[Google Chromecast] AlphaCureButt:
Okay, so I have a Chromecast that I bought about a week ago and it worked awesome. I bought it primarily for the screen mirroring on my s4. So it worked for a while but when I go to use it last night, the option to cast my screen is missing entirely from my menu. I tried uninstalling the app and factory reset of my Chromecast. I can't find anyone on the Internet that's having the same problem as me. Can someone please look into helping me fix this? It works fine on my mom's galaxy s4. Thanks in advance.
[Google Chromecast] hwong96:
Go to device settings-apps-all. select Google services framework. Clear data. Clear cache. Reboot phone. Reinstall chromecast app. Go to settings-apps-all. Selelect Google play services. Make sure it is v5.0.89. Launch chromecast app. Do you see cast screen option?
[Google Chromecast] AlphaCureButt:
I followed all of your steps precisely and there is still no cast screen option after the directions.
[Google Chromecast] hwong96:
Do you have a backup from when it was working? If yes, restore from backup. If not, take it to your phone provider retail store and see if they can get it working. Your phone is not rooted I hope. Otherwise they won't work on it. It's weird your mom's same model phone works to cast screen and your's not.
[Google Chromecast] AlphaCureButt:
Yeah, it's rooted. I'm done. I'm going to flash the stock ROM on it because root has done nothing but mess up my phone. I'm not smart enough to fix things I tinker with. Haha.
[Google Chromecast] BRANDENDEUCE:
What rom & kernel are you using? AOSP based or TW
[Google Chromecast] AlphaCureButt:
I'm using stock. I don't know what the other things mean. I haven't changed anything except the status bar using the build prop hack. I even tried reverting to the original build prop and it didn't fix it.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Try power cycling your Chromecast, then go and do the Google Play services flush again after restoring your original build.prop
[Google Chromecast] AlphaCureButt:
Alrighty. I'll try that and post my results. Thanks in advance.
[Google Chromecast] AlphaCureButt:
Oh my God!!!! That worked. Thank you so much, man!!!! I love my Chromecast.
[Google Chromecast] bozzykid:
That is terrible advice. Clearing Google Services Framework can have bad consequences. Especially since it will break any apps that use google's messaging services. For instance, it will stop Gmail notifications for days. Luckily Gmail is one of the few apps that will eventually recover from the key being changed.
[Google Chromecast] ariaradiktya:
Hi, im having the same issue on LG D802 on CloudyG3. could you please explain more about "power cycling the Chromecast" does this mean factory reset my Chromecast device? and how do i "flush Google Play Services"? Cause i still cant find my cast screen option on the app till now :(
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Power cycle means remove power, count to 30, reconnect power.

You shouldn't need to mess with Google Play Services these days.

my galaxy s4 is doing the same thing

My casting screen option is gone and I don't know how to get it back either. This is horrible!
[Google Chromecast] KillaHurtz:
+1 on a D801 in the US. Was working on ClloudyG3(1.5?) and I upgraded to 2.1 and had the issue. Was not device specific as my wifes M7 suddenly had the option removed also. Hers came back and mine has not.......
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Definitely check the wireless connectivity of Chromecast.

speed4cast can help you benchmark that. If the connection is poor (like in one of my rooms) then Chromecast will intermittently drop off and streaming performance will be very poor, if it works at all.
[XDA Assist] SparkyX1:
I have recieved a new phone recently that decided to go into a boot loop after unplugging from charger this morning. Everything was working fine until this. I can not seem to find the recovery menu/reboot into recovery mode. If I hold the volume -, and power button I get a menu in chinese that appears to be for testing and "resetting eMMC". Is there anyone who may know how to enter recovery with this device? The manufacturer is unknown (appears as ALPS in android settings), model number H900. The device has mtk6592 CPU mali-450mp gpu, 2GB ram, 1080p display. Should I go ahead and RMA it? If anyone can translate Chinese I can post pictures of the menu I am able to boot into, however it does not appear to be the standard android recovery menu. Any help would be appreciated!

Hello everyone, this is my first post. I must apologize for my poor English. Because I'm come from Taiwan.

I have a question about my xperia Z1 charging issue.

I found my Z1, when it playing game(like coc),the temp raising very fast.

When temp over 45℃,I found phone won't charge anymore, though the phone was still plug charger.

It's really annoy me, cause the phone temp is so easy over 45℃.

I've tried install setcpu app to underclocked my phone. But I don't feel any improvement.

Can anyone please teach me, how to fix this issue?

Thanks a lot!!!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontrun:
I have a rooted nexus 5 running android 4.4.4, you would probably ask what OTA update do I want, and I mean when android L is released OTA, I recently knew that you can't get OTA updates if you root your device so I'm asking if I fully unroot with SuperSU will I get the OTA update?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swat4samp:
Depends on what you do after root. If you modify system files, then you won't receive OTA. BTW why worry about OTA after root. You can flash factory images directly :) or there is a seperate OTA thread where you can simply flash them even on stock recovery.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Or flash rooted stock rom via recovery.

OTA is the silliest way of doing it.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] raptorac3:
I really need some help, but if this is in the , someone please correct me

I have a Razr Maxx XT908, which I ended up flashing Cyanogenmod 11 to, which somehow changed my software to that of the Verizon XT912; I had the most recent version of Safestrap recovery on it too.

I one day realized that Safestrap was taking up most of my internal phone storage (3.3gigs, to be exact), so I moved the Safestrap files to my external SD card so I would have more internal storage for apps and the like. I rebooted my phone and I got the following screen

Invalid Flash Mode (S) Boot Failure

0A.77

eMMC Info: 16G

To return to normal mode - first press power key to power down

Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0

Battery OK

OK to program

Connect USB

Data Cable

Invalid CG OTV (CG: system): Invalid SP Data

Invalid CG HAB (CG: system, status: 0X0056)

Invalid CG OTV (CG: system)

It has been like this for months, almost 3 to be exact. I read online that I could use the Droid Razr utility, but at the time my battery was completely dead, so I rigged up a cable and now the phone is charged, but when I used the utility mentioned above, it went through the motions of trying to flash, and even though I get a few errors that say FAILED(remote: ), it appears to finish and says to press ENTER (or something along those lines) and phone will reboot to install radio files. I do as it says and my phone reboots back to the above screen.

I cannot get into recovery or anything; no matter what I do, I always get the Boot Failure screen or whatever.

is there anything that I can do to my phone to unbrick/reset to factory settings? I'm getting quite desperate.

Please help, someone, anyone?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxquicksh0txx:
WIFI-calling isn't available on the latest 2.22 base. You'll need to use a older rom, like Viper 1.8 or InsertCoin 3.0.8 etc...

Once you get that installed, be sure to pick T-Mobile in the install process. It should be enabled by default once you get it installed.

[HTC One S] Mikhei777:
Team Win Recovery Project 2.7.1.0, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

- Latest official TWRP gits used

- Charging in TWRP and offmode charging OK

- Battery % OK

- Compiled (compiled by Mikhei777) using official JB kernel.

Link: openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-villec2.img

Contributor: Mikhei777

What's new in 2.7.1.0:

Add GUI option to change or repair file systems on individual partitions. The change is destructive so backup your data including internal sdcard first. This option should make it a little easier to migrate a device from ext4 -> f2fs, for instance. You will find this option under Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, then select only one partition and then press the Repair or Change File System button.

Various bugfixes to backup and restore

Improvements to USB storage handling

Added a class to search for files to make finding the correct brightness file automatic in most cases

Various other bugfixes and tweaks

What's new in 2.7.0.0:

Faster graphics rendering by disabling alpha blending on fully opaque objects thanks to Tassadar

Allow sideloading from /tmp on encrypted devices

Check for a crypto footer before asking for a password to prevent user confusion

Additional checks for validity to auto generated backup names

Text wrap in the console output

Proper caps lock support in the keyboard

Mouse support via USB OTG for devices with a broken digitizer

Improve scanning of storage locations for OpenRecoveryScript

Haptic feedback for buttons, keyboard, and vibration at the end of longer running actions

Fixed ext4 wiping when no selinux contexts are defined for that partition (e.g. sd-ext)

Update SuperSU to 1.93 and improve installation process

Added selinux contexts restoration to fix permissions

Load RTC offset on Qualcomm devices to fix the date/time in recovery

USB Mass Storage fixes Add SELinux support checking

Add Disk Usage class to better handle excluded folders (e.g. Google Music cache)

Add 4.4 AOSP decrypt support

Add some toolbox utilities to TWRP (namely to support SELinux functions not supported in busybox)

Various SELinux fixes and bug fixes

I have a AT&T S5 and would like to enable native tethering. I mostly need it to USB tether to another android device. I rooted my device using the Towelroot method and then followed these directions http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2791938 and installed Xposed framework to enable tethering. It all worked but Xposed made my phone really laggy. I uninstalled it and now it's back to normal performance. I was wondering if there was an alternative method for enabling tethering by like manually replacing or editing the tethering files. I saw some guides that covered this for the GS4, but I wanted to make sure whatever I was doing would work fine on the GS5/Kit Kat. Thanks

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Austempest:
Hi Everyone,

I've been running CM11 on my HTC One M7 for months now (installed via CM installer, unsure what specific version but it was 4.4.2).

I live in Australia and recently went to the United States for a holiday where i used my phone with a T-Mobile sim (worst reception ever, but thats a different story).

On returning to Australia and reinstalling my Telstra sim i was notified of an update to CM to 4.4.4. I had a few problems installing it initially, but after the fourth attempt it installed, rebooted and i was running 4.4.4 (11.0-InstallerXNPQ29S).

About 10 days later my phone notified i was at 80% of my monthly data limit already and it turned out to be the Android System process using about half my data as a background process. I've attached a screen shot for everyone (i don't think it helps, but i did cause i can)

I only get 1.5Gb / month on my plan and have to pay an $15 a month just so that my phone doesn't go over my limit.

Google tells me that it might be linked to the backup & reset function of android, but thats one of the core features of android and disabling it will delete all my data on the servers.

Does anyone know why this is happening at all?

i had the same problem

I still have the same problem... I took the phone to be fixed under warranty for 4 times... they changed the camera modules twice.. and the last time they changed the whole board.. still..same problem!

now it turns out that if I give the camera a couple of hits on the table when it is showing green bars, it goes back to normal... but that's no solution...

any ideas ?!?!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] JoeBlog:
I Have the same problem with my JasJam, did get hold of a Dopod main board and fixed the problem. The Camera inside the JasJam, ( had it replaced 3 times too, ) doesn't have any padding on the connector like the Dopod does. However i suspect the Camera ROM may be corrup if anyone has a copy of a new ROM for the camera i would be more than happy to change the JASJAM board back in and give it a go as i cannot access Teltras Buisness Portal and Foxtell with the Dopod IMEI. The required software wont install without the linked Imate IMEI
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
Sounds like the camera needs to be plugged back in to the mainboard. It may not be pushed in properly causing your problems.

Use the HTC Service Manual to take apart what you need, You will need to remove the battery and back cover, and then fix it. You can test by fixing the battery in place and testing before you replace the back cover (I use a hair band to hold the battery in place).

Cheers...:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] JoeBlog:
Yeah, definatly the cause in the Imate, the Dopod camera has a small amount of padding so it can't Knock out, but with frequent fiddling i think i allso corrupted my ROM...I'm a silly bugger the camera seems to operat off a CMOS oh well... will have to find a workaround for the Dopod board then
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
Corrupted ROM shouldn't matter if you have Hard SPL installed. Use sd card method to reflash a rom you like.
