Hello XDA-Dev's,

I have two huge idea's but no experience and I'm looking for a place to start. I wish i had the capital to just hire someone to do the coding but that isn't an option so I'm running with the idea of learning how to code and make the app and web interface myself.

I will keep this post for my development on the way, as almost an interactive diary of my business. All help towards my goal will be greatly appreciated and I hope to develop some strong relationships with members of the forum along the way.

So there is my introduction, now i'll give a brief for my challenge.

First of all i need to learn to build an app in android/iphone, I'll also need web interface, If you think facebook, your on the right lines. So here is my first question, what program and language should I use to create an app similar to facebook or linkedin? A comprehensive list of suggestions would be appreciated. Also good sources to learn coding? I'm sure there is a thread on it so i'll get hunting but likewise feel free to make suggestions.

The next question would be what type of web hosting will i need, what should i use to build the web interface, and any idea's on the kind of bankroll I will need for something with a few million users?

Last of all, how long do you all think this will take to achieve alone?

Thoughts, opinions and introductions would be hugely welcomed. This is going to take me years, but I'd be a fool if I didn't try and make the most of an obvious opportunity.

Regards,

Si

p.s if your a mod and there is a more suitable place for this post, please move it for me, it's my first post here so I'm alien to the layout right now.
[General Questions and Answers] Othosama:
Hi,

From my personnal experience, i have two massive impressions about the coding universe, first it's a very pleasent world if you're interested by computer or programms mechanics. Learning how to structure an idea how to put a shape on something moreless abstract is an unique experience. But on the other hand this will drive you crazy sometimes, coding is a very strict language where you'll have to learn all of the basics first, but i can assure you that when you've learned the C or the Java or even Pascals basics, you become able to understand any other programm in any other language, the expressions or the designation objects are the only thing that'll change, it's like playing at a ps3 when used to xbox, almost ...

So coding is a very enjoyable experience but it takes time and will to master it, although huge programmes like facebook aren't based on just one language but it uses several ones like html/css for the structure of the website but this one is a kind of basic for every developper even if you're not interested by web design, also c# and c++ are the new platforms for algebra, then you have php to handle the servers of such a huge and massive network. There are so many other knowledge recquired to lead such a huge project that you can't do it alone. Despite that, if you take a good start in coding you'll be able to run other type of application on android for instance you'll need java or on pc my advise would be to start with C it's really easy at the beginig, in fact the only limitation is your imagination.

Good luck for your project

Can I use the same SIM that I had in my Wizard on the Tytn? Will GPRS still work on the Tytn?

thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] marka2k:
It should if you configure the connections properly, I am using an old ATT Blue SIM that I have had for close to 5 years with no problems.

[LG Optimus G Pro] shrilzer:
Hello guys I was trying to root my Lg G pro E980 for AT&T. In my haste and eagerness to attain root on my device, I failed to notice some of the warnings in the OP. This is what I used to try to obtain root: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2362657 As you can see, it states that it does not work on AT&T 10p. After trying (and failing). My phone would no longer detect my sim card! I tried factory resetting with no luck. I also tried taking the sim card out and restarting without the sim and then reboot with the sim. This did not work either. Searching for networks yielded a network error. :( If it matters, my phone is unlocked and using a T mobile sim. I was working perfectly before the failed root attempt and now I get no service connectivity at all! Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
[LG Optimus G Pro] shrilzer:
Update: I flashed the phone to an earlier stock version of the AT&T rom using this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2302660 and it still does not seem to read my T-mobile sim or an AT&T sim either! Please, any help at all is appreciated!
[LG Optimus G Pro] jhb019:
Have you still got an IMEI number? If you haven't that is why your phone cannot read the sim. If you don't have an IMEI, it is because your EFS has been corrupted but that shouldn't happen when rooting. If you have an EFS backup flash that, otherwise you have to take it to a service centre as there is no way to write an IMEI number onto your phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pfemciek:
Hi guys,

is it possible to use signal from ANT+ device in app that uses only bluetooth smart api? I mean emulate (translate?) or sth? (Im a real noob)

I have ANT+ HRM and would like to use it with micoach app (adidas sucks and isnt interested in adding ANT+ api to its app).
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRant:
No. ANT+ and Bluetooth Smart are different wireless protocols, using different API's and different stacks (think WiFi vs. Bluetooth).

To allow an existing app that uses Bluetooth Smart to use an ANT+ device, you would have to replace the Bluetooth stack on your phone with one where you have changed it (not changing the API) so it uses the ANT+ stack and translates between ANT+ and Bluetooth packets and adds in info for Bluetooth advertising. Not a trivial task.

Camera problem: red/blue/purple noise in low light photos

Same story from M7 continues with M8. Taking pictures in low light has red/blue/purple noise/tint.

Here is video sample:

HTC ONE M8 Camera Issue- Pink/Red Tint like M7: http://youtu.be/b2sdyGi7-NA

Here's screenshot

You can clearly see on video and picture heat shielding starts degrading, thus parts of the heat transfers to sensor.

Mine M8 produced in May 2014, serial number HT45.

Sensor is Omnivision OV4688 4M.

You can check sensor via file manager, no root is required.

For example, in Solid explorer:

Choose System Root - Sys - android_camera - sensor - open as - Text file - SE TextEditor.

Please report if you anyone has such issue.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] artemis129:
My S3 took one of those unfortunate, unexpected dips in a porcelain pool. It was buzzing and crackling before I could get the battery out. Let it dry out and everything was working except for the external speaker. No ringtones, speakerphone, music, etc. So I ordered a replacement for the external speaker module, dissected my phone and cleaned the couple spots that showed traces of water, and put it back together... and the speaker still doesn't work. So assuming there is nothing wrong with the replacement, there is probably nothing wrong with the original... and now I have no clue what to do.

I'm not generally real adventurous with my phone. It's not modded; still running the original OS that came on it from Sprint, but it's not under any kind of warranty or service agreement (and the indicator is now purple anyway.)

The internal speaker works and it vibrates. Microphone and camera are okay. Any suggestions? Please?? "I didn't answer my phone because I didn't hear it ring" is already getting to cause me problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
There's a good chance that when your device took a swim something else may have been damaged. Did you make sure to check that all the connections were carefully placed, before connecting the new speaker ? Also you said that there were signs of water still in the device when you opened it. How did you dry the device ? Did you use Rice ? Or descant ? Most times just air drying the device does not do the job.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] artemis129:
I did just air dry it. When I opened it up there was no actual water remaining, but there was a white residue around what I am guessing is the internal speaker. I used rubbing alcohol on that to remove it. All the ribbon cables are securely in place and while I'm not adept at circuit boards I don't see anything on the motherboard that would appear to be loose or damaged. I can put it in rice if you think it would make any difference at this point.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
Yes. I would still suggest putting it in rice for a few days. Even at this point. Electronics and water don't mix well. Especially smartphones. I've seen devices still have some moisture trapped in them, even after three days of Air Drying. Although the rice may not solve the issue. It's worth a try. If that doesn't resolve anything. ODIN the Stock Tar. If that still doesn't resolve the issue, well then it's time to take it in, and have a repair center look at it.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciribic:
Your IMEI is fine, and you shoud delete it from the post as soon as you see this. I also got network problems after updating to 4.4.2 , my phone loses network completely from time to time and signal strength is weak compared to what it was on 4.3. But my problem is not WCDMA/GSM/auto specific, no matter what I select it's always the same.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Have you tried a different SIM in your Note 3? Pretty much 99,9% of these issues are caused by an older sim in combination with a newer phone.

If that doesn't make a difference, do a factory reset or reflash your firmware.

All,

I wanted to share with everyone that the TWRP recovery that was made for the wifi note pro SM-P900 "Exynos only" works on the Tab Pro 12.2.

Original thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2706982

I downloaded the tar file and flashed with Odin 3.07

Here is a picture.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] nickster1:
Very nice! So it works just fine? It makes sense just cause its the same everything inside. Did you use cf auto root to root? I'm going to be getting my 12.2 in about a week!
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] maximus96:
worked for me using cf auto root and twrp for note pro.

the problem is not much custom roms to pick from for the 12.2
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Burley1:
True, I am pretty okay with the stock rom. I wish someone would just debloated stock.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Burley1:
BTW I am on the pro plus rom and its stable, but I wasn't able to get the GigaWatts Pro to work.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] scottricketts:
This is my first go around with a Samsung tablet, does Odin take care of unlocking the bootloader as well? Or can I just use Towelroot to root and then run the unlock commands and flash this via adb?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Burley1:
These don't have locked bootloader's like HTC products. Just do the autoroot and your pretty much done. Just update super su and flash away

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] TabLife:
No, that won't work for t321 (3g) version. Actually, it will erase your stock recovery and install an incompatible one so that if you factory reset you get stuck in "Cannot boot normally" mode.

knox?

My pro should arrive in the mail tomorrow. So forgive me if this has been asked, but I thought these tabs were locked down by knox? Can knox coexist with root and custom boot?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Burley1:
Knox and root can coexist but the super su will and you if you would like it disabled, click yes and your done.

Its just a locked down program/area within the software.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] sourbear:
It may install but is it actually working correctly? In that original thread, they are having many issues with TWRP and cache mounting and partitions. I don't want to do this on my Tab Pro 12.2 and be stuck in boot loops and having to find and reflash this, that and the other.

Well? Anyone?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Burley1:

I had some Problems when attempting to wipe data within twrp. had a bunch of cache errors and couldn't get it to boot. Had to release p900 and wipe data in Stock recovery. Didn't go back for 2nds after that
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Burley1:
Always worked fine for me. Only thing I noticed was it took a long time. the other thing. Don't do the advanced wipe, it's not needed.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] csmoore88:
That is what happened to me. When I first got the sm t900 I saw multiple threads claiming the note TWRP was compatible. It flashed, it booted. When I flashed a file it was OK until I had to wipe cache.......brick. Had to search out factory files and flash to stock in Odin. Word of caution...use the "v2wifixx" from TWRP and rock on. You can get the TWRP play store app and install from inside android. Hope this helps.

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] midimench:
I have the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 SM-T900. I used Odin 3.09 and installed the file openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.0-v2wifixx.img.tar and it went through 2 stages (Recovery and Reset), but never showed Pass. It rebooted after the write, and when I go into download mode, it's as if I haven't done anything. There's no TWRP app to go to in recovery mode. The tablet works perfect in every other way. Maybe I didn't use the right steps in Odin. I was sure a com port was displayed, and I found the file using the AB button. Is there something else I'm missing?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] midimench:
Does my SM-T900 have a locked bootloader

Trying to install TWRP (openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.0-v2wifixx.img.tar) on my SM-T900, but it's not working. Using Odin 3.09 and the process goes well, except I never see the word "pass" come up. Nothing gets installed and the tablet works fine. I'm not aware of this device even having a locked bootloader, so please enlighten me. On other devices I've owned there was a bootloader that needed to be unlocked with software very often provided by the manufacturer. Of course it always provided void warranty warning, and we never seemed to care. Does my SM-T900 come with a locked bootloader? I have no idea. On my Note 3, safestrap gives us a work around.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] csmoore88:
Probably drivers on the computer. I had a similar problem and updating and reinstalling drivers fixed it. Did you try to get the TWRP app and install from in android? It works well on many devices but I used Odin on my tab pro so I don't know if it will work.....hope this helps.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] midimench:
I downloaded and installed TWRP from Google play, and although as I installed recovery, I got the message the app had crashed, I was able to boot into TWRP. At this point I'm doing a complete backup, and will consider installing the latest CM tomorrow. Have you done a custom rom yet and did you need to wipe everything first?

I am an little concerned about this Hint at CF: "UNLOCK BOOTLOADERS - If you have locked bootloaders, flashing one of these will probably brick your device..."

What does this mean?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] GF Geek:
FYI, for those having issues getting TWRP to work with their Tab Pro 12.2 - here's some news you can use: bigbiff (who's been heading up the TWRP Q&A and Development Forums for the Samsung Tabs has just pushed out TWRP-2.8.6.1 tar, zip and img files for the Tab Pro 12.2 SM-T900 (v2wifixx).

I downloaded a copy from the TWRP website. I just got a SM-T900 a couple of weeks ago with the NK1 build. Successfully (and painfully) rooted it using CF-Auto-Root-v2wifi-v2wifixx-smt900.zip - Last night I downloaded the new TWRP-2.8.6.1 img file, installed using Flashify - made a Nandroid backup - located the backup on my internal SD (about 3.6 GB !!!)- and copied that over to my ExtSD card -- No problems at all with this latest TWRP revision.

HOWEVER, I have not yet installed a different ROM and then tested the RECOVERY mode of this latest TWRP that is WORKING . . .
