Better. /cache is ridiculously large, and while system is big, their ROM takes most of it and this time they left a little wiggle room. Dumbest by far is recovery being only 8MB. I may not be right on my markup below because I don't have my notes handy, but it's close

These thing at $200 at Walmart a week ago, very good deal, considering they had the Nabi2 at $179 right next to it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Omegadrive:
Hi, just got this tablet today and I'm puzzled as why the Nabi website says this is supposed to have a Tegra 4 CPU but in CPU-Z it says is an Intel Atom Z3745. Many thanks for any info.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
Interesting. Initially this was to be an Intel CPU tablet(see CES articles from Feb), then it came out as Tegra4. Look at you model number. The "IN08A" versus the "NV08A". This is a first for Fuhu. So this recovery certainly won't work. Do you have fastboot?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Omegadrive:
Haven't attempted to root or install recovery, but it could be that they have both tablets at Costco, first one she tried to scan didn't matched the sku and she went and got another one, I will take it back today and make sure the model number starts with NV, I was actually expecting a Tegra CPU which is way better than a crappy Atom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
This recovery definitely won't work on the Intel one. I think I typo'd above, it NV08B not A
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Omegadrive:
Just came back from Costco, ended up returning it, there is no info on the boxes that says the model number anywhere, so didn't risk it. Thanks anyway.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pm1066:
So is there any viable method to root the Intel version? At this point I'd be happy with just knocking out the bloat so my kid can actually install apps.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
You can try towelroot. Only version 1 worked on the nvidia. Likely depends on software version and if futex exploit was patched in kernel.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pm1066:
I'll check it out. Don't want to brick my kid's toy!

Thanks again aicjofs
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chikimonke:
Since this is the only thread I've found that even mentions the DreamTab, I'm going to hope someone can help me. Basically my DreamTab was bricked with the latest OTA. Upon restarting after the update, I get the DreamTab logo "powered by android" and then after, it goes to the generic "android" boot animation, rather than the DreamTab animation. (The word android in the old font in a greenish color that has a "shine" moving across it) I've let it sit on this screen for a while, but it never moves beyond it. I've done a factory reset through the recovery kernel, but that doesn't seem to have helped anything. I am RMAing the device, but if I can avoid the 2+ of transit and such, I would like to. Any chance I can flash the OTA through the recovery kernel and possibly fix this? If so, any chance someone actually has the OTA zip? Thanks in advance.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
Do you know if it's the Intel or Nvidia version?

I am sure I have stock backup of nvidia in my archives somewhere, but haven't uploaded it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chikimonke:
How would one tell?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
I'm at work, but I think on the back in says something like NV8B, or IN8A. nv for nvidia, in for intel.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chikimonke:
nvidia it is. Is this something that can flashed through the stock recovery? Because if this doesn't work, I still want to be able to use the RMA that I have setup.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
No you would have to temp load TWRP to RAM(no flashing to nand), then restore. I could upload the OTA that's flashable with stock recovery, it might work if it happens to update the right files but if you have something corrupt it will fail the SHA1 checks. You were going from 1.2.9 to 1.3.7?

Let me know how you want to proceed.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chikimonke:
Alright, if I understand correctly, I could try the OTA first, then if that doesn't work try with TWRP. The temporary TWRP method, does it require unlocking the bootloader? I'm not familiar with loading a recovery only in RAM. And yes, going from 1.2.9 to 1.3.7. Thanks for your help.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HUYI:
Can it be easily rooted on the latest firmware? Has the audio lag, touchscreen and lag issues been resolved? When was the last time the uk model has had a firmware update?

Is it true the micro sd card is read only on this tablet? Can file browsers like astro file browser acess the micro sd card ok?

Does the speaker placement cause any issues? Especially if you are going the be holding the tablet there most of the time.

How long does it take to charge the tablet?

Sorry for the long questions but i need to be sure that this is the right tablet for me, Samsung don't offer 32gb model in the uk so I'm really interested in the Z2 because of this.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HUYI:
i know about the screen resolution, it's not as great compared samsung note 2014 but the Z2 has the advantage of more memory space, i think that is a good trade off imo.

i tend to hold my tablet in portrait mode so the speaker placement is a issue for me, i like that it's light so i can sit down comfortably with it for long periods, i have the galaxy note 10.1 2012 model and it's quite heavy compared to current models out there now, especially for long periods of use.

that is a bonus that the tablet supports the dual shock 3 out of the box, on other devices you have to root to use the controller wirelessly.

the waterproof flaps you say are a issue, so if you are using it in a water environment wouldn't that cause problems?

the galaxy note 10.1 2012 is just as bad when it comes to finger prints but it can be easily cleaned.

i didn't know it has vibration feedback, no website lists this feature, so thanks for telling me that.

samsung is king of bloat, that is good that there is minimal it saves me having to remove it all when i set it up lol.

battery life sounds good, maybe even better than the galaxy note 2012, quite frequently i'm charging the device during the day while using it. it could be because the device is getting old though.

i use my stylus a lot on my galaxy tablet, can you offer me some feedback if you have used one on this tablet? that is good to hear that it's easily rooted.

and thanks a lot for the reply.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaddyWhale:
I am very happy with my Z2 tablet.

I've not had any issues with the waterproof flaps. One covers the microsd (and sim) slot and the other covers the usb port. If you get a wireless charger, you won't find yourself opening the flaps often. They stay in place and have not opened by themselves. I don't think you'll have problems with waterproofness.

I personally find that the screen keeps quite clean. It's a MAJOR improvement in this respect compared to my previous generation Xperia Tablet Z.

I've tried using the Z2 Tablet with a stylus (Lynktec Rechargeable Apex Fine Point Active Stylus). It's been disappointing. Writing is nowhere as precise as with the in-built stylus on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3. If using a stylus with my tablet were important to me, I would have gone with a Galaxy Note tablet.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FluidDruid:
I don't think you'll have any problems then. The top and bottom bezels (as viewed in landscape) are large enough that if held in portrait mode you're very unlikely to ever cover the speakers. Assuming you're right handed and holding the tablet with your left (this is how I read newspapers and magazines on mine), one speaker will be about an inch diagonally down and to the right of the base of your thumb, and the other will be well out of the way at what is now the top of the tablet.

It also worth pointing out that the tablet allows screen rotation in all directions (is this true of all tablets? My phone doesn't do this by default), so if you do ever find that the speaker placement is an issue, you can just rotate it 180°.

Agreed. I should have been clearer when I listed the flaps as a con in my post above. I've got no concerns about their waterproofness. My concern is that if I was opening the USB cover daily to charge the tablet it might become weakened or damaged, which is why I bought the magnetic chargers. The port covers feel quite delicate when opened, but very secure when closed.

Same here. I've tried a DAGi 701 stylus (which is passive). Sketching is doable, but the display doesn't seem sensitive enough for writing. I hope that this is a software thing, though even if it were fixed, the extra features of the Note series such as the hover and palm detection would make it much more suited to note taking. I see the Z2 as more of a media consumption, rather than creation, device.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HUYI:
ok, thanks for the feedback guys, ill take all your replies in consideration when deciding, i use the black rubber end stylus, the one you mentioned is similar to the stylus that is included with the note 10.1, but it seems that no matter what stylus i will use i think i'll get the same results which is a shame really.

[HTC One Mini] AnGrY sCoTsMaN:
yeah sideload flashes instantly, I'm not keen on it!

try this ADB PUSH Rom & Gapps (not Insertcoin) to /data/local/ then install from that location in recovery.this should give you a working phone in the meantime

**edit** sorry just re-read your post, you cant push large files!:eek:
[HTC One Mini] Zoeriva:
Go to your bootloader and relock your phone by using fastboot OEM relock. Then unlock again. Now flash stock recovery. You can Now use rumrunner or revone to get s-off. After that flash the firmware from InsertCoin. Flash the InsertCoin rom and You are on your wat.
[HTC One Mini] Andyt95:
Is there any way to find out which stock recovery I want? there are 3 versions, 2 with x.401.x and 1 with x.206.x, which should I use?

Also, I know that I won't be able to use either rumrunner or revone until I get USB support back, which isn't happening
[HTC One Mini] Zoeriva:
You must use the 401. You can use revone After flashing the stock recovery.

---------- Post added at 09:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 PM ----------

Sorry, eten flashing stock recovery You get your fastboot USB back....and also adv.
[HTC One Mini] Andyt95:
sorry if I misunderstand, but how do I use adb with the stock recovery? I don't have any USB access at all when I'm running an OS, and only have adb in CWM recovery.

EDIT: I got reasonably far using the method outlined on this XDA page, under the heading "ROM update without SDcard" and using Philz recovery. This only seems to work in Philz Recovery, other recoveries cannot mount /data for some reason?

EDIT 2:

GOT THE BADGER!

I fixed my own problem, it only took 26 hours... I'll write a guide to help anyone with a similar problem but for now, I'm going to bed.
[HTC One Mini] Zoeriva:
You first must flash stock recovery trough fastboot......Then You will be able to use adb-sideload trough twrp.

---------- Post added at 11:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------

Sorry, i will explain....

1. Relock bootloader

2. Flash stock recovery

3. Get s-off trough rumrunner or revone

4. Unlock bootloader

5. Flash twrp

6. Flash firmware InsertCoin trough fastboot

7. Flash via twrp via adb-sideload InsertCoin rom.

You should be ok now!
[HTC One Mini] Andyt95:
The S-OFF part doesn't work because I don't (didn't) have USB when the device was powered up, nor could I mount /data/local/tmp or any other folder. Managed a fix with a modded CWM recovery and a sneaky sdcard emulator trick. Thanks for all your help anyway!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] mpyka91:
Hello, I just got my '14 Note 10.1 in the mail a few days ago and love it so far, but no matter what I do (uninstall/reinstall updates, clear data, clear cache, resynchronize accounts on this and other devices, pause/resume downloads) Google Play Music refuses to work.

Persistent Can't Download Music Right Now error for the past couple of days.

A song will appear to be loading, then it just skips down to the next one with no error message. I've had this happen to one or two songs on a former tablet, but it would always tell me that it couldn't play the requested music. On the Note it's roughly 3/5 tracks that wind up getting skipped without any warning. This includes music I have purchased from the Play Store on this device within the past 24 hours.

Is there any known way to solve these problems?
[Droid Ultra General] miketoasty:
This is for anyone who has root on 4.4.4 but also has write protection enabled. (Used SuperSU to keep root through the update).

This app will allow you to enable the native WiFi tether without modifying the system (Which we can't do anyways). I have been using this for about an hour with no issues.

Finally, I didn't make this, I'm just someone who's stuck between places and need WiFi tethering for my job and hate spending money. Use at your own risk of course.

[Droid Ultra General] Topsnake:
Its the same thing as the exploit I released in the dev section. Nice repost
[Droid Ultra General] miketoasty:
Link? I looked through both Dev sections and only saw exploits that require you to modify system files and build.prop. Sorry nonetheless if this has been posted before.
[Droid Ultra General] Topsnake:
Yeah i just made the connection now. Forgot not everyone has unlocked BLs. In theory, if the app can make the change, you can too.

The app literally applies the same exact exploit as the one I've already released.
[Droid Ultra General] miketoasty:
No it does not, it runs a command after the phone is booted that while requiring root to run does not make any actually changes to the system.

Again, I have a 1 for write protection (meaning its enabled) and SuperSU basically stuck in System and have no issues running the app, making WiFi hot spots, and having devices connected to it.

Make sure you have root survival set up as well, I'm not sure if the update would remove root without it but I don't think you would want to take that chance.
[Droid Ultra General] josuearisty:
I dont know if anybody found that before but Im able to tether wifi without doing anything [emoji1], of course Im using my phone outside US with a gsm carrier.
[Droid Ultra General] Topsnake:
and just to confirm, you couldn't apply my exloit? Again this app does the same thing.

That's because your on a different carrier
[Droid Ultra General] miketoasty:
I attempted this exploit by you TopSnake ( http://bit.ly/1zz1JOE) and after rebooting my build.prop was deleted and all renamed files were restored to their original state. Was there another exploit you were talking about? This was the only one I could find in the dev section for the latest update.

I do know that you can run a simple command to do what this app does but this app can run on boot up which saves some time.
[Droid Ultra General] iKrYpToNiTe:
The OP stated he was write protected, so he can't copy the build.prop over the stock one. My app doesn't write to the system it runs the /system/bin/setprop command to set the property. The build.prop sets the property on boot but after the phone has booted the build.prop is never read again. So replacing it on write protected devices won't work.

[Moto X Q&A] wagman67:
With my Moto X, I cannot seem to program an NFC tag...is there a trick to doing this.

I got a Skip and three tags with my Moto X and have quickly learned that I will not use the function the Skip is designed for.

However, I would like to use the three tags for various things.

I have tried using the app 'Trigger' to create tasks, but every time the app tells me to place my phone over a tag to program it (and I place the phone over one of the tags), it takes me directly to the Motorola Skip app to either setup or add another NFC tag to skip....very frustrating.
[Moto X Q&A] Grishka11:
You need some other tags or use some other device to reprogram these ones (if they're not read-only).
[Moto X Q&A] chrisp6825:
This is the Q&A section... (Apologies if this wasn't here before and got moved).

To the OP : moto's skip dot NFC stickers are read-only. They've been locked.

You can find lots of different nfc stickers that are read-write enabled all around on the internet. They're pretty cheap.

If you don't want to use the skip, then it and the dots are pretty useless to you.
