Android as Secondary Display

Thanks for this information about using android devices as secondary displays. I knew exactly where to come for the best information. I've read elsewhere on the Internet that this can cause the android device to freeze up and other problems, but when executed correctly, it can be quite useful. Does anyone have first-hand experience with this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnie2121:
Grateful

Before I dive into this I'd like to thank you. The fact that someone like yourself would take time out to help out a dummies like myself. I don't know if any of this applies to a Note 5 or Galaxy Tab A ,but trying to mirror either one of those is a friggin joke,it's like Vegas odd's if it will work!

Hopefully I can help someone

else out down the road.

I've actually stayed away from your site for quite a while. The last time I was on it the person I was trying to get ask a question apparently didn't like my level of "tech intelligence",he scared me,lol. So it's nice to have you answer something that I've been afraid to ask and embarrass myself for long time ,this is really good stuff,

so alot thanks,...jl...
[Moto 360] kornklown69:
Do you think this processor will make it difficult to Root? As well anyone know the power behind Texas Instrument processors? I'm more acquainted with qualcom,arm, Nvidia, Intel and MediaTek...
[Moto 360] slaydog:
Apparently TI stopped making mobile processors a couple of years ago, so that has caught a lot of people by surprise. Or the leak was just wrong...
[Moto 360] kornklown69:
I'm really hoping it is wrong
[Moto 360] javispedro:
What do you find wrong with TI? Despite being old, it has generally been an order of magnitude more open that most of the crap that is released these days...

The 4000-page manuals are still publicly available on TI's website.

That says nothing of the bootloader which is Motorola's decision.
[Moto 360] kornklown69:
True story never said specifically I had a problem with TI I'm sure moto got a great deal clearing out the left over supply of processors they had because most manufacturers went with whats more powerful... I'm still buying a moto I just hope its open to mod
[Moto 360] Tung_meister:
I'm worried about the features, performance and power efficiency of this chip vs the more modern options available in other watches. It's putting me off insta-buying one though since they're not available for a while in the UK any issues should be apparent by then.
[Moto 360] dpwhitty11:
Glass uses a TI chip. Motorola has used TI chips a whole bunch in the past. I'm not worried at all.
[Moto 360] TheManii:
The battery life on glass isnt amazing either, but realistically neither wears nor glass have anything but tiny batteries.

Glass uses OMAP4 though, like the GN.

Who knows why they chose OMAP3, depending on which exact one it dates as far back as the OG Droid (the last moto device with an official goog rom). I don't believe anyone mentioned the exact part number yet? It's not impossible that they made a new revision just for the 360 as OMAP3 is very old otherwise.
[Moto 360] dpwhitty11:
Its also entirely possible they made their own modifications to the OMAP chip. Wear isn't exactly that intense of a thing to run. So why not use an older tried and tested chip and modify the power consumption?
[Moto 360] newhor1z0n:
I think you all will agree with me when I say that the Moto 360 is the best looking Android Wear in the market at the moment. I was eagerly waiting for it ever since Google I/O 2014, but now that it has finally arrived I have been really put off by the TI processor. I've had terrible experiences with TI processors on previous devices so I'm hoping Moto comes up with a better smart watch, preferably one with a Snapdragon processor or at the very least officially unlock the bootloader for this one. I'm not buying another Moto product with a TI processor and a locked bootloader, leaving us with very limited unofficial development.
[Moto 360] AstroDigital:
The older processors are more power hungry (older technology larger scale) this is why manufacturers do not use them anymore.

The only reason Motorola used the TI processor while everybody else used quad-core processors is to save money building the Moto-360.

Using older single core processor on devices that have battery issues shows contempt to people that buy the devices.
[Moto 360] kornklown69:
ya and from some comparison reviews there is noticeable lag compared to the other android wear watches
[Moto 360] Tung_meister:
Are there any side by side comparison videos yet?
[Moto 360] johnomaz:
I got my Moto360 yesterday (2 were delivered to a near by bestbuy and I happened to get one of them, yay) and haven't had many issues with battery life. Today I took the watch off the charger at around 8am, 4.5 hours ago, and its at 87% battery right now. I've used it numerous times to read texts, check my heart rate a number of times (I've been having issues with my blood pressure and high heart rate for no reason so I've been keeping an eye on it) and well as just playing with it as its new and I'm having fun with it. The brightness is still set to auto on it also.

I personally haven't noticed any lag at all. it recognizes my voice quickely, and does its voice tasks without delay. I'm wondering if perhaps some of the lag is with specific phone models. I have an LG G3 which is a new and fast phone. Also using the ART runtime which was a nice speed boost to the phone and its battery life. Touch response has been very nice. I'm still scrolling through the list of commands until I learn them all and havent' had an issue.

I too was surprised with it having a TI OMAP processor but my old DroidX had a TI chip and it was a hell of a great phone. I'm sure everyone's experience will be different depending on their phone and how much they use it but so far, I'm very pleased with it.

My only issue is app compatibility. Looks like most apps for wear are designed for square watches and possibly different hardware. Watch faces are plentiful but I want a basic calculator on my watch and I haven't found one that doesn't crash. Also, the remote camera app doesn't work with the LG G3 camera but that is all developer issues. I'm sure they will get worked out.

[Moto 360] Tung_meister:
Well that has really annoyed me. I was hoping my concerns wouldn't materialise but now it's looking like I'm going to have to wait for another manufacturer to basically make the same phone with a modern SoC instead of this 3 year old junk.The issues might not be as apparent now but as more features get added to wear, more demanding apps get developed and possibly custom ROM's with additional features this thing is going to get left standing :mad:
[Moto 360] ChrisNee1988:
http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2014/09/moto-360-review-beautiful-outside-ugly-inside/2/

This article benchmarks a few watches, the 360 actually keeps up almost in CPU but falls behind more on the GPU and battery department.
[Moto 360] Tung_meister:
The terrible floating point operation performance concerns me but what's most worrying is the GPU as it's terribly antiqued and could be the real limitation.
[Moto 360] ChrisNee1988:
Its one of my major concerns as well. However in use, I don't notice any lag but I don't have any of the other watches to compare it to.
[Moto 360] spinedoc:
Running the wear internet browser and it's insanely slow, it takes probably 30 seconds to 1 minute to just load a page, although these are graphics rich pages like CNN. I'm assuming this is the poor GPU, or maybe it's just the app is not made for the watch. I'd be curious how this runs on a Gear or LG.
[Moto 360] ChrisNee1988:
It also drains battery like crazy so I ended up uninstalling the internet browser after a short test.
[Moto 360] ChrisAshton84:
Is it rendering on the phone and shipping over one image, or is it sending all the webpage data to the watch and rendering it there? In either case, that's a lot of data to ship over bluetooth. Graphics rich webpages could easily take that long just for the data.
[Moto 360] fer2503:
iFixit makes the teardown of moto 360. The processor is the OMAP3630. I don't understand why Motorola makes this decision :confused:

[Moto 360] kornklown69:
ill make a decision after nexus 6/X is released.... GOOGLE RELEASE A NEXUS WATCH!
[Moto 360] TheManii:
Every wear so far have roms made directly by goog, there's very little reason at this point for them to release it under the nexus branding as the 360/gear live/g watch are all nexii in everything but name. Even the fact the bootloaders are unlockable is likely due to this
[Moto 360] kornklown69:
Just like my stuff to match lol, I know its unlikely :P
[Moto 360] dewa_demonic:
3 years difference from the MOTOACTV, still using the same Processor.... Really Motorola??? :confused::confused:

I think i'll stick with the MOTOACTV a little longer until they launch the next gen with better hardware..
[Moto 360] dproldan:
Cool thing is that maybe we can use the 360's kernel to port Android wear to the MotoACTV! I'm waiting for the sources.
[Moto 360] Fight4Music:
The Moto Defy community is also waiting for the sources :cool:

Yea... That would be cool...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elixir.:
I have tried many roms in the past 1 month and have decided that i just like how the stock gs2 firmware looks and feels...

Except one thing,i want the on screen notifications like the one in "carbon" rom

Is it possible somehow to port that to stock firmware?or maybe someone has already did something like that?

And im not talking about the apk's you can find on the internet or in the appstore...i mean a proper port/mod.?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdawdy:
Phone is not rooted.

So i press the spinney thing on the battery doctor widget and it says "3 apps closed prolonged power by 34 minutes", perhaps with different numbers. How can i determine which apps were closed?

It appears that Android may be re-starting the same apps? So is power really being prolonged?

The battery remaining percent displayed on the widget is usually greater then the percent displayed in the app. It seems the app does not update the widget often enough. Is there a way that i can force the app to do the update?

Thank you,

Mick
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osvanberg:
I advise you to look in to Greenify instead of this app. With Greenify you get around the problem of Android restarting apps.

(sorry don't know the answers to your questions).
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rrgrrg:
if you read alot you will know all these ram-empting apps are useless and they consume more power as android will load all of the apps again once it knows it has free ram ahead so no absolute benefit ... as the guy said use greenify ..it hibernates your apps and that saves power :cowboy:

Which gerion of ftf are you flashed? Where you downloaded from? Some ftf file is come with carrier locked.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tech N You:
Make sure your phone is fully charged (minimum recommended value 70%). Now follow these steps below :

1) Connect your phone in MTP (Media Transfer Port) mode with your PC.

2) Open PC Companion and wait phone to be detected, after detection go to update option and click Repair My Phone/Tablet.

3) Leave the device until repair finishes.

Another method :

1) Flash 4.1.2 firmware from here Xperia SP 4.1.2

2) Flash it via Flashtool.

3) Extract the Kernel.sin from the stock FTF file (Android 4.3) you previously have downloaded.

4) Open Flashtool (By Androxyde) and then open tools->sin editior and select Kernel.sin where ever you extracted it.

5) Click extract data and wait.

6) Once you get the kernel.elf file rename it to boot.img.

7) Flash it as kernel via Flashtool.

8) Now select the stock FTF (Android 4.3) you downloaded and then before flashing look into right side you'll see an exclude option box.

9) Exclude kernel.sin and flash the FTF.

Check and see if any of the above methods work for you.

Hit thanks if I helped you. :)

I tried charging it and voila, the red notification light of death appeared. Mind you that I am using a newly installed OEM Sony Battery (used already for a month) on my phone as the previous one also died.

I was searching and all they say is that charge the phone then reset it.. tried that also, charged it all day then tried resetting, still no action.

Tried SUS, can't connect to phone, tried flashtool, also same thing.

Just when you thought this was for touchwiz roms only, I've managed to get this working for cm 11 stable build.

I've been tinkering with this for a bit longer than I should have. Special thanks to gharrington (3minit developer) and carl1961 for their extra time and help making this work for me.

Please note that I did not create this mod. I simply modified the systemui using the guide in the original thread linked below. All credit goes to the 3minit team!

So here's the deal:

I made this for my own CM 11 stable rom build. I have not released the rom because it's going to be part of a different project I'm working on. However this will work fine on the official cm 11 stable build.

It may or may not work on nightlies and other cm based roms. Worst case your systemui will fc on you. In which case all you need to do is dirty flash your rom.

This mod allows you to choose from over 1000 battery styles from different users. With a single click you can download a battery style and set it as your new battery! Storage is not affected as the app only downloads the images you use!

Please report if it's working on other cm based roms. But DO NOT complain if it doesn't. That means you didn't read the op in which I'm telling you that this is only meant for CM 11 NOT AOKP, PA OR OTHER ROMS!

I ask that you all check out the original 3minit thread by gharrington and say thanks. We wouldn't have this without him. The thread is here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2799958

VERSION 2 Changelog:

- now user can select from "colorable" batteries and make their own colors to match their theme

- nomedia file added to prevent images from being seen in gallery

Instructions:

1: Download zip

2: Make a nandroid because if you noob it up it's not my fault!

3: flash zip (cache wiping is not needed and pointless)

4: reboot and you will have a new battery and the 3minit app will be in your app drawer

Hope you enjoy these amazing batteries folks! I've been tinkering with this for too long!
