What is engineer mode? What can I do with it? ;)

Engineer mode is for development and testing and deep mod of your phone. No one should go there without solid base of information.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chopstix9:
So I have my old Nexus as a spare for the wife now as I bit the bullet and paid full retail for an S5. If I take the sim out of her phone and put it in my old one, would that make the phone active on her line? Obviously I would assume at the least I would need to do a clean flash with her sim in the phone? Would that work?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jar3112:
Are you serious? Phone number IS CONTAINED in the SIM card. Why on earth should it be phone-bound?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrgnex:
Yeah the phone number is bound to the Sim card not the phone. However sometimes you can have you old number on a new Sim card. This will render your old Sim useless and not every provider has this option..

I figured as much but just wanted to be sure in case the wife's phone goes boobs up and I need to swap it out with my old one.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] justice26:
Ok, I appologize in advance if this has been asked before. I have a galaxy note 3 rooted running stock 4.4.2 and a galaxy gear running stock latest upadated rom. I was able to side load apps to the galaxy gear watch using cmd, and adb. I installed fleksy keyboard, an sms client and the phone face maker onto my gear. I check to send an sms and all the uploaded programs are gone. I reboot the watch, they temporarily appear and disappear again within seconds. What am I doing wrong????

Also does anyone know the cmd, adb commands to uninstall these programs. Example: the command to install is

adb install C:\Users\home\Desktop\keyboard.apk. What would be the uninstall command. Thank you so much for the help

hi ,

firstly,

i have same setup as you ..Note 3 rooted stock v 4.4.2 and Gear 1( rooted ,Null 23 rom ,I don't have this problem now. )

the issue with apps" disappearing " is an old problem on Gear !

I personally think its Samsungs way of trying to put you off from sideloading other apps ?

However ,the apps you installed is still there !.and work 100%(if you reboot Gear it should show in apps section for a short while and then disappear )

They just don't appear/show in apps list /programs list

If you want to you can install old previous version of Gear manager (..i think around Gear manager vers 1.5.x.. ? or before, that did not have this problem )There is a thread with all Gear manager versions, in Gear forum .

Further, is it not easier to install/sideload apps using Wondershare MobileGo for Android (you can Google for free 2 week pc version and install on your pc ,connect Gear to pc, it will install the Wondershare app, (drivers) automatic on Gear )

Afterward just install/sideload apps from pc to Gear.

Good luck
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] justice26:
Thank u so much for your help!!!!! I figured out last night that it was my gear manager that was causing the disappearance of my apks. I installed the apk ggsms client on my watch and phone and the fleksy keyboard on my watch to be able to respond to sms directly from my watch. So if the apk disappeared i couldnt get to the ggsms to respond to the sms. This is what i did to so far fix the issue. I formatted my watch back to stock and uninstalled gear manager from my phone. Did the whole nfc and blue tooth sync to my phone. Once synced i went ahead and installed fleksy and the ggsms on my watch using cmd adb on my comp. I then installed the ggsms server on my phone. I then uninstalled the gear manager from my phone. I then synced my watch anf phone again via bluetooth which gear manager to download to my phone. gear manager opened did its thing and to this point both apks remain on my phone remain. I will do what you recommended if this fails me. Again thank u for your help!! Question, why root the gear? Benefits?

Ok, I opened, reluctantly, gear manager, changed my clock, to see if i would loose the apks and they still remain.. So far, so good. I have plan B, which is your method, if my method fails. :)

hi ,

just to answer your question on root ?

one off the most fustrating points of Gear for me, was to toggle bluetooth on and off and to see battery stats ( at a glance )

Bluetooth toggle was "hidden " in settings !( Yes, i know you can swipe down on screen ,but you cannot toggle switch )

Take a look at my screenshot( i set widgets to about 50% transparent ..top of screenshot left is bluetooth toggle ( i tap to switch bluetooth on and off )

Also battery stats /level top right..tap on it and i see my battery stats

O ,yes to switch screen off, i double tap screen ..!!

and to see my notifications ( sms , emails... etc ) i double press the Gear button !

Further i have Nova launcher( Prime ) on Gear ( which i have been using for years on phone )

I have set cpu clock speed and get very good battery use

Between 15../20% with moderate use a day

So i can easly go 3..4 days? ( if i want to )

Good enough reason to root etc ..

Side note ,

i have been on Tizen and back ,just plain boring overall ( that compared/said ... if you want the most out of your Gear ,my advice is to stay on Android )

Battery usage on Tizen is the same, as i am getting on Android ( depends, what combination ..phone /Gear )

Good luck

Thanks again for the response.

I have always rooted all my devices to unlock the full potential of the phone. I can see why it would benefit rooting the gear. I had also been using nova launcher on my phone for years and installed it onto my gear but had a problem where the clock wouldn't display. I would try to add the clock widgets from the nova launcher widgets menu and would get an error that the clock was not installed. I gave up, lol :p and went back to the stock launcher. The ability to toggle blue tooth as well as battery life with the ability to over clock, under clock is awesome. Great job!!!

Again, thanks for helping and guiding me with these issues. You have helped me tremendously!!!! :D :highfive:

hi ,

yes ,

if you are not rooted you can install Nova but ,you cannot use any widgets/wallpaper .

To get the full potential of rooting etc ... your Gear ,was the reason i flashed Null 23.

As it added basic full Android settings ,and cpu undervolting ( i set my cpu between 200 and 800 mhz and as stated getting very good battery life on Null23 . Must point out ,if Null installed, it is normally set, with both cores unlocked and at 1600 mhz ,but battery life takes a hit .)

Null comes with Nova/Apex( free version ) pre installed ,but as i had the Nova Prime( licence ) version on my phone ,found a post here on xda on how to transfer( my Nova Prime licence ) from Phone to Gear .

(i mention above facts ,if you one day try /flash Null)

Good luck

Hi,

I installed a new ROM and am missing a little feature now. Unfortunately I don't know if it was some hack or tool I installed or something to enable with the ROM itself.

When I wrote a new SMS and entered a few letters, a list would drop down with matching recipients names (and only their GSM numbers), and I could select from there. This is gone now, I can just enter the name, and when I press "Send" I'm taken to a separate page of matching recipients with all their numbers...

How can I get that back?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TheStillMan:
Hi,

So I've had my M8 for a little while, rooted stock rom. I've been noticing lately that the music sounds kind of muffled and odd when a song starts until I hit the Home button, then it's normal. It does this every time there is a new song playing, happens with both Google Play and Pandora (I didn't try anything else, I only use those 2), and happens with both my Skullcandy headphones and the earbuds that came with the phone, and some other ones that were laying around the house. It doesn't do this when connected to my car with bluetooth though. I haven't done any sound mods or anything. It's driving my crazy!

Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] MotoTurbo:
I've noticed it while playing through my car. I just turn up the volume lol
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TheStillMan:
Changing the volume doesn't do anything for me.

It sounds kind of muffled / mixed poorly (I hear more of the background) until I press the home key.
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] joem86:
I'm sorry if this has been posted before, but I cannot seem to find this information anywhere (including google).

I searched Amazon for unlocked windows phones for my upcoming trip to Europe, thinking I would only get a 520 for around my price range. Lo and Behold, I can get an HTC 8X for just $60 more. But there seems to be two variants:

HTC 8X C620E

HTC 8X C625B

(spam rules are preventing me from posting the amazon links, but a search should make them show up)

I cannot for the life of me find the difference! Do any of you know?

Also, can someone confirm that this phone does work in Ireland (specifically 3 wireless, assuming it's sim-unlocked)?

when i press the video call button - the call hang up immediately.

there is any fix for this problem?

Im sure thats how the rubbish iphone works iphone to iphone for it to work.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
You gave us very little information to go on. Which makes it rather hard to even guess at what is going on.

At a minimum, pertinent details would include: what app are you using for the video call, what your signal strength was, how often does it fail e.g. always, infrequently, in weak signal conditions, when calling iphones, et cetera. Do a speed test to see how much capacity your data link has.

Backup your system and revert to the original 900T firmware. Does that resolve the issue? What version of 900F firmware do you have? Did you have any errors when flashing the foreign firmware to your 900T?

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nirhal:
Thank you for responding.

I'm using the 3g video call (native)

The video call always fails (it says "the call was canceled).

The original G900T firmware does not support video call as far as i know. (T-mobile blocked video calls)

My operator does support video calls (i've checked it in another device)

I'm using phoenix ROM ver. 3,

But when i installed the ROM, I couldnt install the modem, so i think that my modem is still the original one.

When i tried to install the modem, odin said "fail(auth)" on the file "aboot".

Maybe the modem cause this problem?

And why can't i install the new modem?

The ROM works great except this issue.

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
A cursory search shows that the built in video call feature is proprietary, fails for many people and isn't much used - at least not compared to the myriad and more popular video call apps e.g. Hangouts, Skye, et al.

The Samsung video call app apparently only works if you are calling another Samsung phone that has the feature as well and you didn't tell us if that is the case for you. You also need a 3G signal with sufficient speed. You didn't make a speed test or tell us your network settings.. so we don't know if that is an issue or not. You say that your carrier supports this feature, but didn't tell who your carrier is. And you apparently had issues, Odin errors when flashing your custom ROM which may also affect this. And there is no mention in the support thread for your custom ROM whether this feature is supported or of people reporting that it works for that ROM.

That is just a start, it would be easy to add another half dozen potential obstacles to our list as well. The point is not to give you a hard time, but to reiterate that you haven't provided nearly enough information to begin to troubleshoot this. There are many reasons why it could fail. A search would show you that a lot of people have problems with the Samsung app. Which probably explains why most people use Hangouts or Skype which are more reliable video call apps.

If you prefer the Samsung app for some reason, all I can suggest is that you check the potential issues that I cited. And to provide a lot more details, so that someone reading this thread has something to work with if they endeavor to help you.

Hope that helps.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vylle:
My device is rooted and has XBMC on it. It was working fine for a month or so but now I keep getting long buffer times with a message saying Cache full. I tried clearing the cache before but i still get the error. I did some research and what i found told me to apply the zero cache advanced xml. so I downloaded two maintenance tools. one being XBMCHUB maintenance and the other being Xfinitytalk's maintenance wizard. I've tried both and no matter what it always stops to buffer every few minutes and it doesn't buffer to the end regardless of how long i leave it paused. If i accidentally restart the show at the half way point it has to pause and buffer from the start over again (which is VERY annoying) and makes shows quite unwatchable

i am not sure what to do anymore.. clearing cache doesnt help, port forwarding doesnt help, zero cache xml doesnt work. at one point i started wondering if it was the sources but i've tried it on multiple plugins and it doesnt work but netflix works fine. has anyone else been seeing this problem? can anyone advise me on what to do?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shinyhead:
I have the same issues as you do on both of my AFTVs. With my very limited experience with XBMC, it looks like the source being loaded down when I see these buffering and cache full messages. If I change to a different source or even go to SD source, no issues. It might not be the same for you, but this is just something I have observed because those cache full and buffering messages always BUG me!! :(

I was having an issue with a custom rom I had installed where it refused to boot.

I tried most of the setting in the bootloader and in the recovery to get it working but in the end I just reflashed.

But now I'm having an issue that no matter what ROM I use , I get a 1-2 minute boot time.

I have tried everything but it just sits at the HTC logo until the screen goes black then I can unlock

Its also not due to it being a first time boot , been using InsertCoin ROM for weeks now and still takes 1-2 everytime...

Where did I goof?

No, you have not "tried everything". Just some constructive criticism, folks make statements like this all too often on this forum. Its not only incorrect, but not meaningful. When stating a problem, you should state

exactly

what steps you tried and what the result was.

You almost certainly need to update your firmware as indicated in a previous reply. Long boot times is a known issue with outdated firmware + 2.22 based ROMs.

Hello Everyone,

This is only to share what I found after weeks of searching (after posting a question a kind gentleman referred me to it) that works with both the Canadian variant of the t0lte T889V and the T-Mobile version itself (t0lte: haven't tried it since I don't own the phone however it's stated in the posts that it works).

After trying it for a few weeks now it's very smooth, has a control environment that modifies OC, UV, GPU OC, etc with one click depending on profiles, etc.

Read on here ----------> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2602053

All credits due to psndna88 for creating the kernel and flash at your own risk (as in, if you flash the kernel and anything happens psndna88 and myself are not responsible.)

Make sure to chose the correct version depending on your phone.

Cheers everyone and hope this helps!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Double0EK:
Its been posted everywhere on the T889 Forums.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] wavv.drama:
Thank you. I hadn't seen it though, and I was trying to find a kernel that would allow OC'ing with 4.4.2. I found others though and thought it may help anyone who would need it.

But thank you again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] subaron:
From what I am reading, I understand that you tried this with T889V. But for sanity purposes and sake of completeness I want to ask the following:

The Agni kernel was flashed on T889V and in the last couple months you have had it, you have not noticed any glitches/issues?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] wavv.drama:
Hi there,

Yes, I have flashed on my T889V a few months back, since I wanted a kernel that would allow me to OC a bit, use fast charge for USB since I don't have a wall plug always available to me etc. Over the past few months it has worked flawlessly, I haven't had any issues whatsoever. I find my phone runs much smoother that it did before, it charges way quicker and given I haven't OC'ed it to the max allowed, it never randomly reboots or anything. Given I have added a bunch of mod apps such as viper4android for sounds and others that use a lot of ressources, it works perfectly for me, I never have any lags. I don't know if there is anything specific u would like me to tell u about, if so please let me know and I will.

Cheers
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] subaron:
Thanks for all the info. I do have a few more questions.

How is the battery life? The biggest issue I found with custom roms and stock kernel was that battery life was terrible. It would drop a percentage roughly every minute and a half the screen was on.

Which Rom are you using this kernel with?

Which recovery did you end up using? CWM, TWRP or Phillz?

Also, did you root the phone with CF-Autoroot or SuperUser?

I had issues with whatsapp when I rooted my phone (I could not download pictures, but could send them). Went back to stock as I use whatsapp a lot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] wavv.drama:
My pleasure! As for my set up, it's stock Touchwiz 4.4.2 running Agni kernel. The app it comes with allows for several customizations, both battery friendly and performance friendly, but what I use if the above stock overclocking and a little. The governor and I/O scheduler are part of settings that the creator of Agni has, which works very well for me. As for battery, it lasts pretty much all day.. I use the phone for about 3 to 4 hours of voice, read a lot with it and text/youtube/listening to podcasts/casting video etc, and it lasts all day long. I charge my phone nightly, and goes from the morning at 100% to night time (around 9pm) at about 35% - 40%. I use philz, and rooted the phone with philz after flashing the recovery through Odin; I've never used CF auto root. After rooting the phone, I installed superSU and my phone runs very very smoothly. I used (in the past) Omni on this phone, and it used to work perfectly.. I had issues with netflix and the gallery, so I stuck to it for a few months but got tired of AOSP and went back to Touchwiz.. I personally prefer it.

Hope it helps, cheers!
