

Not sure why, but they just dont.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Hmm, interesting. I haven't actually tried to charge with a 3rd party cable yet, only used it to connect to PC for unlocking the bootloader and S-off (which worked fine). From past experience on other devices, its usually data that is the issue. Meaning charging will be fine, but data sync will not work (although it seems fairly uncommon, and the vast majority of 3rd party cables will work for both data and charging).

So it takes longer to charge using a 3rd party cable, but the OEM charger "block" or wall-wart?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] indymx:
I can't be 100% sure why it happened, but 2 cables from the same manufacturer did the same thing.

The odd thing was, they looked like they were charging. All indications were that they were connected and electrons flowed, but the battery level dropped while connected.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
That is odd. I just tried what I had around, and a Samsung cable, and 3rd party one (branded Boxwave, but probably a pretty generic retractable type) both seem to work just fine for charging when connected to the HTC charger "block".

YMMV, indeed. To answer the OP, there isn't a good way of knowing whether a 3rd party cable will work or not without trying it. A genuine HTC cable is the sure bet, but since the OP wants something longer, he will have to look elsewhere. And 3rd party cables are much cheaper, of course.

So I have the survivor case by griffin technology and it seems to block the sensor. Every time I need to make a call or answer a call I have to take the top portion off to answer or hang up the call. Is there an app to disable the sensron
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrzhadow:
Open your dialer and push menu and go to call settings. Disable turn off screen during calls. It will keep the screen on so you can make our hang up calls manually.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
Try darkening the area around the opening to the proximity sensor.

## Found this in android forums ##

Alister, what is the color(s) of your Otterbox? Mine is the grey/white, and I solved my prob, just like yours, by darkening the area just above the proximity sensor with a fine-tipped black Magic Marker pen. Additionally, you can get an app that tests all of your S4's sensors, including the proximity. Mine is called Z-Device test, and works great. Get back..

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
For reference to anyone else finding this thread, this will only work on TouchWiz roms. AOSP rom's typicaly don't have the option to disable the proximity sensor.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JessSayin:
I don't have that option in the settings of CM11. In my case I can't get the screen to come BACK ON during a call when I pull it from my face. So much for using the dialpad during an automated menu call..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrzhadow:
My apologies! I didn't realize you were using CM. Its been a long time since I used it so I'm no longer familiar with it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
You can cut out or drill the case where it overhangs the sensor.

Sent from your phone. You should be more careful where you leave that thing.

Now and then my Up or Down volume buttons won't function and I would have to restart the phone to get it to work again.

I would try taking the case off too to try but no avail.

I have dropped it a few times but it is usually on carpet about bed height and with a case always on. And it's not that high up either.

Just seeing if anyone else has this problem.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putney1477:
I have a strange situation here. My GPS will only read aloud when I am NOT connected to Bluetooth in my car. If I am connected to bluetooth while on the phone but not actually using the Bluetooth, using the handset to talk on the phone, the GPS voice comes through the earpiece on the phone. The GPS voice works fine when I'm not connected to Bluetooth in my car. Does anybody else have this problem? Any solutions? Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madhacker7:
Ditto!

I too had that problem. I recently was traveling for work and needed GPS in the rental car. I almost missed my exit because the nav voice wasn't working over the car's bluetooth connection. Calls worked fine but not the nav voice....
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putney1477:
ok good to know that I am not loosing my mind :)

I have no idea what is causing it tho.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilroy1stcav:
Under Bluetooth settings can you see if you are connected as phone and media or just phone? Every once in a while mine just connects as phone for some strange reason!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madhacker7:
You know what....It didn't occur to me to check that. Good call!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putney1477:
I will check this too! Was planning on checking it today but we took my husband's car all day, his doesn't have Bluetooth. But I will check that in the morning when I go to work! Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putney1477:
Both media and phone was checked off.....hmmmm....not sure why it doesn't work when connected to Bluetooth.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilroy1stcav:
Ok, today I tried my phone with two different Bluetooth devices to make sure I got music and GPS out at the same time and I did so i know the S5 is capable of it. So check to make sure your devices are actually are connected as phone and media when paired next time just to make sure.I know my Motorola roadster2 sometimes only connects as phone even though it is set up as both, I usually have to reboot both the phone and and my roadster to get it to connect as both fir what ever reason. I hope that helps, if not I am at a loss!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeefJerky9:
I tested this the other day, and it works fine for me. I am using a Kenwood DNX8120 head unit, and it is connected with the S5 with both the headset and media bluetooth profiles. Note that the head unit needs to be on the bluetooth input for me to hear it since it is using the media profile for the GPS voice. If it is on another input (i.e. tuner, CD), you won't hear the phone's GPS.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putney1477:
Still nothing. I cleared my cars system memory and repaired the phone. The weird thing is that it was working when I got the phone a few weeks ago. It worked for a week, then all of a sudden stopped.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bl^5:
A tad bit late, but here nonetheless

I know this is an old thread, but I wonder if you were listening to bluetooth audio or not. If you weren't listening to bluetooth audio on your car radio, then you wouldn't hear the voice navigation prompts. Unfortunately I don't believe voice navigation works like the phone.

The phone will mute any audio currently playing and automatically switch to the phone.

The nav audio works through bluetooth audio only. It doesn't mute anything so unless you are listening to bluetooth audio you won't hear the prompts (they are there, but you aren't listening to the source where they come through).

I think the solution as stated was to turn off Bluetooth media profile so it only comes out of your phone and leave on bluetooth call audio profile so it comes through the car.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putney1477:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sportwa72:
So I've been reading through lots of posts on the forum and over at Howard Forums about whether you can get the TyTN to use the UMTS network on Cingular.

Some people have said that your IMEI number has to be registered in your data account with Cingular otherwise you don't actually jump on their UMTS network (even though you see the "U" on your display).

Some people have said that you only need a 3G SIM card (which I have) and the same GPRS settings and that you will then be able to use UMTS.

I called Cingular Data Support yesterday and asked these questions, and whether you need to have the UMTS_AUTO_ATTACH_FEATURE item on your account to enable UMTS and he told me:

1. Your phone IMEI does in fact need to be in your data account setup, otherwise your phone doesn't actually use (or won't register to) the UMTS network.

2. If it isn't, you are just using the GSM network, even though your phone might be showing the "U".

He tried entering my IMEI number into my data account, but he said it comes up as "UNKNOWN." Normally he said that when you enter a valid IMEI number (from the 3G phone models they sell), it automatically adds several features to your data account that enable UMTS, such as the UMTS_AUTO_ATTACH_FEATURE item.

So.... that said, I'm still not 100% sure that I agree/belive this. The reason being is that when I'm downtown (I live in Seattle), or really most places in the city, I have the U indicator, and additionally my phone shows I'm on the "UMTS Cingular" network--I also have the same roaming indicator problem that people have discussed on other threads.

Also, when I run the speed test at dslreport.com, I get average speeds between 822 - 976Kbs on the speed test.

When I am at home, my phone switches to the "G" symbol and the network name changes back to "Cingular"--I live in a bit of a signal shadow. When I run the speed test, I only get speeds around 235 - 322Kbs.

So it would seem to me that when my phone shows the "U" symbol that I'm actually on UMTS due to the data speeds I'm getting, vs. the data speeds I'm getting while on the "G" symbol (GPRS).

Any ideas or thoughts?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sspooner:
Not true.

I have a TyTN on Cingular and most definitely am on the UMTS network.

I get HSDPA speeds when it shows "U" and EDGE speeds when it shows "G".

Cingular data support are feeding you a line. All you need is a 3G SIM.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] goestoeleven:
You got bad information. If you have the "U," you're on the UMTS network. Simple as that!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] 100thMonkey:
I was on UMTS today. I have a 3g SIM card, but I have just a GSM phone, SE Z520, registered with Cingular.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sleuth255:
EDGE isn't capable of speeds in excess of 400kb/sec. Your testing proves that you were running on the UMTS network. For final proof, try this:

Start a large data transfer rate test while on the UMTS network. Now, while the test is running, try calling your phone. Hopefully, you'll be able to see it ringing while the data transfer is still going.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jsamuels:
Also see the big U on the old AT&T network.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Beamen:
they told me the same thing, i went to atlanta last weekend and was on UMTS with my TyTN, and got speeds over 500kbit (i do have a 3g sim, they dont have my IMEI on record), so they were most definately wrong. Slingbox is great on 3g btw, hopefully they will turn up Miami soon :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] joedoe:
Do you have 3G SIM card with ATT&T? How did you get it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] eeter:
If you have a U it means you are on UMTS. Get the fieldtest utility from the wiki and use it

I just worked out what you meant and found your post on hotukdeals site. As that's a site for deal seekers and this is a site for phone dev, hope you don't mind if I keep the chat here. Despite an entire quote of 274 lines to divert me to a different forum, I couldn't find anything else in the message here. But over at HUKD you wrote:

Because Revolutionary requires it be either 1.49.007 or .008

Not sure what you mean - I'm trying to install KitKat.

So are you saying I can install a recovery with a locked bootloader?

As I said, nothing will install.

OK, I was just following the Cyanogenmod instructions.

On the phone that is working, this has not happened - it is still P and has not changed itself to U.

Hi Pacattack! Thanks for the reply - OK....

But the Revolutionary requirements say:

Revolutionary currently supports the following Android phones and HBOOT versions:

....

HTC EVO 3D GSM (shooteru) 1.49.0007, 1.49.0008

....​

But... here are the exact install requirements from the official thread

Required HBOOT : 1.49.xxxx

S-OFF

Radio/baseband : 11.77.3504.00P_11.25.3504.06_M get it from HERE

4ext recovery

If you have spontaneous reboots, check that you have the required radio version in BOOTLOADER not in SETTINGS -> ABOUT PHONE​

So are you saying that both the official Revolutionary and Cyanogenmod requirements are actually incorrect and I should ignore them?
[HTC EVO 3D] Pacattack:
It also say use 4ext recovery, but they dont say you MUST have the latest release.

Revolutionary requirements is for s-off, not for there recovery....

Official stock ics EU/GSM 11.77.3504.00P_11.25.3504.06_M or 11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M firmware/Radio works on UK phones, get it from Cools or mwakious ICS roms, better still, is to install one of these roms, so you get a rooted rom installed, plus to install 4ext update app, to get the latest 4ext touch version installed.

Why 4ext.. it install the roms kernel, while installing the rom.

did you try unlocking again from htcdev? with s-off locked/unlocked shouldn't be a problem but it never hurts to try :)

[HTC EVO 3D] digitaltoast:
Thanks for everyone's replies again...

But without the latest 4ext recovery, it gives the folowing error on KitKat ROMS:

But Revolutionary installs a recovery - without any recovery, how can I install a recovery when all zip files and other methods say

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

Cool! How do I get it on there?

HTCDEV trick still says "not allowed" now, even when I get a new unlock binary based on ident from the downgraded version.

Right now, I would be happy to reset everything back to how a stock HTC is with the ICS and 1.53 boot - but if PG86IMG files won't work and fastboot/adb mostly says "not allowed", how can I do this?

NOTE: At least I have S-OFF still! And also, the PC is definitely talking fine to the phone as I can perform most other ADB tasks, just not the ones that require pushing/installing stuff.

[HTC EVO 3D] Pacattack:
This is how I would do it :D

1.Just run the ruu.exe file on the windows pc

Follow instructions.

If the install works, you should have a default ICS with s-off.

2.installing 4ext recovery.

Download this image from here.. http://db.tt/1QYlMnp5

adb Command "......... fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Must be in fastboot mode ...

OR even better for flashing stuff, use android flasher from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=794638, be careful........

Once you have 4ext recovery, install via recovery, a root or a rooted rom

download 4EXT Recovery Updater app from http://4ext.net/

install via sdcard or adb command "......... install 4EXTRecoveryUpdater.apk"

run app and tap on update, it will find you model etc ... select the latest .. install :)

[HTC EVO 3D] digitaltoast:
Thanks - just tried it, it says:

Remember, I already have ICS with s-off, that's not the tricky bit. It's that something has relocked the bootloader, and I don't seem to

There's no point me running it if it's going to just install ICS over the top of my ICS, on the other hand, if it also unlocks my bootloader and allows me to install 4ext, then that's good, but I can't see any suggestion that it'll do this.

I'd like to know a bit more about what the RUU.exe app does if I leave it to run. Where can I find the docs for it?
[HTC EVO 3D] Pacattack:
ruu.exe is the full rom, including everything, this will wipe you phone clean, its made by HTC !!!!
