Im wondering something

So i have connected my tablet like this in the car

[IMG="Wiring"]http://static.squarespace.com/static/5335aadce4b0ff9f7f2da4af/t/53554b75e4b0dd001185d562/1398098815432/wiring%20diagram.png?format=1000w[/IMG]

When i give the car just accessory power, there is a lot of static sound coming from the speakers. However when i turn on the car, the static is gone (atlas i think, its a bit harder to hear with the engine running)

Is this normal? What can i do get rid of the static when i just have the ignition to accessory power (not given power to the engine)

My amp behind the tablet has about 70% volume on. then i control rest from tablet. If i turn down the volume on the amp to 50%, the static sound is quieter but its still there. Do i need to change out cables? Remove the ground loop isolator? Can the problem come from the white and yellow cable thats coming from the jack?

Wouldn't it be better to just get a pair of regular RCA to 3.5mm jack there

If you're rooted, you can probably do without the USB OTG cable. You could use ADB to install packages and the shell (or a wrapper like this — worked well for me a few months back) to control the screen. This might also be useful if your screen is dead.

There is a new specific xbmc for android that comes preconfigured with the most important repositories for those that really don't want to dabble with all of that kind of stuff. Just install and all the main plugins are automatically installed for you. You can find it here http://www.tvaddons.ag/tvmc-android/
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mailme45:
Is TVMC anything more than XBMC 13.2 with preconfigured settings? Seems redundant slightly because SPMC (version 13.3.2) actually contains fixes to XBMC 13.2 to enable hardware acceleration on more devices. With the Z Ultra specifically, under XBMC 13.2 official, even though hardware acceleration was enabled in the settings, it was not working. SPMC is built by official XBMC team members and contains "fixes" that were left out of the official spin for whatever reason. The settings are also mostly preconfigured, at least the defaults are different than regular XBMC, and for me at least, everything worked right away.

What are the possibilities for a phone that does not support MHL? (Oppo Find 5) I had the same idea after I broke my screen, but I am not sure now what to do. A mediacenter seemed great to me. A webserver is possible too, but I don't like how it won't use it's media capabilities anymore.

The device supports wireless screen (Miracast?) but I don't think that works great and I can't get it to work really.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mailme45:
Well, Android Lollipop will support Chromecast Mirroring, so if you are able to find a rom for that device when Lollipop makes its way around, that would work. There seems to be a good amount of development for that phone on XDA, so you might just need to wait it out a bit.

The mhl adapter is powered.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ShiversZN:
One port to rule them all

I have a Galaxy Note 2 with the same issue,

What is confusing me here is the phone has one MicroUSB into which three things need to plug into it

Power

OTG for Mouse and Keyboard

MHL adapter
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] adfurgerson:
1. The mhl is a Y cable with a male micro usb on the end of cord and a female at the end with hdmi that requires power which runs adapter and charges phone.

2. OTG is only for initial setup and will not be used with mhl ( OP states this is for screens that will display but not respond to touch) after setup control will be via a second device using yatse or another remote control app.

3. See #1.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] MunkinDrunky:
This thread is great i ened up doing this very thing after destroying the digitizer on an s3 a while ago (I was one unlucky sap to try replacing a cracked screen) and the resultof having a usless phone was made better by having a perminant xbmc device connectd to my tv-way better than satellite or cable;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] okie03:
Awesome!

I have a few devices that I keep around. Note 2, galaxy S2, nexus 1 (and my retarded/retired phones iphone 5S, ipad and blackberry playbook). I will definitely give it a try and let you guys know how it goes.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kyuubisiddhanth:
Have you tried on your S2?

Although I've touch screen working, but my gorilla glass is broken. I dont know some are saying that they've to replace whole assemble costing $125 here. While some people on the internet say that it can be done and on ebay I saw front panel(Gorilla) being sold in India.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SH_G:
I just came across this thread after my own experiences with getting this going yesterday! I have an LG Optimus G (E973) with a cracked digitizer, and I was about to buy an Android box, when I realized this phone would be more powerful, and have more features, than anything I could buy in the $100 range.

I made an OTG cable myself. Very easy to do, all you need is a microUSB cable male end, and a USB female end... except, problem #1, I found out my phone doesn't support OTG power. So I had to turn it into an OTG Y-cable so it can receive power (and charge the phone) simultaneously. Then, problem #2, my kernel doesn't support OTG. I wasn't able to figure this out. So I looked for another solution.

Maybe I could install VNC or one of those ADB viewers? Hook up my computer... problem #3, not authorized for adb. Can't authorize without touchscreen. (I later discovered the device keys are stored at /data/misc/adb/adb_keys, and could have added my computer in recovery.) Went to the gf's house and found my old MacBook Air, turns out that one was authorized!

Great! I'm in... now... after fiddling around trying to get it to work in Windows and OSX, problem #4 neither VNC or ADB viewers worked. I could SEE the screen, but interaction did nothing.

Eventually, I decided to just manually run touch events from the adb shell, a la adb shell input swipe 0 0 0 1280 to pull down the menu. Armed with this, I hacked together a script with JavaScript and PHP to have a web interface I could interact with my phone through. It's SLOW as hell at 768x1280 (max 1fps, I'd say), as it uses screenshots.

If anyone is interested, here's the script I made. https:// gist.github.com/shahyar/8d24815b54b8ca1c1d9c

...It didn't end there. I decided now that I have it working, I'll reset the data. Problem #5: I forgot that this also resets debug to off. I had to calculate, using a ruler, where to swipe and tap to enable developer mode, and then enable USB debugging. I wrote an init.d script which did this.

Now, I'm just waiting for my MHL cable and Bluetooth keyboard. Let's hope those go a little better than how the rest of this adventure did.

Screen cracked and not usable

I have a further issue in that my screen is cracked and I can't see what's happening on the screen.

Any thoughts on how to set it up in this case?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] themanuelperson:
So this is a great idea, except that it doesn't work for any other apps, since I do most of my watching on Netflix and HBO and I can't figure out a way to control the phone outside of Kodi.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyuubisiddhanth:
Hello Prowd G3 Owners,

How are you all?

I was wondering to buy this beautiful phone, but I thought to ask you owners two things which are bothering me very much.

1. Battery Issues. Presently I use S2 and will be switching to G3, If I am getting better battery backup. i dont know, I have read mixed views about battery from websites, so I wanted your personalized views on battery. My usage = When I dont use, I rarely picks up the phone, just to check text messages. But When I use it, I make sure the usage is heavy(Games mostly, or hours of chatting, minimal browsing though).

So kindly assist in this matter.

2. Will there be any need of ROM changing? Presently I am using CM11 on my s2 as I was fed up with touchwiz(yuck),

Even if your answer is yes, then I still not see any development in this sector as compared to other competitors?

3. If you had the opportunity to choose any other phone, what would that be (with similar g3 specs, you can choose g3 also :p)?

4. Does Quickcircle case provides impact protection?

5. Does LG causes any hassles if you want to replace your damaged screen under one-time screen replacement scheme?

I thank you in advance,

Neeraj.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordLugard:
If you can find a good price on it, go for it.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] if4ct0r:
1. I have a similar use case as yours, and I've never had any issues with battery so far. I get through a day pretty easily with screen on times of 5-6 hours which is good enough.

2. Stock ROM with minor root based improvements is quite decent with not much lag. I've used Touchwiz before and I find LG stock UI much better than Touchwiz. Ofcourse, fully functional CM & AOSP would be far better and I plan to switch to it immediately when available. The bootloader has only just been bypassed so ROM dev will kick up soon.

3. HTC One m8 or Nexus 6 (depending on how big it actually feels on hand). But I had that choice with M8 while going for the G3 so that's my take on it.

4. Yes and No. Depends on where the impact occurs. The cutout on front leaves that area of screen damage prone but the back is pretty well covered. A little less than a proper case though since the Quick Circle case essentially replaces the back cover.

5. Not sure about that. Thankfully I've not had to deal with them regarding this & hopefully I won't have to.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyuubisiddhanth:
Thank you.

Here prices at online retailers is around 34k after all discounts. That's best in terms of spec/cost ratio.

Also LG India giving free 6 month insurance i guess, circle case and discount on lg g watch worth 10000 INR.

Also can you please post your gaming experience in words, or any performance grudge you hold against g3.

I know no phone is perfect, but I'd like to weigh my options here.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordLugard:
As for gaming, no complaints here. Handles anything i've thrown at it, Leo's Fortune, Boxtrolls, Manuganu, Skyforce, to name a few.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] if4ct0r:
1. Absolutely no problems with gaming performance wise on the G3. The only issue is that is gets heated up if you're playing a games with the brightness cranked up. Personally, I play games at ~50% brightness which is good enough and doesn't heat up as much.

3. Same here. 801 definitely won't get outdated anytime soon, but since you're picking up a new device at full price and planning to keep it for 4 years I'd suggest you wait a bit to get a feel for the N6 atleast before making a decision. As for the M8, yeah I know where you're coming from. I had to decide between the M8 & the G3 too and I went for the G3 mainly because of the much better design at a larger screen size. Although durability wise the M8 will definitely handle some rough usage better than the G3.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyuubisiddhanth:
Yea, I was thinking the same but N6 is approximated to cost ~42K INR. While G3 is ~8k less.

My first bike costed 49k. So I dont want to go beyond 35k for a phone as of now. I hope you understand my conundrum.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyuubisiddhanth:
Is there any real user review of the device as whole. (Not of tech sites) on youtube or blogs??

Thanks for help again.

[Moto 360] bfrye26:
So I am looking to put on the metal band for the Moto 360. Have people sorted out how to stop the cracking on the back due to the band? Is there a mod we can do to ensure this does not happen. Perhaps modify the pebble steel to limit it hitting the part of the plastic. I would love to hear peoples ideas on the matter.
[Moto 360] Sfkn2:
You might want to read the long thread about pebble bands. This has been a part of that discussion.
[Moto 360] bfrye26:
I saw them, some people are talking about a mod that is needed to work with people that have small wrists. The issue is I can not find people outlining the mod they did
[Moto 360] Agent.:
There is no mod for the pebble steel band. That post that you saw was about the Trufol band which is made for the pebble steel. That individual simply removed the thickest links on the end in order to make it fit.

Generally speaking your options are to either mod the Moto 360 by removing the tabs inside of where the band is attached to the watch or to modify the band so that it can work around the tabs. The standard Pebble Steel band fits on the watch without modification but puts you at risk of cracking, but most if not all bands do.

I used this guide. After finding out my model is not compatible with firewater to S-OFF and not wanting to pay for sunshine, I had to use OTAs to update the firmware. You don't need to delete root access but you need to flash stock recovery back to use the OTA update. Its removes root access anyway but SuperSU is still installed.

I do think you need to unlock the bootloader to gain root through custom recovery as you said.

I have done everything correctly to the best of my knowledge. Now i did a little troubleshooting and found out that my one m8 is recognized by adb when the phone is booted up and in the OS but when I go to the bootloader by typing "adb reboot bootloader" and it goes to bootloader and i type the command to get the token is says waiting for device again so then I typed adb devices and ithe phone is not recognized.
