[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serg1:
Well, I've had this phone for a good 3 years, and a few weeks ago it fell out of my pocket and shattered the screen.

Yesterday I've managed to connect to it through adb, although most of the commands weren't working, just kept getting

/sbin/sh: su: not found

Today, however, I can't seem to connect to it, just keep getting "error:device offline"

So, I thought I'd update my SDK, turns out the one I was using was from 2012.

Updated, but the problem now is this:

error: device unauthorized. Please check the confirmation dialog on your device.

Of course, as it's a different adb instance, never been authorized. But, as I said, the screen and digitizer are both dead, so no chance of checking that confirmation dialog.

This new adb still works in recovery, so I've already pulled all my files through there.

Now, the challenge is to find a way to bypass this confirmation dialog without access to screen or adb. Then get screencast working. Or this thing:adbcontrol Maybe somehow fix the problem with the old adb and use that to enable the newer one. But better without it. Main reason of doing this is as a learning experience and fun, but also so I can go into an app and get some data out of there (a note app), but that's of secondary importance.

I'm pretty sure USB debugging is enabled, or was last night (maybe that's the reason it stopped working today? Somehow got disabled?)

Phone is rooted, running latest version of SlimKat.

I've been googling for a while now, no leads yet. Anyone got any ideas?
[Sony Xperia ZL] JIGARG:
Hello, I bought Sony Xperia ZL 1.5 years ago and now i want to root it, here comes the problem. I am unable to root it or install CWM or Install roms. First thing is that i have tried rooting my cell phone with rooting kit but it didnt work. I even try to open recovery mode but it failed again. I dont know weather bootloader of my device is locked or unlocked.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] gabessdsp:
So I've seen the supcase and the MoKo case but I hate both of them. They are so bulky.

Is there any hope of a holster case for the Nexus 6 compatible with a bumper from Crashguard or Spigen until Crashguards gets produced?

I like having my phone feel slim in my hands and look elegant, but yet entering into the phablet I'd much rather have a holster than having it sit in my pocket.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ignatiusXIX:
Im in the exact same situation-- just now decided to use the search function and stumbled across this thread. Any luck in your search? I am not a fan of adding any more bulk to this phone, and have always preferred the naked phone approach. But with a device this big, I've decided I need to have at least a holster for it. Sadly, everything I look at is either huge beyond belief, comes with a case, or fugly as a giant fanny pack. Just wanted to let you know that if you're still in the market for a modest, slim and functional holster-- I plan to fabricate my own once my preorder arrives. If I'm successful I'll be sure to post a thread.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] gabessdsp:
For now I just have a leather holster thing from eBay that looks ridiculous, but it works for now since I used eBay bucks to get it for free. If you're going to make your own holster for it I'd be very interested in getting one. I've preordered my crashguard bumper and hope they can produce them soon so that I can get it sooner rather than later, right now I just have the spigen bumper case.

Maybe I could help you in the fabrication process
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ignatiusXIX:
Well, I shouldn't need any help with the holster. Currently just planning on a simple pouch with a flap cover and belt clip. Nothing fancy at all. Just hoping to make one thats slimmer than what I see online. Could get interesting though-- I haven't touched a sewing machine since I was in 6th grade home ec-- for some reason though, I remember stitching up one bad ass canvas tote hahaha. I'll keep you posted once the damn phone gets here and I can mock something up.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] gabessdsp:
Lol that's basically exactly what I got on eBay for $8. I'd much rather have something like I had for my Nexus 4 where I can still "click" the phone into the holster instead of lifting up a flap for it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ignatiusXIX:
Yeah if I could make something like that I would. I can work with fiberglass pretty well, but I don't think I could make a snap in holder. I could probably make one where it slides in though.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] gabessdsp:
That'd be something I'm very interested in, maybe slides in and then has a flap on the end you can close possibly spring loaded?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ignatiusXIX:
You actually got me brainstorming a sort of hybrid of our two ideas haha.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] gabessdsp:
Well I can't wait to hear a final idea :3
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ajrich80:
Kydex is pretty easy to work with. I have made a leather and kydex holster for my 1911
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ignatiusXIX:
Yeah I was planning to use leather and fiberglass. Fiberglass molded from the phone to keep a slim fit while lining the inside of the leather holster for support and protection. That was the plan anyway, because I had stock of those two items. However I have yet to find access to a sewing machine... The hell if I'm going to go out and buy one for this hahaha. Kydex may be an option. I've never worked with it before, but seems doable.

This may have to suffice for now (if the N6 fits). Its the closest thing I can find to something slim and minimal while hitting on some of the functional points I was looking for. That swiveling clip is a bit of a bonus.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mzimand:
I just got the turtleneck case yesterday and am very happy with it.. It fits a little tight with a slim case but perfect with no case.. I use it with my speigen slim case. The quality it really good
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ignatiusXIX:
How secure is the magnetic flap?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mzimand:
Very secure. Everything about the case is high quality
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ignatiusXIX:
Any chance you could share a pic or two of the device in the holster without the case?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mzimand:
Here you go.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ignatiusXIX:
Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mzimand:
Its is a really nice fit with no case. I think that is what it is really designed for. I stretched mine out a little so that I can fit it with a case. I have tried many holsters over the years and always end up using a seidio but I think for the Nexus 6 I will stick with the Turtleback. It is hands down the nicest leather holster I have seen. Also I have already purchased 8 different slim cases and prefer the Spigen (SF Black).

Has anyone seen a kaiser yet? the spec sheet sounds exactly the same as the tytn xcept for the "addition" of gps and of course the auto slide keyboard.

Next time I pin down an HTC rep at a meeting im gonna try and find out more about the kaiser, I have a sneaking suspiscion however that the kaiser is rev 3 of the hermes platform and ay even be a hermes itself.

perhaps the rom of the kaiser will shed some light upon the confusion of hermes GPS.

Hi there I am currently using a Motorola droid pro (MB623) running on android gingerbread 2.3.6 which i have been wanting to upgrade to a custom rom,altho i have found only a little few available for my phone,the ones i have been trying to install via Rom manager app have been unsuccesful due to the fact that no matter how many times i try,i cannot create a custom recovery on my phone,so far i have tried clockwork recovery via rom manager (which my phone don't even seem to be listed on) and of course to no avail,so my question to you is,what custom recovery can i use on my phone?

Many thanks.
[XDA Assist] Darth:
Hi,

I can't find info on recovery. But here's a root thread that worked for many with your device,

> Legacy & Low Activity Devices > Motorola Droid Pro > Droid Pro Android Development > [ROOT] Easily

If you have more issues or questions, please post them here in your device section,

And I would not use Rom Manager anymore for anything. It's known to cause problems. ?

Good luck !

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omid_freesky:
my new note 4 N910H lags too much

I only rooted the phone. then to make sure I flashed the latest official rom. but it's lagging.

for example in browsing or facebook when I scroll it pauses for a moment then scrolls. it's like a temporary freezing

is there a way to fix it?

found a solution: [MENTION=3661110]quantumtraveler[/MENTION]

Open root explorer file manager and navigate to /system. Set it to read/write. Open a file called build.prop with text editor. Find (at the bottom usually) a line that reads: ro.securestorage.support=true. Change "true" to "false" (without quote marks.

Save build.prop and reboot your device

If you use xposed, go to the xposed installer and install the framework again. reboot.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bimjunk:
For your region's 4.4.2 if an OTA is available then you can root on 4.4.2 and upgrade to 4.4.4 via OTA, this would keep the root but will break mount - at that point of time you have to run the modified script within the zip whose name ends with "mount" to fix mount and get full root....
