As Midnight_Rider Put It... In A Matter Of 6 Months... I Just Used My Jump Upgrade and Went From A HTC One M7 > Note 3 > iPhone 5s Gold (Worst Decision I Ever Made In The Handset Division... The IPad Is Cool But Not The Phone) and Now I Have The Nexus 5...

As Stated Before... Best Decision I Ever Made In The Mobile World In A While. I've Had the Nexus One & the Galaxy Nexus... Minus the Nexus S As I Wasn't On Sucky Sprint But Now That I Have the Nexus 5... I Can Clearly Admit That I'm Thrilled To Be Back To Pure Google, Unlocked, Unrestricted and On the Un-Carrier and the Nexus World.

I Said the Same Thing... As the Next Nexus Is Due By December and The G3 Is Right Around the Corner But Seriously... Its A No Brainer... I Wish the Best To You Young Padawon On Your Choices... Choose Wisely lol ?

[M.O.J.O. General] vwtazzman:
Is there another way to calibrate this thing or do I just have a $50 paper weight ?

The left stick on my C.T.R.L. recently went out of whack, it is always moving the pointer down unless I hold a bit of "up" on it.

I tried the calibration steps from the Mad Catz site and it will not work. ie: no flashing purple light. I tried it on my M.O.J.O. and my PC, same problem.

Thank You for any help.
[M.O.J.O. General] vwtazzman:
Soooo, paperweight then. Great!

:mad:
[M.O.J.O. General] christoph80:
Did you put in a support ticket with MadCatz? May be a defunct unit.
[M.O.J.O. General] vwtazzman:
Yup and it looks like the unit went bad. They will warranty it but why bother.:eek:

The sad thing is that this whole console has failed in one way or another.:(

I tried to pair my NYKO to it which pairs with every other android device I own and....will not pair, WTF?:confused:

And I am SO tired of seeing "not compatible with M.O.J.O." in the google store! :rolleyes:

I have a MK908 and MK802 that will work with everything.

What't the hell MadCatz?

I should have bought a Shield.

By by MOJO:(
[M.O.J.O. General] Mad Catz Rich:
Did you update to the latest firmware? Check the MOJO icon on your homescreen, go to the fifth step and get the 205-TS firmware as that will make a huge difference to the "not compatible" incidence rate.

We've had no issues pairing the Nyko or OUYA controller with MOJO though - are you correctly placing the Nyko pad into pairing mode?
[M.O.J.O. General] Ash180287:
Dunno if this is resolved but for future users having an issue

The re-calibrate process for the C.T.R.L.R is as follows

Make sure the C.T.R.L.R is paired and connected to a host

Press and hold A, B, X, Y, L1 and R1 for 3 seconds – the status LED will turn purple

Press the Back button once – the status LED will begin to flash

Move each stick and trigger through their full range of movement 4 times

Press the Start button once – the status LED will return to blue to show the pad is in normal operation

According to madcatz

Edit: Dunno if I even read the first post Jesus,

also stated this before in the correct thread but the update dramatically increased the incompatible message for me, hardly saw it before now its every other app and loads that used to be compatible ain't. Controller is much much better. Just now I've got the choise of laggy controller and loads of apps or brilliant controller and no apps. Lose lose
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
interesting instructions.. read more like a finishing move lol

Yeah, sucks google play is stuffed.. I tried going back to the previous firmware update but the rooting doesn't fix it :/
[M.O.J.O. General] chazsmash:
I am having the same issue with my Mac. Tried to recalibrate but its stuck at the bottom left of the screen.
[M.O.J.O. General] basketor:
I haven't used this gamepad in years, and wanted to use it, and realised I have that left stick issue too.

I tried the calibration stuff and that didn't help.

I upgraded the firmware, and it didn't help, plus the button mappings are broken now.

Also I tried to run mad catz software for that gamepad but it's not picking it up by blutooth, despite windows detecting the gamepad right.

So it's a paper weight that will end in some box or in the trash.

Hello all!

Please excuse the n00b questions! :)

Here are all the phone specs ---

Android Version: 4.4.2

Baseband Version: I545VRUFNC5

Kernel Version: 3.4.0 dpi@SWDD5015 #1

Build Number: KOT49H.I545VRUFNC5

SE for Android Status: Enforcing SEPF_SCH-I5445_4.4.2_0011

Secure Boot Status - Type: Samsung

Hardware Version: I545.07

Security Software Version: MDF v1.0 Release 2

Now I have disabled and *removed* KNOX (using NoBloat)

Like a lot of people, I absolutely HATE the new look of the UI (the S3 was great).

I would like to know what new ROMs I can use with this unit, and also what steps I need to take to install them.

Thanks SO much for any assistance! :)

Doing a search in the general forum for "MDF" turns up ZERO results.

So again, YOU say there are posts specific to my model and firmware, yet the site's search indicates that is not the case.

Um I'm might've just answered this in another thread, not sure if that was you, but you have to look at the last three letters of the alphanumeric code under "build number". The security software is irrelevant. As [MENTION=3882268]decaturbob[/MENTION] said, you have an nc5 phone, we have lots of helpful members who spent a lot of time making guides to teach you about what you can and can't do with your phone. These guides are either stickied or in one of the couple first pages of the general section. Good luck
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DeathStalker77:
Hi joshm!

I saw the stickies and I saw the references to NC5, but most of them also make reference to MDK, so I'm confused - NC5 is one build and MDK is another build?

I see this note (and DOH! I didn't even realize it was decaturbob who made the post <faceplant>) - All revisions of the I545 after MDK (ME7, MI1, MJ7, MK2) can NOT have a custom recovery, only Safestrap can be used.

I see posts about dropping back to MK2 from NC5 in order to root (mine is already rooted with TowelRoot).

If the *only* way to get a custom ROM on my unit at this time (and I'm looking at CM11 mostly) is with SafeStrap and bootslots, then I'll just wait it out - can't be bothered with that much hassle :(

You have to remember, what seems *simple* for you experts, may not be for the layman. By the same token, the stuff *I* do for a living, might seem complicated to you :) I know Windoze, but not jack-squat about Linux/Android. I can do just about anything technical on a desktop in my sleep, but phones are still pretty much a mystery to me ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
You can use towel root method to root.... You can install 3.72 safestrap and then install any ss compatible roms.... The process isn't complicate but you have to take some time to read and research. Several YouTube videos available....

Yes, while in camera mode tap the "tools" button and press the button in the bottom left (I've got a Dutch version, its called "werkset" here, guess its someting like "tools" in English). Tick options, and then the most-left tab. There's an option called "Save to: "
[Galaxy S 4 General] fabecoool:
Hi everyone,

I just wanted to let you know about what I have found out.

A couple days ago my I9505 started to overheat a lot, although it was not used and in my pocket. At first I thought it was the battery, so I switched it off and took the battery pack out, but it turns out it wasn't hot... but the phone was! Especially the upper part (around the camera, and even on the screen side). I waited and restarted the phone. After a while it did it again and my phone rebooted by itself after a few hours, which was a complete surprise: I have been running the last stable version of SlimBean, which is awesome and really stable for the past couple of months (the reason why although I have tried some KK based rom I ended up going back to 4.3).

Anyway, I though maybe something was wrong with my settings and I decided I would test a few KitKat ROMs, and so I did:

- SlimKat

- OmniRom

- CarbonRom

- AOKP

- CM11

- and a few more...

With all of them, I experienced the same issue. And I had them all for a few hours, because I know at the beginning the phone always retrieves data and apps from google servers, so I figured it was bound to heat, but not that much! And the random reboots happened in all of them.

This morning, I was ready to flash back to a stock ROM to have the phone serviced (I have knox tripped but I don't care, I don't think they would mess around with me about it here in Europe, at least from what I've heard, and anyway, I'd just tell them that Kies did it ;)), when I realised that Hey! the day before it started, I was unable to copy/paste all the data from my 32GB microSD card to my computer using the USB cable. I would systematically get an error saying that the device has been disconnected from the computer. I had even wondered if my USB cable was damaged, but seeing that the phone charged alright, I did not pay too much attention to it.

I started to investigate the card and retested some ROMs I had tested previously. This time I would not connect, but I did try with and without the card, and BINGO! every time I put the card in, it would overheat.

I then tested my card with an adapter in my computer, and there seemed to be something wrong with it, because even then the copy operation would hang! So I formatted the card (after I had backed up everything I could), and put it into the phone, where I formatted it again with the phone. Now the card has been (albeit empty) for a few hours in the phone, and no overheating or random reboot in sight :) (running the latest stable SlimKat).

So if your phone starts to overheat, especially the upper part, check what happens when you remove the SD card.

Hope I'll have helped someone with this. If you don't hear more about me in this thread, it means everything's alright. I'll start re-loading things on the same microSD card. I'll see if it is still faulty or if the phone heats up. If it does, I'll try with another microSD and see if it does the same.

Cheers!

[Galaxy S 4 General] armaan.ag:
Do tell me if the micro sd card is the problem. I have this overheating issue since a year and haven't been able to sove it. Yet. But i remember trying to rovercome this issue by the micro sd csrd method, it hadn't worked..

Anyways, this issue with s4 is too common, i know 10-15 people with the same issue, so i think its a hardware fault..
[Galaxy S 4 General] ugly_bob:
Thanks for this, very useful advice. Just recently I was having some issues with my phone not writing to my SD card and the card inexplicably filling up with data. It turned out to be corrupted data in the Android folder, so I backed up my stuff, formatted the card etc and that fixed it (as well as freeing up about 6gb of space on the card)

After reading your post it occurred to me that corrupted data may have been causing overheating in your phone, due to the card constantly being read over and over.

I didn't experience any overheating myself but it could well be the same cause. Either way, definitely worth checking if you're having overheating issues.
[Galaxy S 4 General] ench18:
Very interesting. I for one reformat my SDcard every 2 to 3 months. Just a simple maintenance that i like to do. This is something good to keep in mind and thank you for sharing mate. :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] fabecoool:
So! Some more info on this (just in case someone's interested), but first FYI Armaan.ag, the card seemed to be the issue.

I had another microSD card of the same capacity, so I copied every single file that was on the faulty card to my computer, and I noticed there were two mp3 files that were in fact not really mp3 files, but rather some junk that the phone must have created at some point.

I deleted these two files and copied all the rest to the new card, and it works just fine. So at least it's not a hardware issue on the phone: it reads the card content fine and does not overheat (well, IMHO a phone should not overheat when it encounters a corrupted file, but that's another issue)

As for the first (faulty) card, I have formatted it (full format) and checked it for errors. Windows tells me it is fine. I'm now copying all files back to it, I'll test it when it's ready. If it still crashes my phone, then I'll try on my wife's phone (I9300) and see what it does before I return it for exchange (the card is not even 3 months old).

Cheers!

[Galaxy S 4 General] ugly_bob:
When the OS is indexing files on the sd card the CPU will be working, if there is corrupted data on the card, it can interfere with the data indexing and cause the OS to read the card over and over. This will keep the CPU active for longer than it needs to be, and when the CPU is active for extended periods of time it can cause overheating.

Alternatively, the overheating could have been caused by a physical fault with the sd card reader or the sd card itself. Either way let us know how you get on.

[Galaxy S 4 General] kelvin00:
Mines doing the same thing.
[Galaxy S 4 General] fabecoool:
Everything fine now

Just thought I'd let you know after re-formatting the card:

Complete format with windows, then erase card on the SGS4, which then complained that my card must be formatted, so I formatted it with the phone.

I've been going with the original "faulty" card for more than a week now, and I have had no overheating issue. All the files (except the corrupted files) that were on the card when the problem occurred are back on it. And no issue.

Hope this helps!

Cheers!

[Galaxy S 4 General] charlie878:
1.this is a 7.9mm phone

2.the back cover is thin as a sheet of paper

3.the sdSlot has been installed behind the processor (for speed reasons) and it's made of metal components so there s heat transmission

just replace your cover with the stock one of the 9505 black edition and tell me ;) ..anyway i wanna try this solution tnx in advance
[Galaxy S 4 General] fabecoool:
You're not wrong at all, but the fact here is that there was a real problem: it was really hot AND there was a huge drain on the battery, which changing the back cover wouldn't have solved.

Besides, I no longer need to do anything, since after formatting the card, it's back to normal, i.e. no overheating. But you're right that heat reaches the surface of the back cover when e.g. downloading or watching streamed videos for some time.

Cheers!

Hi guys, please I need some answers for my questions.

I have a Samsung galaxy tab 3 SM-T210 8GB WIFI only, with 1,2 dual core CPU and 1GB of RAM, and I live in Morocco.

So my questions are, will my tablet also get a Kitkat update from Samsung anytime soon? Because I saw that the Sprint version already got it, and so did the 8 inch version.. If not Kitkat, will it at least get an update to 4.2.2 Jelly Bean? Cause it kinda sucks if they keep this device stuck with 4.1.2 :/ It's a lovely device and I love it but I'll love it even more with Kitkat or at least 4.2.2 Jelly Bean.. And finally, if they don't release an update for it, would you suggest that I root my tab and port a Stock-Official Kitkat (4.4.2) into it? It would generous of you could provide the cons and pros of this procedure ^^

If you have any kind of information about this matter it would be so much appreciated, thanks mates :)

Hi all

Need some advice on how I can debrand my HTC one m8. I've always been a Samsung user which was easy to debrand. I've searched but can't find a solution or a guide. Can someone point me in the correct direction how I can debrand. My phone is on o2 and I want to fully debrand.

Thanks

Maybe I wasn't specific, can I Debrand without rooting.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndM14:
I don't know, have you ever tried to do an update to the windows system or even a game running on windows without having to grant it administrator privileges? Some things just need that extra bit of authorization, like rooting gives you. :rolleyes:

There is a thread in the AT&T section where a developer showed the steps necessary to convert the device to developers edition I should think it's a similar process to convert to international WWE version, just need to use the correct firmware/software.

Convert AT&T HTC One M8 to Developer Edition? Just use the correct CID and MID(Though I think all European devices also share the same MID, can just look it up though and compare with your own MID).

You can get stock nandroids for international WWE from this thread. COLLECTION of Stock backup's International WWE would be HTC__001 also make sure to rather use the 1.54.401.5 version and not the .10 version in order to test your conversion with the OTA update like mentioned in the guide thread linked above. There's a nandroid backup for 1.54.401.5 for both CWM/Philz and TWRP at the bottom of the first post you'll find the stock recovery for 1.54.401.5 as well.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenPope:
To debrand, you need to install a custom ROM, which requires boot loader unlock or S-Off.

Since it is the ROM that is rooted, you can decide to flash an unrooted ROM.
