Hi

Just received my MDA Vario ii and am wondering if I have to bother upgrading the AS version that I have to the later versions (i.e. to 4.1). Can anyone advise please?

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Moskus:
Yes, you have to upgrade. I don't think WM5 will work with lower than version 4.0...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MDACompact:
Thanks very much - got it sorted now.

Ok so I am not even sure what the build number is, it seems to be missing from the list (see the SS's). But I think it is the same as the baseband? MJ7. I am on Hyper 15 and would like to upgrade but am completely lost, there are way to many posts about root this version and that version and upgrade and downgrade and I don't even remember what threads i looked at or what all I did to get rooted in the first place. And now I see there is this brand new root method if your already on KK. Would it be easier to load up the stock from safestrap then upgrade and re-root?

Can anyone give me a step by step?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
Load phone info app from play store. Will give you all pertinent info. Also several threads out there that has I info including a stickie in general section that you need to read and bookmark.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] craigviar:
Ok I have found info on going from mk2 or nc2 to nc5. But I can't find anything about mj7. Can I Odin mk2 over top of mj7? Is that what I *should* do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
That's exactly what I did so when I did surges method for going to NC5 I still retained the mk2 bootloader in case I want to go back to 4.3 based ROMs. I did full wipe mk2 odin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rnh:
Don't upgrade. Big mistake - little benefit and a lot of problems people are reporting. Many of the top developers are recommending staying on 4.3 and using a 4.4 rooted stock rom in safestrap if you absolutely wand 4.4

Yeah I really like Hyperdrive and want to stay with it. So...

Delete rom slot

Boot into stock

Odin to mk2

Re-root/safestrap

Install new Hyper 16.1

???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
look at surges method for upgrade/downgrade that installs a rooted deoxed NC5 rom as part of the process...first...then to install hyperdrive just do what you normally would do with flashing a rom in safestrap making proper wipes and all

3.5mm Klick Click Button & USB OTG

Since I almost never use 3.5 port, this additional button nicely fits on my Nexus 5.

To control this little device, need to use KlicK. By using Tasker and Secure Settings I got functional second power button. However, I've no idea how to get exact power button, cause in my case I cannot press one to wake display and press again to turn it off.

It possible to use 1, 2, 3 click action and program them to any installed app.

Also, I got a nice small black USB OTG.

Battery draws just a little bit more by 7 hours sleep I spent 4% and usually for the same without it, drawing is about 3.5 hours per 1%.

Unfortunately, I found that in Skype sound is dispersing while this button is connected. :(

p.s. BTW, would be great to get the same idea for microusb, cause I almost do not use it too.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] daniel_loft:
It would be a lot harder to get the same functionality over the USB port as it is not hard wired for this kind of things.

For extra buttons I'd recommend you Dimple or something similar.

Have a nice day!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MrKaon:
The one you got is the cheap version of real one. Probably will end up with bugs and unsupported app.

My wife owns a xiaomi phone, she is Chinese, and I copied the Mikey app off of it. Then I did some digging and found a English version of the Mikey app at the this site:

Wondering if anyone is willing to test it.....

As the site requires a username and pass to download, here is the latest English version of the Mikey app

[Nexus 5 Accessories] frigidazzi:
How exactly did you get this working with the klick app? I have one, but there's no shortcut or tasker option I see on there.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] x111:
It's very easy, while you made an action in tasker, you just need make an app via tasker, install it and direct those app for klick.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] x111:
New update of Chinese app "klick" and now Skype as normal without interruption.

so far a nice button,

not sure yet how correctly make a wake up app for in.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rayiskon:
my version is 0.977 , is there a newer one ?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] x111:
no, it's just me updated on it cause I didn't use my button till Skype was incompatible with it. :o

Apparently doesn't work well off custom roms...

works great off the shelf with another xiaomi phone i had...and samsung.. hmmm.

bah, 1.72 only.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] x111:
thanks for sharing.

also, found that if you just select "home" in klick app, it works like a power button when screen off and device is locked, that so cool.

no need anymore tricks with tasker.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rayiskon:
that's been one of my profiles since the first day

1 click - home (power on)

2 clicks - starts endomondo (i cycle a lot)

3 clicks - starts camera

long click - quick settings
[Nexus 5 Accessories] peachpuff:
The "available on lock screen" option has a bit of a security issue, if you have a pattern lock and start the camera with the app you're able to view previous pics. Normally they're locked out if you have a pin/pattern lock.

Other than that this thing works great
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Suminderji:
Just wanted to say was on the Mahdi rom and was getting a google voice to text message so decided to try android L. Klick works much better on L then it did on that rom.

1 - home

2 - camera

long - flashlight

Works well (though the double click you have to time it a bit)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] superbeast_87:
AT&T I337. I have been having problems for the last few days with in call audio. The phone makes a call then it will make the little beep when the call is connected but I can't hear them and they can't hear me. The speakers and the microphone work on everything else as I have tested them. I tried using the headphone/microphone that came with the phone, not working with those either. The only way I can hear somebody during a call is to use a bluetooth headset. I was running |ROM|★GOLDENEYE★|►XXUGNE8◄|Xposed|►34◄|6.14.14 when this started. I did search and tried everything that was suggested in multiple threads but nothing has helped. I flashed back to stock, still didnt help, did a factory reset. Nothing is working. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Edit, are you sure you have an i337m? That's not what your firmware is showing

Yes after i started having in call audio problems I used odin to go back to stock. I was on MDB firmware but after I Odin'd back to stock AT&T pushed the MF3 update to my phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
From what you're telling me of say you have an i337 and not an i337m. It makes a difference on what I tell you to do next
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] superbeast_87:
You're right, my mistake, I337 not the I337m.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
You're on mf3 firmware now so safestrap is the only recovery you can use. No twrp or cwm anymore. If I was in your shoes I'd up date to nb1 firmware. There is a new easy easy to root it called towelroot. The Odin file to update can be found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=50912149

Lett me know if you have questions
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] superbeast_87:
If I go NB1 then Safestrap is also the recovery used?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] superbeast_87:
Just in case anyone else runs into this problem, my situation was fixed. I called AT&T and we went through the usual scripted troubleshooting, the rep turned it over to their network engineers. The engineers apparently found a bad antenna causing an area outage, it took them 3 days but they did get it fixed and my phone is functioning properly again.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Stangpwr71:
So my question is based on my experience. I have flashed atleast 4 custom roms from different devs that I have liked enough to consider my daily driver.

My issue is that about 3 to 4 months in I start having force closes, and random reboots and lockups. And so decide to switch to s different devs rom. I am starting to wonder if there is more to it. Then the rom itself. Should I wipe my dalvik or do factory resets more often?

This does not seem to be a real common issue on bone stock roms.

I just may, I was running your 4.2 and then at a later date your 4.3 previously.

I am almost thinking of just going with a stock rom so this isnt a issue in the future.

Is it recommended to wipe cache and dalvic every so often?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
Just go to my thread and read a little. You will be happy with what you see.

Reboots and freezes can be caused by a few things. Most of the time it's the kernel. Wiping cache could help. I don't have reboots or freezes myself.

Windows 8.1; but had same problem with Windows 7 computer.

USB device not recognized

The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned. And Windows does not recognize it.

Windows has stopped this device because it has reported

problems. (Code 43) A request for the USB device descriptor failed

Tried using WUGS Toolkit to install drivers, not happening.

The phone charges via usb port with no problems

On top of that, daughter wiped phone, there are no ROMS, or usable backups.

I can get into TWRP Recovery, but it can recover what isn't there. Tried factory

reset, still nothing. No matter what I do, I get No OS Installed! Are you

sure you wish to reboot? If I do reboot, just get GOOGLE screen with lock

symbol.

Without being able to get a computer to see the phone, I can't get a ROM to

load.

Maybe change USB port with cable? But I don't want to do that if the problem

is software related.

Any ideas what I can do???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isajoo:
I just went through something similar like this last week, what a pain in the A$$.

Not entirely sure if this will fix your issue, but hopefully it'll help some how.

I ended up having to manually install galaxy nexus driver so I could sideload a ROM since I formatted my internal storage to test out this new F2FS BS... Anyways.

LOL

First you'll need to download and unzip "universal naked driver 0.72" Google it.

Now, without your GN connected open device manager and THEN when you plug in your GN to your PC you should see it pop up in the portable devices section.

AND also under other devices there should be "galaxy nexus" right click on it and click "update driver software"

Click "browse my computer for driver software" select the unzipped universal naked driver folder, click next and click "install this driver software anyway"

Now it should show "Google galaxy nexus ADB interface" in device manager under Samsung Android Phone.

Reboot GN into bootloader

OR

recovery (if you have a ADB supported recovery eg. TWRP 2.7.0.0, and enter ADB mode)

Now there are 2 ways to do flash an Android OS, some may find 1 easier then the other:

download/install "Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit aka NRT v1.8.3.sfx"

Google it.

Run NRT and it'll instruct and guide you through the steps required and whatever is needed to continue, eg. Select device, download TWRP 2.7.0.0...ETC.

Or

Download/install ADB setup 1.3

Google it.

I found this method a little more simpler.

Open the folder you have your ROM/gapps zip files saved on your PC, hold down shift key and right click on the folder, click "Open command window here"

Now in the command window type in "adb sideload XXXXX.zip"

XXXXX = COPY/PASTE the ROM file name. Eg. 20140615PA443RC2.zip

Press enter and now it'll flash the ROM onto your GN.

Repeat the same steps for gapps/kernel zip files.

Reboot your GN and enjoy.

BTW

I'm still loving running ParanoidAndroid Jellybean 4.1.2.

Its like pain in the A** to install phone/adb drivers in win8/8.1 :mad:

I had a similar issue with my gNex a while ago but i had the drivers installed in my pc so it wasn't that difficult.

Why don't you try to install this toolkit http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/development/gnex-toolkit-v11-1-0-drivers-backup-t1392310

When you run the toolkit, it may ask you to select your device, build number etc and also about installing device drivers.

Install the drivers through it and then connect the device in recovery (twrp) mode.

it should detect it and then you can push files/roms to sdcard (internalMemory) using adb push or the built in options in the toolkit.

then flash the rom and you're done :)

and i recommend using win7 or xp or vista for doing this because the driver installation in win8/8.1 is a bit difficult compared with other previous windows versions but there is still a way to install drivers in win8/8.1 its just a lengthy process :rolleyes:

All the best :good:

OK, downloaded universal naked driver 0.72, connected gnex, but it only shows up under Universal Serial Bus controllers as Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed), not under Portable Devices, and will not allow install of of universal naked drivers, & yes I have toggled to allow win 8.1 to installed unsigned drivers. Since I cannot get phone to turn on to full android, it is not recognized. Any other suggestions?

OK, tried this too, but it only shows up under Universal Serial Bus controllers as Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed), not under Portable Devices, tried 1st way by installing drivers, then using PDA, cannot complete PDA driver installation because it can't see the phone. & yes I have toggled to allow win 8.1 to installed unsigned drivers. Since I cannot get phone to turn on to full android, it is not recognized. Any other suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KingWickedd:
You have to go to the device manager, double click on the "unknown usb..."

a dialog box may appear and then click on the 'driver' tab.

There u may find update/install driver button.

click on it and another window may open.

then select browse my computer for driver software and go to the respective folder where the drivers are.

then click next and it may install the drivers.

if you have installed the toolkit then you may find a folder in the toolkit's installation folder which has drivers in it.go through it if you want :good:

Just curious, how long have users kept their battery before being replaced? I replaced my initial one after about 14 months (was covered under a radio shack warranty) and at the time it was dying extrememly fast (3 hour life, though the ROM at the time may have had something to do with it). I'm on my second battery currently and it is approaching 12 months. I think my warranty expires next month and covers one more battery replacement but so far, the battery has been pretty good. So how long do you usually keep your battery before replacing it?

If you use RegEdit to add a key called "WHOS" under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft key in the registry, connect your Windows Mobile 5.0 device and go to Windows Update, a new 7.0MB update will be available that enables Windows Mobile Device Center. This should let you do the update.
