[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mustakim_456:
Hello All Devs.

I have installed a custom rom names s5 sensation v4.0 4.4.2 for my s3 GT-I9300.

This rom is awesome and works very good.

Ram management is also good and battery is also last longer.

But it has some bug in it. They are as follows:-

1. its an full s5 type tom so all the funtions are of s5 typed I mean the key behaviour.

in s5 the menu key is been replaced to recents app key.

The dev of this rom has posted key behaviour. zip file for changing the key behaviour to stock s3 but the problem is that when I flash it to the stock s3 key behaviour it wont start and stuck it in boot loop until I again flash the s5 style key behaviour.

2. I have flash the OTA.zip file for the further update of this rom via OTA as its not available directly.

It shows me that I have an update available but when I click on download button it starts and after some moment it say "There was an error while updating".

I tried many times to update but still no luck.

I also again flash the OTA.zip but still it wont work for me.

If anyone having having the same problem and got fixed then if you don't mind can you please share the solution with me.

Hello Guys,

I need clarification on few doubts. I tried searching but was not able to find the correct answers. It would be great If someone could answer it.

1) I use a note3 n9005 in India. It was region unlocked when I bought it. I am planning on rooting it and installing a custom rom. Will the region lock kick in after I root or install the custom rom?

2) If I root the device without tripping the knox, will I get any samsung official OTA updates?

Thank you in advance.:good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
1. If it does, Chainfire has an app for that. RegionLock Away.

2. Not to my knowledge. And you shouldn't want to, either. Best use Odin.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tribalfs:
1. No

2. Yes - as long as your system status is official and knox flag is 0
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manu4204:
Thank you guys.this battery drain is driving me crazy and I guess only solution is a custom rom. Thank you for the help.

Hi all,

Am I able to register my Tytn with HTC?? I've looked on htc.com, htcamerica.net, europe.htc.com and every other htc variant I could find of HTC sites on Google, and I don't see anywhere where I can register the device. This seems strange. Also, no mention of registering it in the manual either...

Thanks,

SP
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] goestoeleven:
Ah, you're making the faulty assumption that HTC wants to support you... ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stpete111:
Yeah, that's what I figured. Well that sucks. I'd have gone with the Jasjam if I would have known that to be the case.

Mehh.

It may not make any difference: who knows how long I-Mate will be around without HTC propping it up...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] PPCNUT:

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanmoce:
I converted to Full GPE and I'm happy with it so far. Before the conversion I made a stock nandroid. I have also made a GPE NANDROID backup with all my settings and apps.

My question is: Can I just restore the stock backup through Twrp or do I have to go through the conversion process back to stock before restoring my backup. I ask this before because the GPE conversion changed the partition size. I don't know if the can cause issues with what I'm trying to do.

I just think it will be pretty cool if I can just switch backups whenever I feel like through TWRP. Plus I'm in a situation where I like using both the GPE and Stock sense.

Please let me know .

Thanks again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] an0ther:
You must convert back to sense but the gpe backup will work in sense.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanmoce:
So need to convert to sense to enable restore from both backup. I don't understand as to why I can't do it without converting back to sense. Any ideas
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] an0ther:
because your partition size is locked. sense partition size is larger. Go ahead and try and it will fail. Zero advantage to converting to gpe. There is a sense rom that runs on gpe. Team nocturnal made one that is stripped down to work on gpe partition.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanmoce:
OK got it. So I can convert to my stock and then use either of my nandroid backup for whichever one I feel. Thanks mate.

I am new to Android development, and I have written this small game in last several weeks. Please let me know your suggestions and feedback regarding this game, thanks!!!

From the Play Store:

After the splash screen, just flap up and down to fling away obstacles for Lily, the cute (really?) alien pet that looks like a pair of glasses that has terrible eyesight (duh!). She escaped from her owner and wanted to be free. Fling away obstacles for her and she will be free~

HOW TO PLAY:

You have 20 seconds, and you gain time swiping the right way.

Swipe up for Christmas Trees (I know it's not Christmas yet...).

Swipe down for light poles.

Make sure you swipe the right way!

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anirudhabrv:
It is due to drivers

If you are using Win 8 you need to install an update which supports Flashmode and fastboot drivers

otherwise just restart your pc/laptop by using "Advance Reboot" option in settings

And choose Disable Signature verification when pc/laptop boots into advance menu.

This solved my problem. Hope yours is also solved.

Use USB 2.0 port to flash. U cannot flash if you connect to USB 3.0.

You're using the [HOW TO] abbreviation incorrectly - you're not providing any sort of How-To guide to the community and just asking for a question. So this is also in the wrong section of the forums.

Regarding your problem. No you cannot port N9005 to N900 just like that. They use different chipsets and are virtually impossible to do so without advanced programming.

I am using an unrooted Nexus 5. I am familiar with the public and private data directories in Android.

My question is related to /storage/emulated/legacy. First I see multiple symlinks to this location. Second it is strangely mirrored by /storage/emulated/0.

My real question is this location a hard link with /data/media/0? I cannot see this as I am not rooted. I am asking because I know Android only encrypts /data. I want to make sure the public directories are also encrypted.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anabellita:
Hi,

I am having serious issues playing videos on the device. The stock players (photos and movies apps) won't play anything I get through whatsapp (mostly sent from iOS devices), many vids from YouTube, nor the sample videos which were pre-loaded on the phone (?!?).

I downloaded MxPayer and VLC, which mostly solved the problem, but I'm still having problems with the YouTube app. In case it helps, here is an example of a video I can't watch (my one-year old's favorite): http://youtu.be/VMl0GbiVEyA.

The phone is brand new, arrived 4 days ago. I'm running the latest firmware (Kit Kat, build 14.4.A.0.108), which the phone prompted me to install. It is not rooted and I hope to keep it that way, at least for a while.

Any ideas? Is anybody else experiencing this?

Thanks!

[Google Chromecast] dkdk115:
Hi all,

Yesterday I splashed out on a home-theatre speaker system (Bose Cinemate II) which plugs into the back of my TV. Along with this I bought (was persuaded to buy) a chromecast, theory being that I could stream music from my lap top, phone, tablet, wirelessly - which is my ultimate goal.

The problem is, I've just discovered that I can already stream, or cast music from my laptop and phone to my x-box 360. This is an ill-timed discovery, as it has left me wondering what to actually do with my chromecast. I'm not all that interested in screen sharing/chrome sharing although I suppose I might use it every now and then, and I don't use google play music for my music.

I would welcome any thoughts or idea. Is there any advantage to using the chromecast over an xbox for streaming media? Am I missing something or some way of setting up my system which could revolutionise things for me?

Thanks in advance.

[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Assuming both do all the things you want to do, there are two main points:

Control - How do you want to control your playback?

On Xbox you use your Xbox controller, or Kinect.

On Chromecast, you use your phone, tablet or computer.

Power - How much power do you want/need to consume?

Xbox uses significantly more power than Chromecast.

I have an Xbox 360, but the convenience of me or my wife being able to browse on her phone and send it over to the TV beats booting the Xbox for how we consume content - but everyone consumes content differently, so ultimately it's up to you what makes sense. :)
[Google Chromecast] dkdk115:
Great points, thanks for the reply. I hadn't factored power usage into this, nor my wife, in all honesty. Definitely easier to control from the source device I think, rather than the xbox controller.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
I think so too, and something we've been making lots of use of is the "portability" factor - watching a movie on the TV in the living room, then continuing to watch it on my phone in the bedroom while my little one winds down for the night then back to the TV after the little one is asleep. :)
[Google Chromecast] Tib44:
an other thing is the chromecast make no noise while the xbox is very noisy (the white model at least)
[Google Chromecast] xnatex21:
I encountered this last night and was markedly more annoyed with having to boot up my ps3, get the controller, make sure it had enough charge and then find it as I moved around the room/house rather than pull my phone out of my pocket. A phone as remote is surprisingly more convenient than I would have originally expected. #FirstWorldProblem

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Luciferslux:
Hi everyone, I've just purchased an SPV M5000 off ebay and it should be with me on Wednesday. I've been reading up on this for a few hours but still have some questions which I'd appreciate some help with if you can.

I understand the Orange SPVM5000 is sim locked, is this true and how easy is it to unlock. I will be using this with an iBook and The Missing Sync software. I can use virtual PC if need be to flash the rom, but would I be better off going to a shop / market stall and paying a tenner?

My first question is: is the Orange branding as slow as the O2 Active branding? I'd hate it to be as slow as some reviews are saying.

I have read a lot about the corporate install option on the O2 XDA Exec, I presume this is available on the SPV M5000 as well - can someone please confirm? I have read that you need to enter the O2 connection settings on the Exec when you enter corporate mode, do you have to do this on the M5000 as well? If so can someone please post the settings?

If I flash the rom or debrand the phone, will I need to contact Orange to get GPRS & MMS re-enabled? They told me that they won't help me directly as I did not register the phone.

I am really looking forward to getting this but want to get it running at a good speed, so any assistance would be gratefull received.

James
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] neptune:
First I would like to say you made a great choice going with Windows Mobile. After my first device I considered myself a spokesperson for WM.

I also had an Orange SPV M5000 in the past and if you call them up they will give you the unlock code. The free way would be to get Buzz_Lightyears sim unlock tool available from his website buzzdev.net

If you feel confident enough you can do everything to the phone yourself, but as it is a very expensive unit you have think twice about doing any flashing to the phone.

My o2 active UI was very slow, and only got slower as more programs were open. The orange one responds a bit faster, but I dont know many people who keep the original stuff on there anyway. There are so many programs out there that can do alot more.

I do not believe there is a corporate mode install on the Orange version but you dont need any connection settings anyway.

Once you get the phone you will have to configure the network settings for MMS and GPRS yourself. I notice that u have are with fido as I am, but am pretty sure the settings will be different since you are in the states.

You can try these setting for GPRS and see if they work:

APN: wap.fido.ca (or mayb .com)

USER: fido

PASS: fido

Your last question about speed is that there are so many programs out there that enable you to do what you want but you have to keep in mind that each open program slows the phone down so you have to make a compromise somewhere.

Hope this helps
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Luciferslux:
Thank you very much for your help. I set my profile up wrong initially when I registered on here, I am actually in the UK and will probably use an Orange SIM for the phone, so I don't really need to unlock it I guess.

I would like to change the software though, could you tell me what settings I will need to enter and where (I will find the actual values for Orange UK)?

Many thanks
