So I flashed this ROM (xtrasmooth from xdaforums) and then I had my microphone wouldnt work: Can't use GoogleNow ("Ok google"), and I can only make calls using headset or using speakerphone (which use another mic?).

Basically : Unless I'm on speakerphone during calls, people can't hear me talking.

I made some search in the ROM's thread and found out I wasn't the only one with this issue : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=56735315&postcount=105[1]

I figured everything would go back to normal if I did a Factory Reset with Nexus Toolkit. and then... nothing changed, no mic sound. I bought this phone in order to benefits from the rooting and rom capabilities, and now I'm left with a mic-less phone.

Is there something I can do. A factory reset resets EVERYTHING right ? Is there something else I can try and is it completly.... dead.

Is there something I can do ? Please help =/

Hello there,...

because several design thinks of me and also the possibility to do that know... i have made a custom splash screen for me and my tytn/hermes...

2nd cause is that the brand new htc p3300 of my friend is stolen just infront of our eyes.... and i'm sure that the phone get back to daylight in a small handy shop .... and with that costumization i think they must be very clever to reflash that... (hopefully the don't know about this forum ;) )

in the attechment there are the 2 splash files (main + sub - not ident!! ;) )

never mind me if it look for someone not nice about... i like it and maybe anyone too...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mrvanx:
I also have thought about adding a custom splash screen, incase it is stolen. Would be even better (if....IF...the gps chip gets working) if a small app was made that can act as a homing device if it also ever gets stolen.?!?!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] walshieau:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] GeneNZ:
Hi All,

I'm attempting to create a custom boot screen. Followed all the instructions in the wiki. My device has the 1.01 MFG bootloader, is SuperCID, currently with the imate rom etc etc.

Now I go ahead and enter in the commands as exactly in the wiki to change the mainsplash and subsplash with the following output (in this case the output for the subsplash):

USB>task 32

Level = 0

USB>lnb finalsplash.nb 50140000

:F=finalsplash.nb

:A=50140000

:O=00000000

:L=FFFFFFFFF

start NB image download.

Now this is all well and good, but nothing happens. It sits there for a long long time, and the result is I have to do the bad thing on shutting down mtty.exe and rebooting my hermes. What exactly am I missing?

I've checked the filename and filesize (262144 bytes) of the finalsplash.nb, all the orginal bitmaps/finalsplash.nb/splash.nb/padding.nb are there in the same folder. etc etc.

Do I have to be more patient or have I broken something somewhere, because the first time I attempted it, I got the filename wrong and typed in finalspash.nb (forgot the l), so had to disconnect the hermes and restart.

I've rebooted the device after pulling out the cable since doing the above. And it appears to be working (touch wood) still.

Thanks for you help in advance.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] walshieau:
it should start instantlly... check that mtty is in the same folder that the .nb files are...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] GeneNZ:
All the files I used to generate the finalsplash.nb are in the same folder, including the mtty.exe. I've remade the finalsplash.nb file twice to no avail.

Any other ideas? Should something appear on the hermes bootloader screen? As nothing appears on my bootloader screen at all.

I've tried recreating the finalsplash.nb using the bitmap image directly from the HTC 1.35 Rom. Again followed the exact same steps, but no joy.

One thing I must mention however, is that I had problems starting the nb_image_converter.exe. It kept giving me an error message that the comdlg32.ocx was missing or not registered. A quite search on the forum told me to download the ocx file and place it in the same directory as the exe application, which I did so by searching google (as recommended). This started the application, but may have something to do with this failure?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] GeneNZ:
Okay I sorted out the problem. Seems that the mtty.exe I was using was a strange one. Dunno where I got it from, but it didn't seem to do the job.

All I did was take the mtty.exe from the 1.0.1bootloader zip file from the wiki, and use that. Then it worked instantly.

Thanks for you help though!

I've found that there are 2 versions of mtty in the wiki.

One version 48 kb (version 0.01) - this is the one that stalls.

So you know how there is a version of the Sidekick LX 2009 aside from the t-mobile version with the "Sharp Jump" OS on it? Well is it possible to rip the OS from this phone and stick it on another one? Both phones have mini usb ports but I don't know if that would help you rip the OS or not.

From my understanding there is a way to flash/root android phones and install custom .roms on them, would this be possible with the Sidekick LX 2009? How big of an undertaking would it be to do such a thing?

[Nexus Player General] mejdam:
Received my Nexus Player and the first thing i did was install Kodi x86 on it.

My Setup:

Synology 1812+ with 8 3TB WD Harddrives in SHR (Synology version of Raid5)

Using NFS to Share movies from NAS

Netgear R8000 running DDWRT

Using 802.11ac on Nexus Player

Pioneer AV Receiver capable of AC3. DTS, TrueHD and DTS-HD

Once kodi was installed I added my collection of movies (1300+) most of them are 1080p rips ranging from 9GB - 20GB per movie. I was extremely impressed how fast it downloaded Cover Art and thumbnail pictures for all my media, tested a couple of kodi addons like xbmctorrent, 1channel, sportsdevil, acestream setup and Genesis with everything working perfectly. Now I understand that most dont have an AC router but for those that do this thing runs really quick. For those wondering, this device is capable of audio pass through so unlike some of my other devices (Nvidia Shield Tablet, Madcatz Mojo) i actually get true surround sound. Similar to the FireTV the nexus player and player AC3 (Dolby Digital) and DTS perfectly, if you have a video that is DTS-HD it will play the DTS version and if you have a video that has a TrueHD track then it'll be stereo. The only down side of the Nexus Player was the lack of buttons on the remote, i found myself having to use XBMC Remote a couple of times during setup and configuration (lack of menu key). I can now finally get rid of my Madcatz Mojo and Ouya, i kept both of them because i feared amazon would start blocking devices that didn’t have the latest unrooted version, yes yes I know you can side load rooted versions but isn’t it nice having a device that doesnt have the bootloader locked? where you don’t have a lingering feeling that Google will on day block XBMC/Kodi like you fear with Amazon.

I grabbed the minecraft apk from the fire tv hoping i could sideload it on the Nexus Player and get Controller support but it didnt run as planned. graphics looked like they loaded half way so im guessing thats a Intel Chip issue since i've been able to side load that apk on the the nvidia shield tablet.

Pros

802.11ac

Snappy processor

Unlocked Bootloader (No cat and mouse game for bootloader/root like other companies)

Cons

1Gb of Ram (yes its half of the fire TV but i didnt notice lag in my tests)

Ethernet port (Even though FireTV only has fastethernet which is only 100mbps)

lack of buttons on the remote (this was a bit annoying during setup)

Ran some speed test using SFTP to test real world speeds.

Nexus Player (802.11ac) at 3.59MB/s

[Nexus Player General] Magnesus:
So is the Nexus Player fast enough to open 20GB movies over NAS through WiFi? I use FireTV with Kodi right now and 10GB are not a problem but I had to raise the XBMC cache a bit - otherwise there was some buffering happening at random times.

By the way - you can use FireTV remote on the Nexus Player - but you have to pair it meaning it won't be easy to switch between FireTV and Nexus Player if you want to use both.
[Nexus Player General] mejdam:
That's correct, I can play 20GB files easily without any drops. Nexus Player is 20 feet away from router.

I havent paired a fire remote to the nexus player but I don't see why it wouldn't work. I'll test later today but if I pair a fire remote why do I still need the nexus remote?

[Nexus Player General] JosterNL:
How to make a good choice between the Amazon Fire TV and the Google Nexus Player? I live in Europe (not Germany / UK) so I don't know any people with the AFTV or the NP.

When I search Google for reviews (comparing both devices for example), I only find some short summary's of the devices without focus on the things I care about. What I'm missing is explanation and discription of items like HDMI-CEC functionality, handling HLS streaming apps, working with an USB-hub, installing KODI (and what video formats are supported), sideloading apps, (lack off) auto frame rate switching, installing different launchers, reviewing the controllers / remotes / available remote apps, etc, etc.

Someone who can help me with this choice?
[Nexus Player General] Wilberry:
In my opinion I would go with the Nexus Player, the FireTV has a usb but does not work, whereas the Nexus Player's usb can be enabled giving you access to a usb hub. I have this working. Not that familiar with HLS, but from a quick search seems to be an apple standard. HDMI-CEC is simply turning on the TV via the nexus player and switching to the correct HDMI input, not really a huge feature in my book, but to each their own.

Kodi can be installed, but is not ready for prime time just yet, it works but on and off, I would say its more a google os problem than a kodi problem. I believe this will get resolved. There is another thread that lists apps that can be sideloaded, its growing and will only get bigger as devs enable their apps for android tv. Not sure about autoframe rate switching, but different launchers already work with nexus player. Third party controllers and remotes work with the nexus player.

I think one area you should consider is the the nexus player is already rooted and the FireTV is closed, this makes the nexus player a lot more flexible for future hacks and development. Another area is the performance, the nexus player is a better performing device. Your use case would be the determining factor, in mine I was looking for an open low cost htpc and the nexus player delivers on that.
