Hi to all, after the replacement of the Display of my Mi2S, i've the following problems:

- Proximity sensor don't work, i had to download a component of WSM tool to disable it

-In the camera, the focus of near objects don't work.

I have exposed my problems in a group of Italian XIaomi users, and other two users that had replaced display of mi2s, have the same identical problems.

Someone knows how can we fix these annoying problems?

Thank You,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mIRChele:
Hey all, I have an I9505 with custom rom, which has support for NFC. However, the app I'm trying to use in order to pay using my phone (Vodafone Wallet) doesn't allow me to add a credit card because it asks me for a phone software upgrade (for security reasons I think), which I can't do since I don't have the stock rom, so I was wondering if there is a way (maybe with an xposed module, I don't know) to spoof another phone software version to certain apps in order to allow compatibility. If there aren't apps that allow that, I think it's a good idea to make one, if this is possible :p

What can I do to fake the ohone software version?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ahfunaki:
EDIT: 8525

I was just wondering if anyone has removed the actual printed logo off of the front of their 8525. If so, how did you do it?

I know you can use finger nail polish remover to take decals off of some things, but I just wasn't sure if it would be safe on the finish of the phone or not.

I'm interested to know...

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] LegolasTheElf:
Sugar cubes work well.. tape off ALL the areas you don't want to damage (screen, space between keys, etc..) and use a sugar cube. It's coarse enough to get the decal off, but, does not damage the phone.

Disclaimer: I've never tried this. I've seen it work (Google is your friend).

Look here: http://www.instructables.com/id/EFHU5V6TKYERIE2SMP/

It has pics of the process.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ahfunaki:
This will not work on the 8525. The only reason it worked on that MDA that the guy was using is because the logo was actually printed on metal. The 8525 logo is on plastic. It would damage the phone if you did that...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] trion:
Use some eraser gum, worked on my Nokia. The harder the gum, the better it works.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ahfunaki:
not a bad idea, might have to give that a shot...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] spiritofseth:
I actually did the sugar cube thing to my MDA and it worked PERFECTLY not a single scratch, I have been contemplating doing it to my 8525, it seems to be the same idea, the texture is the same as the one from my mda, im pretty sure they are the same material.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ahfunaki:
I'm telling you right now, if you try and do it on your hermes you will scratch it all up.

the logo on the mda is was printed on metal, the logo on the 8525 is printed on plastic. it will not work with a sugar cube. now if the logo was printed on the metal strip right below where it's at, the sugar cube method would probably work...

I've attached pictures to show you the difference in texture.

I hope someone finds a way to successfully remove the Cingular logo....I was thinking some sort of paint thinner????
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] motionmind:
Is it really bothering people THAT bad to have the logo there? I have yet to have the logo interfere with a call or keep me from being able to do anything else I wanted to do within reason with the pda itself.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ahfunaki:
thank you for that completely useless post.

i hope you feel better about yourself now...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] motionmind:
So you don't have an aswer for me as to why you want the logo gone so bad then? An intelligent person might have said something like "it would help clean up the lines of a beautifully designed device" or "I don't want people to know that I have a competing phone since I work for company X".
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ahfunaki:
And I could say the same for you...

An intelligent person wouldn't have posted in this thread if they didn't have any real contribution to what the thread pertains to.

And I wasn't aware I needed to announce the reason why I want to remove the logo, sorry.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] RemE:
Because the Logo is printed on metalic painted plastic, you will have to be very careful else the metalic look will be marred. I have used a Q-tip moistened with a mild solvent like Goo-Gone or paint thinner to gently scrub away logos printed on plastic. You have to be slow and patient and stop before the base paint gets soft. Maybe do a little then let it dry some. Be very sparing with the solvent.

Good Luck.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] kalibar:
I'm retardedly interested in removing the printed logos from my 8525 as well -- if any of you guys do end up figuring out how to do this perfectly, please drop some knowledge on us.

As a side note, if anyone knows where/how to get some small tasteful "HTC" or "HTC Hermes" decals that could be applied to replace the 8525 logos, that would be pretty hot too.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Nghiem:
The only reason I can think of removing Carrier logo and replace it with s/th else (aka HTC, TyTN) is to mark up the phone sales value! It is similar to ppl who put AMG and M logos on their Mercedes and Bimmer.

I recently started developing android apps and games. I wanted to share my game with u all and gain some tips and more to improve my skills and the app. The Game is working on all Android devices and versions. My first Game is a arcade Game which is as simple as FlappyBird but has totally different mechanics.

I hope u like it and can give me some tips to improve the app.

That so easy to play. Tap to jump and last as long as you can.

Forget FlappyBird and SwingCopter. This Game is more fun and will drive you crazy.

Be better then your friends and show off with your Highscore in the global leaderboards.

[Samsung Gear VR] loaferkan:
Pretty much the title say it all...i want to know if the VR would support apps such as Youtube, or other movies app that we use on Note 4...or even play our own movies that are stored on our Micro SD CARD?
[Samsung Gear VR] mdude04:
Based on the countless hours I have spent reading through every minute detail I could find about Gear VR, here is what we know that you will be able to do and not do with the unit out of the box:

CAN:

- Play back your own standard-format (MP4, etc) movie files within the immersive Oculus Cinema

- Download and play VR games from the proprietary game/app store; these have been curated specifically by Oculus

- Browse photos that have been pre-installed with the Gear VR, or your own photos. At the Oculus Connect conference, Oculus confirmed that it was possible to have 360-degree viewing of pictures taken from the Ricoh Theta camera (and thus, likely, other 360-degree user-generated images as well)

- Play Oculus-curated 3D movies, including stereoscopic 3D 360-degree live-action and animated experiences

- Use either 3.5mm wired headphones or a Bluetooth wireless headset to listen to audio. Otherwise, audio will be played through the device's external speakers.

CAN NOT (YET):

- Use apps on your phone that are not part of the Gear VR ecosystem (including texting, calling, etc)

- Watch your own 3D movie files that are encoded in side-by-side/over-under, etc. Preliminary reports show that there is no way to denote or recognize these files as such, meaning the Oculus Cinema will treat them as 2D movies and leave the original split video presentation intact.

- Access content that was purchased outside of the Gear VR ecosystem (Google Play movies, Vudu movies, etc, etc)

The Oculus team got low-level access to the actual hardware of the phone so they have manipulated it in ways that no other software maker can. That being said, it is only common sense that down the road there will be access to services like Netflix, whether that is a custom Gear VR experience or some way to seamlessly integrate the existing Netflix Android experience. The same will surely go for any number of other apps. For now, though, you will only be able to experience the stuff that Oculus has designed for you to experience.

Let me know if I've missed anything!
[Samsung Gear VR] jonstatt:
Note however that I would not recommend watching a movie this way. The field of view is larger than your field of vision. This means that you cannot see everything on screen at the same time and will mean movie watching is fatiguing. This is why alternatives like the Sony HMD units have an optimum "cinema" field of view angle. I am sure it will be initially impressive to watch like this, but I think watching a whole movie could be challenging.
[Samsung Gear VR] totorinox:
Look at this. It seems like watching a movie is a great experience.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtRSOUbpDgM
[Samsung Gear VR] mdude04:
You are incorrect. With the Gear VR, you also get a "cinema" experience. You watch the video from in the middle of a virtual movie theater (or other custom environments), so there will be no fatigue and you will very much be able to see everything on screen at the same time.
[Samsung Gear VR] loaferkan:
I think mdude04 make sense. I'm sure that the Gear VR makers wouldn't allow us to watch movies directly from our own apps, or a matter of fact youtube...but who going to stop these great Devs here who can has turn our phone the future phones...the things that Samsung or any other company come out with, we already have experienced it long before...lol

I'll try to invest in it, until I see the Devs has worked on custom rom or software for it.
[Samsung Gear VR] jonstatt:
Before you start saying I am "incorrect", let's just get things a bit clearer here as your post wasn't very clear on the "how" this might be done. The main issue with the Oculus Rift which I have tried BTW for movie is its 110 degree field of view. The Samsung has a FOV of 96 degrees which is much too large for watching a movie. In comparison the Sony HMD-T3W which I also have, is 45 degrees. 45 degrees is considered the optimum movie viewing experience, sitting in the middle row of a large theatre screen. 96 degrees would be like sitting in the front row, which for most people is not a comfortable place to sit. So the only way that Samsung could reconcile this is to not use the whole resolution of the Note 4 display, which woudn't be great, as to my understanding each eye is not receiving a 1080 image to start with (as the 2560x1440 display is chopped in half, with half going to the left eye and half going to the right).

In discussions on various forums, there is a "general" opinion that the glasses you wear for playing virtual reality games or experiences needs a big FOV so you feel you are actually there, whereas movies need a smaller one. This typically means owning two pairs of this type of glasses, or compromising resolution so that the movie is not taking up the full screen area.

So could you explain more about how Samsung handles this?

I will be getting the Gear VR anyway, but for the hopefully stellar VR experiences.
[Samsung Gear VR] MasterTentacles:
The Gear VR is going to ship with Oculus Cinema, which allows you to watch your own content in a virtual movie theater. It simulates that "Perfect Seat" experience of being in a movie theater. It effectively fills your field of vision, no more, no less, and (if you want) allows you to move your head around the theater and look around.

In terms of video quality, you're not going to lose anything. It only plays back 2D content, yes, but this allows the use of interlacing to maintain a full 1080i image. Essentially, the sum of the parts to make the whole.

If 3D playback was added in down the road, you would lose out on the quality more than likely, but it all depends on how it's implemented.

John Carmack (CTO of Oculus, and lead on the Gear VR project with Samsung) even mentioned that he's watched the entire Matrix trilogy on his, and he said it was incredible.
[Samsung Gear VR] joexda75:
HI,On the contrarytThe way it is implemented in VR Headset,there is no way you would lose in quality in 3D playback since for 2D playbackyou already sending twice the same image for each eye hence the quality has already been lowered(You only see half of the display)

If there was a single lense instead of the 2 at the moment the whole screen would be entirely visible and you would have a 2D Screen much larger and with much better resolution...

And maybe in this case i believe screen door effect would be even less visible.

IF you have Side by Side (SBS or TTB) videos there is no reason the experience would be less than a 2D film providing Oculus Cinema is

able to natively manage that 3D SBS format.
[Samsung Gear VR] mdude04:
Yep. And in fact, looking through Oculus's newly released developer documentation, it is in fact possible to watch 3D videos in the Oculus Cinema from day one. It looks like you either need to follow some kind of naming convention when importing your SBS content into the micro SD card, or place it into a specially designated "3D" folder. That will give the Gear VR the information it needs to recognize that it is a 3D video, and it will be rendered on the virtual movie screen accordingly.

Just another awesome reason to be excited about Gear VR! :)
[Samsung Gear VR] Bruce lee roy:
Wonder if the movies referred to were watched in 1080 or 2k resolution...
[Samsung Gear VR] Powerslash:
I think John Carmack said the resolution of the video shown in the oculus cinema is 720p.

I honestly can't wait to get the Gear VR. I in a lot of ways looking forward to it more than I did the Note 4 itself.

[Samsung Gear VR] awesomista:
is this different than oculus ?

or more or less the same ?

these 2 looks futuristic
[Samsung Gear VR] Powerslash:
The Gear VR has a better display than the Oculus Rift DK2, lower latency and no wires. The Dk2 has wires but is connected to a PC and therefore you have better looking graphics but you would also need a more powerful PC to use it wiithout judder and high FPS.

The DK2 has besides Headtracking also positional tracking, the Gear VR does not have positional tracking yet but most likely the next version of the Gear VR will. But when you buy additional STEM packs or STEM controllers from sixense, then you also already get positional tracking with the first version of the Gear VR.
[Samsung Gear VR] awesomista:
mindblown......

too hard to understand hahaha
[Samsung Gear VR] Powerslash:
Both devices can do headtracking that means, you can look around 360° in a virtual world.

Positional tracking what the Oculus Rift DK2 can do with help of a special camera mounted to the pc and the Gear VR with additional controllers/packs means that you can also lean to the left/right and front/back in the virtual world.

For the Gear VR you will need the Galaxy Note 4 to run it and for the DK2 you will need a beefy PC.

The Gear VR has a higher resolution display, lower latency means that you look around with less lag/judder but when everything is optimized on the PC then it should perform similarly and you have no wires, so you can use the Gear VR on your couch, in bed, on a plane, in a hotel and easier showcase it to family and friends without having to bring along your PC, camera and cables.
