There may be apps that provide Walkie Talkie like functionality over Wifi, but I think you need to distinguish what you are doing over wifi, bluetooth, and cellular. I'd go with one of these. You might even be able to setup some kind of mesh-based network using wifi - depending on the area you are trying to cover.

iDen and other carrier based PTT solutions are based on connectivity to cellular networks, and won't help you here. Additionally, most GSM networks are not outfitted with native PTT functionality. You are best working with Local Area Networks (LANs, like WiFi) or Personal Area Networks (PAN, like bluetooth)

WiFi and Bluetooth operate on spectrum which is unlicensed and available for public use - with some restrictions, such as power output and the like. Anything you could coax out of WiFi or Bluetooth should be fine.

Cellular, on the other hand, is an entirely different breed. Cell networks are generally regulated and licensed by relevant government authorities. Trying to setup your own cell towers is likely illegal in most countries without licensing or regulatory approval - with a few exceptions, like carrier sponsored micro cells. That would include tampering with the cellular radios in most devices.

Yes,,, the legal issue is something I had not yet considered and you make some important points.

It is likely that even if I find the information on the project I mention above I will not be able to do anything other than learn a little from it, that's OK.

You mention IDEN as being carrier based, as far as I can tell IDEN is one of the few that is not.

From my previous quote

There is more info on this at this site .wikipedia.org/wiki/MOTO_Talk ( need to make more posts before I can give a link ).

I do however note that some carriers do not allow this feature to be used, or limit its use.

MOTO Talk also works only on some specific Motorola phones, reading between the lines there seems to be some hardware as well as software that is unique to these models.

I'm most interested in the open source project ( I think it was open source ) that I read about some years ago, perhaps it is on SourceForge?

I have trouble finding a useful search string for Google, any suggestions?

Hi is there a Password Manager that can sync with Mac OS X. I checked out eWallet and it only sync with Win OS, SplashID only syncs with Win PC as well. SplashID has a Mac OS X desktop client but it only syncs with Palm OS. Anyone knows an app that can sync my P3600 with Mac OS X?

Thanks
[P3600 General] Allsop:
I use "Missing Sync" with my Trinity in OSX without any problems.
[P3600 General] Aero:
Yes it does, too bad it does not sync with any password manager that I looked at (wallet, 1passwd, keychain, etc...) SplashID has a Mac OS X desktop client but it only syncs with Palm.
[Asus Padfone X and S] dorj1234:
Hi, thanks for reading.

Looking for ideas - my keyboard dock won't pair with the phone anymore. It worked fine so far ..

I already tried:

1. Rebooting the phone, restarting the keyboard

2. In the Bluetooth settings menue - tried to manually detect. The keyboard is not showing on the available device

3. Bluetooth is working - my car speaker playes nice with the phone

4. The blue light on the keyboard blinks for 10 seconds, according to the manual this means it's "reconnecting" but nothing happens

Ideas ? is there a way to "reset" the keyboard ?

Thanks in advance !

I can say "Ok, Google. Navigate to McDonald's". The phone show "routing...", and my phone is TURNED ON. The phone start the Map app, provide navigation, and the screen remain ON... through the ENTIRE navigation.

Problem:

1). My phone is in the pocket. I will keep accidentally pressing the screen and all the button in the Map app in the phone

2). This waste battery BIG TIME.

Anyway to turn off the phone screen? I have a Note 3 if that makes any difference.
[Moto 360] matt99017d:
You can use tasker. Set it up so when your maps program opens the screen automatically turns off after a specific amount of time. IE: 10 sec 20,30 sec......etc.
[Moto 360] lanwarrior:
But this will affect ALL the navigation operation, no?

Meaning, if I use navigation in car, I DO want the screen to stay on. I was hoping the Android Wear app won't turn on the phone screen for navigation.

Does it work on stock (rooted) 4.1.2 rom? And does it make the navigation bar any smaller or it's still huge?

Running Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit

just upgraded from a Windows XP system to this, and now i cant get fastboot to work. ADB works no problem, but when i run fastboot devices, it doesnt do anything and goes back to having me type in a command

i.e

c:\dev\sdk\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot devices

c:\dev\sdk\sdk\platform-tools>

ive googled beyond belief, ive tried everything from the sdk to wugfresh toolkit and cannot for the life of me get it to work. Any ideas?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MHousos:
This happened to me actually, and it turns out that I didn't hit "Allow" (or something to that effect) on the prompt while it's connected. It took me awhile to see that :p I'm not sure if that's your issue as well, though.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Remove all existing device drivers and the device itself from device manager then go to general > sticky thread and follow the adb and fastboot thread to install everything properly
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeliton lord:
I believe the prompt you are talking about is for 'ADB' since fastboot does not give you a prompt
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I'm not talking about any prompts.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MHousos:
It's the USB Debugging prompt that comes up on the device. Looks like this :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
As the other guy said, that's for USB debugging which is an android only setting. . Only ADB works in android so this isnt relevant
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MHousos:
Now that you mention it, that's correct. In that case, starting from scratch would probably be best, in my opinion.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Yeah I agree with that.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeliton lord:
For some reason it didn't post my other part of the response where I said 'I tried the sticky and deleting all my drivers under the device manager and still a no go'

Not sure why it didn't post, apologies

Edit: actually it did post it, if you look at the quote for some reason it but it in the gray box

-_-
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Oh you wrote it in my quote.

Well once you've deleted the drivers (that's delete device AND drivers, not just device), ran the 15 minute adb and fastboot installed and reinstalled the naked USB driver. Come back to us with whatever errors you're getting now.

Don't forget to be in the bootloader when you do all that.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeliton lord:
Tried and fastboot still does the same thing

It installs as 'android boot loader interface'

Here's a serious question, do the USB ports matter for fastboot? I have all USB 3.0 on my computer now

[MENTION=2872010]rootSU[/MENTION]
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You're really not giving me the feedback I require to help you so this is becoming difficult.

I do assume you know you MUST be booted into the bootloader for fastboot and fastboot drivers to work. please confirm you understand this.

Yes the port matters as does the cable. It must not be faulty, try changing it.

Are you following the links in my "adb and fastboot. what is it?" thread?

I am going to update it slightly, to make it more obvious.

Here is the thread:

http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/noob-read-adb-fastboot-how-hep-t2807273

Please go through the install section fully. Ensure you do remove existing drivers as suggested. Your device should show up as "Google Nexus 4 bootloader interface" is you have installed drivers correctly AND you are booted into the bootloader.

If your drivers show as correct after this, please visit the troubleshooting connections thread that is also linked in my above thread.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeliton lord:
I followed the exact thread that you provided, I deleted every and all devices and drives related to google or android, I then rebooted the computer, installed the drivers and adb is still working just fine, but when I boot my phone into boot loader mode, it does not work, when I type in 'fastboot devices' it does not show me the words 'list of attached devices' like it normally would regardless if I was in boot loader mode or not, BC if I wasn't a device just wouldn't show up

Like I said, I had all of this working on my windows XP computer but cannot for the life of me vet the fastboot commands to work at all on windows 7. And just for trial and error purposed, I use virtual box to boot into ubunutu and build Roms, and fastboot DOES work in Ubuntu but it does NOT work in windows 7
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Then I already told you what thread to read next. Good luck

By the way, "adb devices" shows "list of attached dwvices", even if no devices connected but does not list a device. "Fastboot devices" lists a BLANK line if no devices is connected, as you can clearly see from my thread

Just trying to prevent you chasing a red herring. The fact fastboot doesn't say "list of attached devices" is entirely normal. The only issue is it doesn't see your device attached. Change ports, change cables, but its probably your windows OS at fault. Read the troubleshooting thread

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WendyB87:
So my phone keeps freezing alot when I make a call or try to answer calls or hang up and sometimes it even freezes on the lockscreen and it will be like that for a few mins it's really annoying.... Anyway my question is if I decide to do a hard reset(which is a factory reset right?) will I still keep my root? I rooted using towelroot or do I have to do it again? And do I have to unfreeze any apps I froze using titanium backup?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuqitao:
i'm not very sure about this. but probably it's because of the root? I cannot root my phone (D855, V10i) with towelroot. And when i tried the string method to root my phone with towelroot, it freezed my phone a while. And when I scanned my phone with CM security, it showed an exploit security problem (towelroot). I'm not sure which software version are you running, but i guess the updated phone has fixed the towelroot problem, and probably it's related to your problems. I would suggest you root your phone with a different tool (such as PurpleDrake like I did) no matter if you have a hard reset.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GTCC:
You could also revert back to stock and unroot at the same time using the LG pc suite. Then root with another method like Stumproot.

Ok, so who's spotted the Note 4 yet? Best Buy and Future Shop both list it in their flyer, but you call the store and they don't have a clue :eek:

Expansys.ca doesn't have pricing or delivery dates yet.

Anyone else find this elusive beast? :D
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
waiting to it too....i"ve checked through the web...and found that note 4 is sheduled for oct 3...however it probably just for pre-order only......since its expected for mid-october in U.S.. guess it gonna be around the same here too!!!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
Oct 3rd for Canada? I don't think so. Most of the rest of the world still has it scheduled for mid-October. I think we'll be lucky to get it then.

Futureshop this morning and the guy I spoke to said that they won't even have display models on show until the day before launch - he said they even did that for the iphone 6's.

Hey guys, I work at a telecom company in Canada and we have a launch date for the Gear Live on october 2nd. We usually launch the watch with a smartphone so I am assuming that the release date will be on the 2nd or 3rd.

This would be awesome, but still seems like speculation. Crossing my fingers though ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
Just got an email from Expansys.ca about my pre-order... $849 for the Note 4... I think that's too high and I may hold off on it. When US carriers are selling it outright for $649, I just can't bring myself to paying $850.

Has anyone else found better prices?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
Well... things escalated quickly.

They said the Note 4 would be shipping no later than this Thursday (Oct 2nd), but when they confirmed my order, it ended up being CDN$933 + shipping and tax, which put it close to $1100. I don't feel that any phone is worth that much. I cancelled my order and will be holding off for now. :(
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greatg:
Expansys is now showing the pre-order price of 999.99! Way too much!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
That's pretty outrageous. I'm looking back at my Note 2's invoice and I paid $800 form them with express shipping and taxes included - two years ago. There's no justification for such a high price on the Note 4. But I have a feeling that they've artificially inflated that price - once it's in retail stores, they'll drop it quickly. I was just hoping to get it sooner, but not for a few hundred dollars more!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brava27:
Can we just purchase in the USA and unlock here?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqman69:
Be careful

I strongly suggest you make sure the model supports the LTE frequencies here in Canada.

The canadian model is sm-n910w8 and that's the one to get.

The Expansys one is probably the sm-n910s which is the international model and therefore LTE will be limited and not even work in the USA (AT&T).

Just get one from the big 3 (telus, rogers and bell).

You must get it with a plan but that doesn't matter, just go through with it and cancel 5 seconds after. You will NOT pay cancelling fees. Then you unlock the phone with whatever service you want.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
I'm interested in getting the phone outright through Bell. Do you always have to get it with a plan? What a hassle. I'm use to buying unlocked phones, so this makes no sense to me. LOL
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
just be aware.....

in fact the sm-n900a and 900t wich are at&t and T-Mobile variant gonna work perfectly here...my former optimus g pro wich only at&t brought this model in north America was working perfectly on robellus since these carrier are using the same frequency....except for the newly 700mhz here in Canada wich in U.S.A they use already since awhile...personally I"m gonna wait for the 900w8 since they should be invailable in same time...

in fact the T-Mobile variant is even better since it would work on wind and videotron......

if you are already with bell...and want to keep your plan...you just have to buy it outright....however if your not with them...you"ll have to go with them with a plan... otherwise they will not sale you the phone...samething with any provider by the way....
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
I'm with Virgin, but they are basically Bell, so whatever Bell sells will work with Virgin - I really just want to avoid signing up for a plan, cancelling, and all that nonsense. I just want to buy and phone and set it up. :rolleyes:

If Bell won't sell the phone, what are my options? Go with an unlocked non-Canadian LTE model?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
virgin didn't sell the note 3...and it gonna probably the same with the note 4....your best bet is either your buy a U.S variant (at&t or tmo) or the Canadians variant 900w8 wich is the same then the 900a (at&t variant) on kijiji ad or ebay.....the us variant gonna cost about the same here with the custom fee and shipping+currency....
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
Hmm. Never heard of getting an AT&T or T-mobile phone from the states and using it up here. I don't really feel comfortable with that, since it would likely be a pain to get warranty service for it, no?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
if you worry about the warranty issue...then buy a Canadians variant.....my last two phone where u.s variant and didn't have any problem with them....and they where rooted of course....it depend how much your a geek? lolllll
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqman69:
I'm also with Virgin and I have a great plan which I don't want to loose.

None of the providers will sell you the Note 4 but like I said, use them, get a plan and cancel it.

Bonus: it kinda pisses them off, I like to tell them to their faces that's what I'm doing.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
So you go on a month-to-month plan (to get the phone outright), then cancel the plan right on the spot and keep the phone? LOL Do you lose anything? Like an activation fee or your first month payment for the plan?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqman69:
Well, there are no activation fees, but yes you will have to pay the first month. It's a small price to pay for getting the phone asap. Also, Telus will sell it for around 900$ and if you think about it, expansys is asking 1000$ + shipping, so it's not really that bad of a hit.

I blame Samsung, I want to give them my money but they don't make it easy.

However, their stunned stupid face, when I unlocked my Note 2 right in front of them while someone was explaining the "plan" is priceless (remember the menu unlock thing...).
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
So the Note 4 will be available in Canada next week, and we still don't have a price from retailers?

I went to Bell yesterday and they don't have a clue. Futureshop and Best Buy have no idea... what the hell is actually going on here? Do Sammy and friends want our money or not? Product quality aside, this is lame for a flagship device that's being pushed out early because the competition is stealing their thunder.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
Samsung canada and all the carrier here suck......not even a release date...at least in the U.S they have a release date since 2 week ago...and they can even playing with it on any best buy.......:mad:

Oh Canada................... however i"m still confident that it will be available in same time then the U.S.....it just gonna pop one of its morning...
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
I'm going to call Bell and Futureshop first thing on the 17th... if they don't have it then, I think we'll be SOL for a little while :eek:
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbzgod:
If your already with Bell you can buy whatever phone you want from them outright without any hassle at all. I think people just get confused and don't do their research much or just don't ask the right questions.

I'm on Bell and I buy my phones out right because I'm not wanting to give up my great plan.

The way Bell and Rogers play it out with new phones is you are only forced to change plans

if

your wanting to do it as an "upgrade" to get the phone discounted, but if your buying in full none of that matters and they can't deny you if your a Bell customer.

See what happens often is some of the individual stores wont get very many for their launch day stock, so they get grumpy when a new phone launches and people want to pay the full price because that is 'that much less inventory' that they will have a chance on getting new contracts and renewals for their commissions which they will have a higher success rate of doing when its for a brand new phone. So sometimes they try to give you the run around and see if they can 'trick you' into perhaps changing to a new plan and then trying to tell you how wonderful it is because you get the phone discounted blah blah blah.

At any rate when it gets closer to the launch day start calling around they will generally start to know then, it was the same for me when I wanted the Note 2, all the Bell stores didn't know a thing until it was a few days off from Samsung's stated day then they "suddenly knew" that it would arrive at their store either on that launch day or be a few days delayed as some area's/stores are given less priority.

Then once you've got the information on what store is going to get it just be sure to get in their sometime in the morning/afternoon and you should get one no problem if your worried about them selling out of their first batch.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
I'm with Virgin, but I understand that I can purchase the phone outright from bell on a month to month plan, cancel the plan and keep the phone. That's how I'll be doing it, since it will work with virgin.

I usually buy phones outright from online retailers, but I'm going to stick with a local shop for this one. It's silly that it has to be like this.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
Taking a monthly plan then cancel it.....why don't just buying the t-mobile variant online and unlocking it for few buck? It gonna be far less ass trouble...you just gonna pop your sim and go....the tmo and at&t variant gonna work perfectly....lte exc exc....the tmo have even no logo carrier on it....just like the canadians variant which is the same phone in fact
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqman69:
Well, that can be one way...

But, you will have to pay in US dollars, you will probably pay duty and you will most probably have a locked bootloader (AT&T). Also, the tmob version is usually less supported by 3rd party ROMs.

Taking a plan and cancelling it takes 5 mins. I am also with Virgin on a 60$/6GB which I don't want to lose.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
How would I get warranty service for an US phone in Canada?

I'd rather just keep it simple and pick it up from the store. At the most, I'll lose the first month of service (which they won't refund), but warranty and after service will be much easier to obtain.
