I am not sure I completely follow that question or questions. If you are looking for Screen Mirroring options, then there are several apps that offer such a functionality. Primarily Miracast comes to mind. As always the phone does support DLNA if your TV supports.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] allendj81:
What app would work if we cannot connect using the wireless allsharecast dongle? I cannot connect to itbecause im rooted on 4.3 tw. What works?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] osito20:
disconnects right away... I only thing I want to do is mirror of my phone to the TV screen...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] daggorlad:
I just wanted to mention that this should be in the Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting section. I rooted my phone with custom ROM and Recovery and only had to download the AllshareCast Dongle S/W update to get my phone to work with the smartdock and MHL adapter. But doing a quick search of "allshare" on the play store brings up multiple alternatives for the allshare cast app which might work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] daggorlad:
I was just doing some reading on random posts and found this which may help. I had done this before updating and didn't realize that it had anything to do with fixing the problem.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Yes that is correct. Particularly if you are using Samsung's own Screen Mirroring.

Is it safe to run the updates for the security policies after root? or should I continue dismissing the notifications? If it's not safe to do so, is there a way to now disable those notifications after root?

I used titanium backup and just froze it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LoSt180:
I never disabled it, took the updates, and was able to root this morning. Don't think it affects root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] PS4AndroidHacker:
I'm thinking overall security policies may be a good thing to update, just not the OTA's.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] PS4AndroidHacker:
I've heard conflicting stories. Right now I'm trying to freeze the security policies app just so I don't receive updates but can't figure out how to. Anybody chime in to help out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
Thanks for the replies, guys.

I didn't understand how to either, but in Titanium Backup, go under the Backup/Restore tab, and scroll down to "Security policy updates". Tap that and then you'll be given the option to freeze it. You need the pro version of Titanium, though...which is unfortunate. I'm not sure how much I'll actually use Titanium so spending $6 on it just for this is a bit of a reach.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cjranucci:
Look at it this way. You can use Titanium Pro on multiple devices. I think that I had it for my first Galaxy S2, used it for S3, S4, now S5. Definitely got $6 out of it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] jdock:
Android Tuner (including free) can freeze apps too. I found this out last year after buying TiBu.

Actually, I'm finding that Titanium is actually unable to freeze apps on my S5. When I try any, it sits for a while and a toast message says it's frozen, but it's not. Looking at logcat I suspect it may be because I switched to the ART runtime. Android tuner is working though.

I have looked at those links, and even tried the bt upgrade that was posted in one of them, but I'm still not getting anywhere. The only change I got is that when I'm not using the phone, all the sound is muted and I can't control the volume anymore.

Has anyone out there upgraded a Himalaya in any way resulting in the ability to output audio to a stereo bluetooth headset?

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tobi@s:
Hello guys,

I was in Crete last week and on the last day I had the dumb idea to take the device into the sea. (I knew it was water-proof but I didn't know that I should not put it into seawater)......

Note: I never kept it underwater for more than a minute and only below the water surface and not lower. All closures were closed.

After ~10 minutes in the sea it started to behave strange: Display went black and it showed no reaction to any Actions. I took it out of the sea immediately and cleaned it with freshwater. After 5 more minutes it started to vibrate for around a minute. This happened a few times when I tried to turn it on again. Finally I was able to turn it back on but after a short time it auto-shutdown for this reason: "Emergency shutdown. Phone is to hot." (something like that at least). Strange. It was not in the sun and did not feel hot. Whenever I tried to reboot it it turned of during the sony boot animation. After that I opened all closures and removed the SIM Card and the microSD Card. They both had small water drops on it :S I kept the closures open and shaked it really hard a few times to make sure theres no water inside the phone.

3 hours later without touching it a single time I reinserted the cards and was able to turn it back on but it shut down itself very soon for a new reason: "SIM Card has been removed. Rebooting.." Well.. I did not remove the SIM Card. After a reboot it shut down again for the first shutdown reason (to avoid overheating).

Info: During all that reboots etc I was able to enter cwm recovery all the time.

Another few hours later I decieded to restore a CWM backup I created a few days before. I turned it on afterwards and it still "crashed" during the blue Sony boot animation.

Another few hours later I was finally able to start it. Everything seemed to work ok. But then the haptic feedback issues started: Sometimes it started to vibrate for no reason, sometimes it did not vibrate when it should have and finally it's not vibrating anymore. Not even during boot.

I aready found this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2641694 where op described that it worked after shaking the phone. For me it's not working after shaking the phone.

Long text short question: Any chance to send the device back to amazon to get a new one? (I guess they can't detect that I put it into salty seawater?)

Edit: Forgot to mention that it had water fog inside the camera lens and the LED for a few hours...

Thanks for reading :D
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurikapooh:
if you are covered with warranty please do, it happened to me also (but this time i blame sony for lack of quality of service).. it happened when mine is still new i tried to wash it in the faucet then few hours later, haptic or vibrate doesn't work anymore, too bad i didn't have official warranty that's stupid on my part, but what do you know it supposed to be waterproof phone
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tobi@s:
Why didn't/don't you have official warranty? Country related?

It still doesn't work so I'm going to send it back. Ordered it on 31. January and had the Flash bleed bug also, if they accespt it and send me a new device this bug will be fixed also I guesss :D

Edit: Amazon wont take it, I have to contact Sony. Lets see what happens

Dear XDA Developers,

I saw official thread on Acer Liquid E3 phone, but did not find a solution for me.

I have bought this phne back in March 2014 from Western European distribution. It does have Polish language suppoer from android/keyboard side but the OS itself does not have Polish language support.

Acer staff is slow and promissed the software ROM to be uploaded on technical website each month with no success.

I saw a thread on google that Eastern European phones have Polish language suppoer (Czech republic ones).

Could someone having a phone with OS supporting Polish Language upload a flashable dump?

Thank you in advance.
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
I do not see any Port Development as yet according to this thread for your Device. [Official] Acer Liquid E3 / E380 / ALE3

Language support is a painstaking process. So it would have to be added to any Custom Rom developed for your device. That is if the Manufacturer does not do so. You may help contribute to the effort as well. Due to lack of a forum for your device, that thread might be your best bet to keep track of development.

Eagerly waiting for a reply, as I'm in the same boat. I bought three Touchpads way back when, one new at the original fire sale, and two as refurbished models a year later.

Turned it off before I left. Now, it won't wake. Currently I have it on a 0.5A charger hoping the trickle charge will do the trick...
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anggrian:
Greetings fellow Infinity owners! I am a new owner of this amazing tablet ever since I bought it from my friend for $250 this evening. I don't know if it's a good deal but as for now I'm pretty happy with it, and looking forward to be even more happier when I install custom ROM in it.

I have been a loyal user of CyanogenMod ROMs, but considering this device is unique (mainly because of its dock), I would like to know whether CM ROMs are compatible to use with the dock. Or maybe there's even better ROM out there for this tablet? As for now I don't have the dock but I'm thinking of buying it next month.

Please share your thoughts and suggestions (if any)!
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
The only rom fully compatible with the dock is CROMi-X 5.4 since it's based on the Asus stock rom.

The CM based roms like CM11 and CROMBi-KK work with most dock functions, but there are bugs, e.g.

If you use the Volume buttons on the dock, the tablet's power button stops working.

If you close the lid of the tablet/dock combo the screen does not turn off as it would with CROMi-X.

Development on CROmi-X is stuck since Asus did not release new firmware after JB 4.2.1.

CM and CROMbi-KK are at JB 4.4.3
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anggrian:
If you had to pick one of those 3, what would be the most stable in terms of performance?

I flashed mine to the latest snapshot version of CM11 last night. Though it's newer, it's not necessarily faster than the stock Asus 4.2.1 firmware, I can say the performance has been very bad. So I went on and try the nightly version, which did not change anything in the big picture: it's still sluggish.

I haven't tried CROMi or CROMbi, but assuming CROMbi is based on CM11, is it safe to say that it's just as sluggish as CM11 itself?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Usually there is a trade-off between stable and fast.

Details? How do you measure performance?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anggrian:
With that consideration, which is the fastest and most pleasant to use?

I measure performance by how smooth the OS navigation is.

Which in this case, is very poor. First off, swiping pages in Google Now Launcher is far from smooth, especially swiping the most left to Google Now interface, sometimes it freezes on the way. Capacitive buttons (back, home, recent apps) take 1-3 seconds to react, which is also the same amount of delay needed to open Settings. Lastly, even pulling notification bar isn't always smooth.

If you're interested, I could shoot a quick video to show how painful the navigation is. In a way I also wonder if this level of performance is normal in TF700T.

Anyway, as been told by other threads, I wiped dalvik cache and cache while in CWM recovery, issue remains.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
The TF700T has never been the fastest or smoothest of its generation, but it should not be painful to use.

Try installing CROM(b)i - it has a lot of performance tweaks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Whenever you switch roms, no matter if they share the same base, wiping of cache and dalvik is not enough. You have to clean install, meaning at least a factory wipe in recovery, if you really want to experience the potential (or lack of thereof) of that rom.

I do not experience the lag you describe on the latest CROMBi-KK install and I did not on CROMi-X either. But then - I don't even install Google Now and other "social" cr*** - so YMMV.

CROMBi-KK is the fastest and smoothest rom I have run on this tablet, but it does have the dock bugs I mentioned earlier.

_that is right - there's always a trade off between reliability and speed.

Try the CROMi roms (either X or KK) and install them with fsync off and I bet most of your complaints will be gone. The biggest performance boost for this tablet (with it's build-in slow memory) is to run it with fsync off or data2sd on a fast microSD. If you want full dock compatability it's CROMi-X, if you want KitKat goodness it's CROMBi-KK.

Have fun testing!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anggrian:
Informative! Will try CROMi-X tonight!

Oh 1 more thing, I am currently in CWM recovery, do I need to switch to TWRP recovery to install CROMi or CWM does just well?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
As long as it is CWM 6.0.4.6. or later (and you don't want to try the f2fs file system on /data) you're ok.

---------- Post added at 12:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 AM ----------[/SIZE

Edit: I do run the rom with internal data formatted to f2fs. It does make a difference.... For f2fs you need TWRP 2.7.1.1
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anggrian:
I had no idea what f2fs is so I went on and googled it. According to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2681775, it can cause data loss on the exchange of performance gain.

Based on your experience on f2fs, what do you have to say about that?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
I can confirm the performance gain (subjectively - hard to really measure it except with benchmarks. And I don't believe in those...) and I haven't had any data loss - yet :D

I treat any data on a mobile device as being just one step away from going down the drain - it happens often enough. If you want to try anything experimental, a solid backup/sync routine is a must in my book.

f2fs and also fsync off both fall into that category. I have run my tablets with fsync off for more than a year without any problem, but I have less experience with f2fs.

You just gotta be careful. I wouldn't try, let's say, ART runtime AND flash the new Asus apps package on CROMBi-KK with /data formatted to f2fs - risks grow exponentially if you combine them.....

Hello,

It seems that I have a problem with Xperia z2 since the last system update.

When I try to connect to any wifi network (work, home, even friend's place where it usually works flawlessly) I either got stuck at the step "getting IP address" or when it manages to connect it's like I don't have any connection so I have to disable wifi and use mobile data to be able to access the Internet.

I read here that I should erase everything in the folder /data/misc/dhcp but I can't find this folder on my phone and if I type "rm /data/misc/dhcp/*" into a terminal emulator I got an error message saying permission denied.

So can I do?

Just got my new Orange M3100 (Tytn) and I'm having problems with trying to forward incoming calls to another number. I have to divert and cancel divert often during the the working day and could do with a short cut to the settings call forwarding page. I don't seem to be able to make one... Could anyone advise...

Also trying to do similar with Bluetooth settings as I swap my BTheadset between phones just as frequently. I have found a link on this site to a utility to do that but not had chance to try it yet...

Can I just make a shortcut to that as well ??

Apart from that it appears a excellent device, running Tomtom etc without any problems....

Thanks in advance Phil
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Lurker0:
All the ways I tried to create such a shortcut do not work, because it requires an USSD "call". I asked WM5NewMenu author to implement USSD handling, will see...

For now the best solution I've found is to assigh speed dial keys in the dialer to USSD sequencies to divert and cancel diverts. It's OK for a while because speed dial keys can be easily accessed with one hand only (green phone button, then arrow left or down).

EDIT: In case you don't know USSD sequences... You'd better consult your operator to be sure. For me:

Divert all calls: **21*number_to_divert_to#

Cancel divert of all calls: ##21#

There are also codes for conditional diverting, of course.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] GavinN:
Hi Phil,

What Lurker0 has mentioned is a good idea. You can save those strings as a number in a contact and maybe assign a speed dial or voice tag to that contact for speed? I guess one contact to enable and another to disable. The commands Lurker0 mentions are standard over all networks.

I'm not sure if there are ways to send AT commands to the modem in the TyTN (M3100) but it is another possible way to do it if someone knows how, if not then it might be useful info to someone else.

The AT command you need to send is AT+CCFC=1,1,<number>,128,1,,, this is the number in local format (no +44) like 07968xxxxxx to enable and AT+CCFC=1,0 to disable.

Gavin.

Speed Dial is also at "green phone button" then arrow left, or arrow down, or wheel down. So one hand operation is possible.
