- I unzipped e.g. T705XXU1ANF from samdownloads.de.rar.

- Then I opened the T705XXU1ANF7.tar.md5 and extracted the *.img files with winrar.

- Then I tried to mount system.img / recovery.img with OSFMount.

Mounting worked but non of the ext2 tools (Ext2Fsd, ext2explore, explore2fs-1.08beta9, Paragon ExtFS for Windows, LinuReader ) would recognice the mounted image or could mount the image itself to view the files.

For ICS/JB I read about ext4_unpacker. Do we have something like that for Kitkat ? Or is it possible under Linux (I am a noob there)
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pegasus21:
Basically on Linux, it's really easy.

mount -o loop disk1.iso /mnt/disk

Or wherever that you want it to be.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gggg:
did one of you mount an system.img from Kitkat Stock Rom already ?? Because I dont think ist about W7/8 .... some of the tools listed should be able to read ext4 ... (ext4_unpacker wont work either !!)
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gggg:
no it cant be mounted that way... I tried under unbuntu LiveDVD. the System.img can be mounted, but there is no readable filesystem. So it must be processed in some form like ext4unpacker did for ICS/JB ...
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pegasus21:
You're right... I thought it worked out of the box.

Anyway, I used RKwinTools to extract the system.img contents on Windows.

Place system.img in RKwinTools_v133\unpack\firmware\image\

Run the batch file and select option 6 and you'll find the contents under RKwinTools_v133\unpack\System
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gggg:
THX unpacking worked like a charm, but is there also a way of just converting the img to one that is a mountable.ext4. This one I could use under Win and Linux as it would keep permissions ... (Simg2img didnt work)

This is the error:

*** Please wait... ***
Ext4Extractor version 1.5.2 Created by And_PDA Based on sources ext4_unpacker
Extractor for images in EXT2\EXT3\EXT4\SPARSE formats

Open image file Unpack/Firmware/Image/system.img successfull...

*********************************
*** Error! ***
*********************************
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pegasus21:
Well option 7 will convert the sparse ext4 image to a normal ext4 image. The message shows error but it would seem that it's converted. Find the image in the same location that you placed system.img.

Mount system_ext4.img on linux using

mount -t ext4 -o loop system_ext4.img /mnt
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gggg:
THX so far, I can mount it on my Linux PC not under Win8

- Linux Rader still cant open it

- I can Mount it with OSFMount, but neither paragon ExtFS nor ext2Mgr recognice the mounted Drive ????

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snoozer854:
I figured it was going to happen someday & it did yesterday.

I know there will be no easy fix, other covering it with a piece of tape like I did.

Will this cause any harm not having the dust over or whatever it is caused not on there?

I am more afraid of having the card pop out & lose it.

Any suggestions on a better fix than tape?

Thanks

Mark
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
You might be able to get a replacement from B&N. They just snap in with prongs. But keep the old one, it has your serial number on it. Otherwise, no reason why tape won't suffice.

I am going to be buying a bluetooth headset soon for my HTC Universal pocket pc and I need help in deciding. Personally I would like to go for the best in BT headsets.

Personally I believe that the Plantronics Voyager 510SL is the best I can get and there is to be offered. I already have a Motorola HS850. Haven't used this one yet. Would anyone know if Motorola HS850 is compatible with the HTC universal? How about the Plantronics Voyager 510S BT headsets?

Anyways I would really like to know whats the best there is to offer and anything beyond plantronics. :D

Plantronics Voyager 510S

Alright looks like i am getting the best of bluetooth headsets in the market. The $400 Plantronics Voyager 510S. Just bought it off Plantronics and is arriving today. Will post pictures and performance data after testing.

Looks like it might be better than the Samsung WEP200

Plantronics Voyager 510SL

My Plantronics Voyager 510SL has just arrived and is charging right now.

My motorola HS850 is garbage compared to the Plantronics Voyager 510SL.

I would say the Plantronics is the best bluetooth headset from all this research. :D .

Everything about this device is excellent. It has auto-answering, not only compatible with the Universal but other cable phones too.

You can hook it up into a phone jack and you are ready to go in home or office. Its wireless signals coverup the whole house, downstairs or upstairs and there is no disturbance what so ever. There are three earpieces included to fit all ears.

Even the HS10 phone handset can be placed right on which is robotic and lifts the reciever with the touch of the button!! Hands-free reciever??? WOW!

Plantronics Voyager 510SL Plus and HS10

Its amazing. I have never seen anything like this before. I guess this adds up to my knowledge database. This is some new technology never heard of. Indeed now it seems that Plantronics keeps their reputation and no wonder why Neil Armstrong used the plantronics headsets on the moon. These Plantronics guys are totally at the NASA scale and cannot be compared with a mere company like HTC. Infact we at xda-developers are far greater than HTC. The hardware upgrades i am talking about wont come for another 5 years. Especially Windows Photon.

Check this out for Plantronics Voyager 510SL Plus.

I hooked it up to my corded phone and there is a microphone that goes to the phone speaker. As soon as the phone rings the reciever is automatically picked up by this robotic device when it hears the phone ring. The call is forwarded to the headset which has wireless coverage throughout my office. I then answer the call and when i am done the robotic device sets down the reciever.

Amazing isn't it? This robotic device is called the HS10 accessory kit that comes with the bluetooth headset.

Motorola HS850 is no match to Plantronics. Motorola = Garbage in - Garbage out
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] KoenC:
Is this Plantronics Voyager 510SL also compatible with the HTC Wizard (imate K-Jam) ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] nuclear:
Any device that supports bluetooth. I think HTC Wizard has bluetooth so yes it will work with it. The Plantronics Voyager 510SL costs about $500-$600 USD along with the HS10 accessory kit.

[Q] KFHD 7" 2nd - Rooting & General Questions:(Prime Instant Video, Google Music...)

Hello community,

I am planning to get the KFHD 7" 2nd Generation (Soho) device basically because it is available for only 79 EUR right now.

I would like a device to watch Amazon straming video, listen to my music on Google and anwer my mails (GMail). Before I buy the KF I have a couple questions which are related to my future usage.

I would like to run all of the following apps together:

- Amazon Prime Instant Video (German Version)

- Google Play Music

- Gmail

As far as I understand rooting the device is pretty risky. Nevertheless root seems to be necessary in order to install and run the Google apps.

Will Prime Instant Video still work after rooting and / or installing the google apps? Maybe even after installing the Google Play store?

Do I have to change the appstore first to Google (Install Google and other Apps) and then back to Amazon (for Video streaming)?

Will Google Play Music work if I set the appstore to be Amazon?

What procedure / method should I use? I found the rooting guide at: kfsowi.com

Thanks for your help...

BUMP

Anyone?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LinearEquation:
Rooting gives you access to the roots. It will allow you to uninstalled bloat and add Google Play. Rooting does not effect the features that are stock with the tablet. It's custom ROM's that will remove Amazon Prime playback abilities. Your fine to root and keep all the goodies afforded by Amazon and add some of your own. That said, rooting is becoming harder for this tablet. I would message Gran PC and make sure a root exploit still exists. Only his firerooter has worked on the 2013 KFHD. good luck.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brainsenhh:
Thank you for the answer. That's good to hear...

Did you actually test root and Amazon streaming video together?

I read somewhere else that it doesn't work together. (http://www.geek.com/gadgets/amazon-video-broken-on-rooted-kindle-fire-1442047/)

It might be a different version / firmeware /etc...
[Mi 3 General] kekkojoker90:
Well, i heard people complain about gpl license breaking (you have all the rights of this world) and for missing kernel's source. Now i'm here for report (sorry for my awful english :() the word of Hugo Ibarra that confirm the release of MI3 source later this year. And i like to add that xiaomi already release source for mi2 and mi2s.

(if isn't a fake screen)
[Mi 3 General] zelendel:
Which is complete BS. They have to release it upon device release. This is why this forum was made. To help call them out and to Rip MIUI apart.
[Mi 3 General] CharsiBabu:
lol, that's exactly why I wasn't willing to buy this device.

There are already plenty of threads on miui forums complaining about lack of kernel source.

Before the launch of this device in India, I was almost convinced to buy Moto G by my fellow members from galaxy y section.

But the specs were too good to ignore given the same price group.

When I saw that reply, this came out of my mouth:

hey, better late than never.
​

It's simply disheartening to see that a device as powerful as this being forced to use sole miui rom(or its cooked version).

I haven't tried cm11, but from what i've heard, people are loving it.

One of the developers(varun chhitre) of cm11 for this device has prior experience dealing with micromax(another non compliant oem).

If/When kernel sources get out, I hope this device gets developer support.
[Mi 3 General] zelendel:
Ill be honest. Dont count on it. Most Devs have a very big hate for them and no matter how good the hardware is will not touch the device until it comes clean.

Oh he and I know each other well from my attempts to help with the Micromax issue.
[Mi 3 General] mufti.arfan:
Better late than never. Still they hardly have cared about gpl. Releasing sources, after they release new device.
[Mi 3 General] percy_g2:
Yeah , good step by xda but i don't have any Hope that they will release kernel source and even if they do , it will be some bunch of crap to stop user's from spamming there customer support for kernel source .

They already broke privacy of many user's by stealing data .

Hello all!

Sorry, I know this is probably a stupid question, but after reading a few threads, I can't figure out if I can flash custom roms, since I'm running MK2. I know that I can't flash a custom recovery since I'm not running MDK, but past that I'm unsure.

I get the general feeling that I should be able to use Odin to flash a custom rom to my phone, but I'm not sure if that's right, and I don't wanna risk bricking.

I've done plenty of rooting and flashing with my old LG Ally, Pantech Breakout, and HTC Thunderbolt, so I'm sure I can figure out the process if it's possible, but I'd feel a lot better if someone could give me a specific "Yes it's possible" or "Sorry dude, no dice".

For include apps, i have to put .apks simply in /system?

Can i rename the .apks?

some more suggestions if you are trying to make something AOSP styled

1) add nova launcher or Google now launcher

2) check themes and apps ultagamerhd has provided a AOSP styled systemui for e single (ics but I think you will need to deodex for that)

3) you can also add nexus sounds or cyanogen mod sounds

and take a look on other ROM's to get ideas

keep calm and call J.A.R.V.I.S
