Sorry, I'm not able to do this and I doubt if anyone is...

AFAIK there's no cybershot mod for our 2011 devices working with KK.

I just posted OpenOTA to GitHub today for anyone who would like to download partial source code (Full source will be in the GitHub after Prototype is finished.)

About OpenOTA

OpenOTA is a project I started on 10/27/2014 that will hopefully change how users get OTA Updates. OOTA allows a developer to "Self-Host" their ROM's updates and also allow users to get them, over the air. A neat feature of OOTA is that the ROM Update does not need to be hosted on a web server you own, you can use d-h.st, mediafire, 4shared, or whatever hosting provider you like , it doesn't matter where!

Here is how it works: The user's ROM, on boot, will check for an update, if there is one, the user will be prompted to download. The prompt is once per boot, and once per OOTA app launch. When the user chooses to download, it will open the users browser to the download the update.

Why did I do this you might ask? To keep the apk file as small as possible.

Why integrate the download when we can just use the web browser that is built in?

This also allows developers with limited bandwidth use other hosting providers.

I hope some developers find this app very useful as I made it to be open to everyone!

Please let me know what you guys think, give me ideas, tell me where I can improve. :D

I currently use it in my Custom ROM AdvancedStock7 for the LG Optimus F3 from Virgin Mobile but the app itself is compatible with android 4.0+

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] wintrmute:
So I upgraded to a HTC TyTN last month, and I guess I should get rid of my Magician rather than leaving it lying around until it's totally outdated. (Like I did with my Nokia 6600, SonyEricsson T68, etc :)

I have an HTC Magician (originally sold as Orange SPV M500) which is network-unlocked, and running a very recent QTek firmware version. It has a 512 Mbyte SD card. I'm in London, UK. Would anyone be interested in buying it from me?

There's a slight catch, which is that the earphone speaker is a bit unreliable - cuts in and out. The main speaker (for speakerphone, games, etc) works fine. So you can use the included hands-free gear, or your own bluetooth headset for making calls.

So I thought it might suit a developer who wants a second phone to experiment upon?

(If this thread is off-topic, please forgive me - I had a quick scan around for a more appropriate section of the board to post in, but didn't spot any classifieds/trading area.)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SmileAsTheyDie:
Hello all. Recently i installed Liquid Smooth 3.2 on my droid razr maxx and i have been having a great time. My only issue is the limited app data (i was limited to 3GB at creation due to the version of safestrap i was running). I just upgraded to the most recent version of safestrap which allows higher than 3GB data partion. If i were to backup my ROM, delete the rom slot, recreate it with a bigger data partion and then restore via backup would that work or would there be issues due to the change in partion size?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] lanwarrior:
I originally had the 10.1 (2014) Wi-fi version. It is not rootable without tripping KNOX and it had horrible battery life.

I now got the LTE version (T-Mobile P607T) and after rooting with TowelRoot (KNOX 0) and disabling all the bloatware, I got GREAT battery life right out of the box! I charged my tablet 100% while it's off for the 1st time and now I got:

- Almost 24 hours since last charged

- Almost 5 hours of screen on time with LTE and Wi-fi both ON

- 15% remaining

This is AWESOME!! I am sure it will get better after subsequent use and charge.

Sorry for the excitement, but I got much better battery life than my Nexus 7 (2nd Gen)!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jazzmachine:
Same here man! Even with 3d gaming (which I've seen many posts complaining about that in particular causing "massive" drain). I do use Greenify, Unbounce, etc. I'm easily good for the full day with it fully charged. My perspective is relative though, as I upgraded from a Note 8, which burned close to 10% just rebooting! So IMO, the battery life on this tablet is excellent, and easily comparable to my heavily modded / optimized Note 3.

This, perhaps, deserves it's own topic (and after explaining the procedure at length, decided I should just post one :) ), but especially after flashing ROMS, kernels, etc., make sure to calibrate your battery correctly! I think those instructions are worthy of a new topic (the info's here, but spread all over the place). AFAIK, none of the calibration apps work nearly as well as this, which is kind of the "old school" method, but it works very well! So I'll post that up, and definitely would recommend checking it out... It took me a while to figure this out, but I did discover how to do this on a tablet (without a phone / dialer) so hopefully that will be helpful to many here :)

Edit: Rereading your post, I was wondering what method you used to debloat? I'm currently semi-debloated, running xKat and freezing many system apps in Titanium (without negative effect), but then I've encountered permissions errors uninstalling system apps via that app. Just wondering specifically what method you used to debloat. TIA!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johntuck77:
Hi everyone,

Is there a way (already) to have all apps in multi window like it was possible on the Note 3 with the mini window. I love the way they did the re-sizing of the windows on the Note 4 and would like to know if there is a way to re-size all the apps on the phone and not just the Samsung default ones.

Thanks for your help.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronj1986:
Yes there is my friend. Download the following apk from the play store. If you are rooted enable multi-window in exposed framework modules. Key me know if you have any problems or need further assistance with this.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OnSugarHill:
So when i got home from work/being out, I noticed my battery drained quickly. Before I got there, I believe I was at 81%. After about 20 minutes of eating/watching TV (not doing anything on the phone), I realized my battery had dropped to 77%. I'd never seen it change more than 1% with the screen being off, and this was only like 20 minutes of time. When I sleep, it turns 1-2% lower in 8 hours, but somehow it drained 4-5% in less than a half hour.

Sounds like it must be something wi-fi related. That's the only thing that changed, is I connected to wifi. It seemed as if there is an app that was syncing something, and is set to sync only when wi-fi is on. When I used to use Google+ for photos, it would automatically upload my pictures when I would get on a wi-fi connection.

Can anybody think of what app may have caused that?

[LG G Watch R] fer2503:
No tempered glass protection like glass.t from spigen for moto 360? Only plastic?
[LG G Watch R] dunjamon:
I can see this being a bit of a nightmare to get on as the screen is inset a bit. I imagine the bezel has been designed to prevent damage to the screen. I've had both a pebble and a g watch and haven't used a protector with either. They are both as new so far.
[LG G Watch R] seepage:
It is glass. I don't know if it is gorilla though
[LG G Watch R] alextdarling:
skinomi

is skinomi that good, worried about scratching my R watch
[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
Are you certain it is glass? Have you actually used one? I can't get LG to verify anything. They won't respond to my emails and g+ questions, the phone reps don't have any information, and their twitter is of no help:

@LGUSAMobile can you tell me what covers the screen of the G Watch R? Is it Gorilla Glass? Sapphire crystal? Plastic? Just glass?

And their tremendously helpful response was:

@[abqnm] Hi there, good question. It's the world's first P-OLED Display. Let us know if you have any further questions. :) ^DA

I even replied back asking again what covers the surface, and they just ignored me. I can't seem to get a straight answer from anyone about the bezel material for this watch. If it isn't Gorilla Glass or sapphire crystal, I'm out, no matter how much I like it. With how much LG is dodging this question, I am afraid the damn thing is really just plastic, like the "P" in P-OLED indicates (I know plastic refers to the substrate, but until they tell us what it is, I am going to just be that guy and assume the whole bezel is plastic).

The fact that they don't advertise Gorilla Glass 3 pretty much assures me that Gorilla Glass of any flavor isn't involved, but I would still like to know what is used. When I buy a dumb watch, I only buy watches with sapphire crystal bezels because I always end up scratching mineral crystal or even the hybrid sapphire coated mineral crystal bezels that go by various names depending on manufacturer. LG is trying really hard to make people not want to buy this watch it would seem.
[LG G Watch R] doki81:
my gut feeling on the watch face is really just a polymer.... i try knocking the watch face on my watch r..and it doesnt feel like glass....feel more like plastic~
[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
That's what I'm afraid of considering how evasive LG is being. I really like the looks of the watch (I like the 360 too--I was planning to get both) but if the GWAR doesn't have any sort of hardened glass like Gorilla Glass or sapphire crystal, it looks like I will have to wait for the next Android Wear device to come along. I can't justify paying $300 for something I am bound to scratch in two weeks time.

I guess I could look at tempered glass screen protectors, but I really shouldn't have to for a $300 device. Thanks for your reply.

i think i will get a normal screen protector from healing shield to apply on my watch r....better safe than sorry~
[LG G Watch R] seepage:
I own one. It sounds a bit like plastic when you tap it. I have an email from LG saying it is glass. Probably something like this.
[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
I hope so, but LG still won't confirm anything for me. I sent another round of emails, tweets and g+ questions, so let's see if they answer at some point today. Thanks though. That does make some sense. I just wish they would confirm it instead of hiding.

I just have a real problem with buying a watch when the company can't tell me what or if any scratch resistant glass is covering the bezel, and I have over a hundred watches. Every one of them has told me what the bezel was made from.

[LG G Watch R] doki81:
no matter it's glass or plastic..i have decided to get a screen protector for it :P
[LG G Watch R] dunjamon:
They're very secretive about the glass. Here's the reply I got off them:

Thank you for your email regarding the G Watch R.

I have had a look into this for you and unfortunately the G Watch R does not have Guerilla Glass on it like the original G Watch, as it sports a P-OLED screen. I do apologise if you were expecting a covered Guerilla Glass G Watch R, if you have any further questions then please don't hesitate to email back in using the 'More Questions' link at the bottom of this email.

Kind regards

[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
I mean really how hard can they try to evade consumer questions with such a vital question? I know LG is new to the watch game, but "what is the bezel material?" is the most fundamental question consumers want to know when buying a watch.

I just banged the face of my watch quite hard against the steel corner of a wall mounted boiler. It does not seem to be marked at all.:) Looking at it closely did lead me to finding out it has a plastic protector on the body.
[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
That sounds like a little bit of good news.

Did you do this by accident or were you testing it? lol

[LG G Watch R] crea78:
I work in retail stocking groceries and worried if the watch face with no screen protector would get scratched.

All my other watches I wear to work does this and without gorilla glass, afraid this might happen to.
[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
I wish I knew. I still can't get LG to tell me what is protecting the screen. I have tried twitter, g+, both the US and UK email contacts and the US phone support and none of them will respond or can tell me what the bezel is covered with and what its scratch resistance is like.

As for your other watches getting scratched, you need to buy better watches. Only buy watches with sapphire crystal bezels. You will pay a bit more, but you will never scratch it (unless you happen to be stocking diamonds). Cheaper watches use mineral crystal (basically just glass) that scratches really easily. The investment will be worth it since you won't have to replace them all the time.

Looks like its a plastic substrate:

[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
We already know it is a plastic substrate--that is pretty clear with the P-OLED or PLASTIC-OLED display tech. What isn't clear is what is on top of the display.

[LG G Watch R] doki81:
very good marketing article on p-oled for the pro of using it but avoiding the question of the hardness of this material...how easy this p-oled get scratch compare to glass~
[LG G Watch R] Hawke84:
if they haven't marketed it as scratch proof its not. it will be a good selling point if it is...
[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
No, but it would be nice to know what sort of material they used to protect the surface of the display and what sort of scratch resistance it employs. When all LG will say is it is a P-OLED display, it doesn't exactly instill consumer confidence for a device such as a watch that is usually subject to a fair but of abuse.

Even if they told us they are using the same flexible scratch resistant flexible glass that was used on the G Flex, we would have some idea of the durability. But their completed silence on the matter doesn't exactly inspire confidence and will be waiting indefinitely until we know for sure or the next great round Android Wear device is released.

[LG G Watch R] eckounlimited:
It has Gorilla Glass

Regarding to a trustful source (Lookup "mobilegeeks" "lg g watch r test" www_mobilegeeks_de/lg-g-watch-r-test/) the display IS covered with Gorilla Glass.

"Das P-OLED-Display ist durch seine Bauweise an sich schon recht flexibel und sollte dadurch besser gegen Schäden geschützt sein, als ein vergleichbares Display mit Glas-Substrat. Zusätzlich hat LG hier allerdings zusätzlich auch noch eine Lage aus Gorilla Glass darüber gepackt, so dass das Panel gegen Kratzer geschützt sein soll. Offiziell kommunizierte man dies zwar bisher nicht wirklich, doch auf Anfrage bekam ich eine entsprechende Bestätigung."

"The P-OLED-Display is because of its flexible constuction by design quite good protected against damage compared to glas-substrate displays. In addition LG packed a layer Gorilla Glas on top, so the display should be protected against scratches. This has not been communicated official in a broad way but on my request I got a confirmation on that."

(Sorry for my english. Tried my best to give an accurate translation.)

The source is a top tech blogger Sascha Pallenberg (Lookup Wikipedi, as I am not able to post links.).

My LGGWR just arrived today and I am not going to cover my display. My orange Pebble (plastic surface without any protection) has survived about 2 years without any noticable scratches. (Taking into account, it does not sports a touch screen, its chance to collect scratches is way less that the LG watch.)
[LG G Watch R] mitchellvii:
I seriously doubt this display is covered in Gorilla Glass. As a matter of fact, I doubt it is covered in glass at all. This is far more apparent in direct sunlight. The exposed surface looks like plastic and is a bit antiglare as nothing reflects off it.

I ordered an HD screen protector for this bad boy which should be here Monday. That being said, I accidentally gave the face a pretty good whack this morning on the edge of my kitchen counter just walking by and it seems undamaged.
[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
I'm inclined to believe it is either just a hard plastic or the same material as used in the G Flex.

I haven't purchased one yet, but got to play with one yesterday and it definitely did not have the characteristics of Gorilla Glass. Tapping the corner of a key onto the face didn't make the distinct sound of hitting glass, so I'm really doubting they used GG. It is something they cooked up on their own or just the same plastic substrate that the OLED is baked in cooked up into a lens. I didn't have permission to take a knife to it, so I couldn't test scratch resistance, but unless it is the material from the Flex (hard to tell in such a tiny area) I would be really worried about scratching this thing.

So, for now, I will not be buying one until it drops into the plastic watch territory (<$99). I will just wait for the next nice looking Android Wear device, as I'm sure there are bound to be many more.

Sent from my brain using human to phone transport technology.
[LG G Watch R] mitchellvii:
Here's the thing regarding scratching this. Screens get scratched from dragging something hard and sharp across it (grit, etc). Because of the bezel the chances of accidentally dragging something across it are small. Don't think scratching will be an issue unless you swipe with dirty fingers and that would scratch gorilla glass anyway.
[LG G Watch R] ABQNM:
When you have been wearing watches as long as I have, the "bezel" (technically on a watch the screen, or "crystal" is called the bezel, but I digress) makes little difference in preventing scratches. Before I started investing in good watches with sapphire crystal bezels, I scratched the hell out of many watches with recessed bezels such as Casino G-Shock and similar devices. Scratches will always find a way to happen even if you are most careful with them. Or at least this has been my personal experience. I don't live in a bubble though.
