Hey guys, my tab WILL NOT boot into Download Mode. I'm not a noob, I DO know what I am doing with some of this stuff. The tab has no problem getting into Recovery, and, up to this point, has had no issues booting into the download mode. I am currently stock, so I can't go to Recovery (a custom one) and do it from there. And, for whatever reason, the 3-button method WILL NOT WORK (Power+Vol Down+Home). I've checked the Vol Down and Home buttons while booted regularly, and they perform the functions that they're supposed to, so it's not like one of the buttons has crapped out or anything. Someone PLEASE tell me that there is another way, or an app of some sort, that I can use to get into Download Mode.

Thanks

To get ADB working, make sure you install the adb drivers and enable USB debugging on your tablet (developer options).

Hopefully, Yes. If it still doesn't work, select option 10 and make sure it show your device as connected. That means ADB can see it.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] bretmaster5:
Hi guys,

I hope you're all well.

I recently opened up my i9305 to remove a buggy power button whilst at it I was looking at the vibration motor. I reassembled it, placed it on charge. And it didn't respond instantly as usual, after a few minutes the red led light turns on but nothing else? What's weird is that when I press the home button the red led light will disappear for a few moments and then reappear. There's no way I can turn it on because I've got no power button, no splash screen comes up whilst charging.

Does anybody know what's going on? I'd appreciate any help

HELLO everyone :D

I own a Samsung Galaxy S Duos (S-7552) (not really sure why it isn't appearing in 'type to find device' thread :( )

Recently, I rooted it and installed a custom rom namely, Cosmic Rom v2.5 :)

I am getting a weird problem though,

whenever I open UC Browser, my device shows message like "superuser granted to shell" repeatedly like 10-15 times.. it keeps flashing and meanwhile my phone becomes super slow

.

It only happens when I use UC Browser, no where else in my phone. Please help me to fix it :)

Have a nice day and thanks in advanced for reply! :D

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flexy_75:
Hi there,

first, I'm a new xda forum user. I've been using linux on desktops for over 10 years, so linux is familiar to me. But this Xperia Z2 is my first smart phone ever, had it 6 months now. The phone is with latest firmware, rooted with instructions found on this forum. Thats enough with introductions. :)

The problem: I had my internal storage space nearly filled up, the phone suggested to move stuff to sd card. I was stupid enough to do so, I let the phone move my pictures to sd card. Shortly after that the sd card failed. I used linux programs and a card reader to salvage the pictures from the card. I copied them back to internal storage, using File Commander. Now the pictures don't show up in the Album anymore. Which came first, not showing in the Album after moving files to sdcard or not showing because the card failed? I don't know, because the card failed before I used Album next time... Either I copied them in the wrong directory or I am missing something I should have also done. They have done a marvelous job in obfuscating the directory structure from "normal" linux system...

After I copied the pics back to internal storage, I got the placeholders showing in Album, in place of thumbnails... and clicking the placeholders I get a full screen placeholder pic. And the videos taken previously with some other phone or Z2, those get a different placeholder (kind of Play button), clicking them I get a "Cannot play video" message. All these pics/videos are viewable with PC.

Now, the questions:

What is the right directory where I should copy the previously taken pictures?

Does the Album create thumbnails again automatically, where should those be located?

How does the Album decide the timeline of the pics? Exif, file creation time, some other method?

Can I make a symbolic link to have that picture directory to hold it content on the sdcard?

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geeks Empire:
Info

the Album will scan all storage when u open it but always it s not problem with Album app

some picture files cannot be scanned by any media app. (just by file managers)

for example u may use 3rd party camera app and its photo not appear on Album so it s not the album problem u should ask that developer to set MediaScan on her app files.

:good:
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flexy_75:
Vast majority of the pics are taken with this phone. Even they don't show up more than as a placeholder pic. Every pic/video showed OK before these events I wrote in the opening post.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flexy_75:
They are corrupted somehow, again. I'll just have to ditch the pics and see if new pics show up as they should. :(
[HTC One X+] krautsalat82:
Hi, I am running the Revolution HD 8.0 on my phone and have been quite happy with it untill recently. The problem is, that randomly the phone takes up to a minute to wake up when I press the power button. The screen just stays black and no buttons are responding. After about 30 seconds to one minute the lock screen comes on and everything works just as normal. This happens only a few times per day. Many times the phone wakes up instantly.

I have tried a factory reset of the Revolution HD and removed all user data but it still happens.

I contacted the HTC support but all they tried was a hard reset (power + volume up + volumne down). It didnt help and they told me to send the phone in to have it checked out. Since I have opened the phone a few times I do not expect to get any warranty repairs on it.

Do you have any ideas on what could be causing this and what I can try to fix it or find out more about it?

Thanks. Regards,

Thanks for the reply! I have just flashed the kernel and will give it a try. Keeping my fingers crossed it will fix this issue.

I have to say the situation has improved a lot. However it still happened once since I flashed the EliteKernel. I mean if it happens once a day I could actually live with it but the root of the problem seems still to be there. Any other ideas what I can try and what could cause this? Are there any logs I could read out after it happens?
[G2 Themes and Apps] vPro97:
This mod is brought to you by [MENTION=4679677]langeveld024[/MENTION]! If you like it, make sure you thank one of his posts as well. I have just tested the mod and modified the volumes to match our device.

Surround Sound/True Stereo MOD for the LG G2

This MOD requires ROOT

What is this?

This is a mod that allows the phone to use the earpiece combined with the loudspeaker to play sounds and music, thus resulting in a surround sound-like effect. The mod is made by editing mixer_paths.xml

Is it safe?

I've been thoroughly testing it on my LG G2 running OptimusG3 1.4.1 and CloudyG3 2.1. I tuned the sound to what I think the earpiece can handle without getting damaged. The earpiece is very clear and produces wonderful sound, but it's not that loud at all.

Other members of this fantastic community have tested the MOD on LiquidSmooth 4.0 (Lollipop) and on Stock LG firmware and reported that it works flawlessly!

Installation instructions

1. MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP - PLEASE! This mod has ONLY been tested on OptimusG3 1.4.1 and not on any other ROM. So please make a nandroid so you can restore your phone in case it goes sour! I may be able to provide a flashable zip in the future, but till then, make a nandroid!

2. Copy your current mixer_paths.xml from /system/etc to somewhere safe then download mixer_paths.xml.

3. Move it to /system/etc and give it 644 permissions. 644 permissions looks like this:

xxo

xoo

xoo

4. Reboot and enjoy surround sound.

General piece of recommendation - Use this mod in conjunction with dorimanx kernel, as dorimanx kernel allows you to tune the loudspeaker volume easily using STweaks. You may need to turn down the volume quite a bit (-10 in STweaks) to avoid the loudspeaker overruling the earpiece. But then you'll really notice the mod!

Test the mod

To test if this works see: Left/Right Stereo Audio/Visual Test.: http://youtu.be/dvqbq_0jZ_U

I don't like this, what do I do?

Just move the original mixer_paths.xml that you copied to somewhere safe back into /system/etc and overwrite the old file. Then reboot.

[G2 Themes and Apps] Jonous:
Works on 802 on miui nice!!
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
great share, thanks...

reminded me of a classic acid techno track from the 90's :)

http://youtu.be/-YNW8Azq9TA

btw working nice on cloudy g3 2.1 with dorimanx kernel (stweaks sound settings on a screenshot, i tried to equalize both "speakers" as much as possible)

as you can see, main speaker gain is at its lowest setting (-10 vol)

btw do you think this mod will somehow affect in-call volumes? (mic & speaker)
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
btw i hope [MENTION=2376110]dorimanx[/MENTION] can somehow include this mod in stweaks as well...

only downside to this is that i mostly rotate my device 90ccw so left and right channels are switched :) but no biggie...

and i wouldn't call this "surround". something like "true stereo" would be closer :)

i tried a few sound tests on youtube and it really sounds better with this mod... music as well...
[G2 Themes and Apps] Jonous:
yeah cool mod, only downside the difference between the two speakers. The small one distorts easily, but indeed stweaks can help with that.
[G2 Themes and Apps] bloof:
Tested as well on Cloudy G3 2.1, worked, but i didn't play with full sound settings to get best effect.
[G2 Themes and Apps] vPro97:
Thanks for the nice feedback.

I forgot to add to add that to the OP, as I use the exact same settings as you do in STweaks.

This mod shouldn't affect in call volume since it's made by copying headphone path into the speaker path and using the earpiece, so the earpiece only lines are left untouched.

I also rotate my device 90 degrees ccw and when I do that, my left speaker is the earpiece and right speaker is the loudspeaker. It might be different between cloudyG3 and optimusg3.

I really want some feedback from people who are using stock based ROMS.

-as for the loudspeaker volume, it's a thing that I need to consider. If I turn it down too low to achieve 'true stereo' i think people will complain that their overall sound is too low. And if I don't only people with dorimanx kernel will be able to tune the volume easily.
[G2 Themes and Apps] Jonous:
Then just suggest everyone should install dorimanx, simple as that :D
[G2 Themes and Apps] vPro97:
The thing is, I already did.
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
i'd always give my vote to clearer, better sound than giving it to a louder sound...

even though - the sound isn't that low with those settings (-10) it somehow just feels right now...
[G2 Themes and Apps] vPro97:
That's exactly my experience as well! So I think it's safe to say that this mod works for G3 based roms but for optimal sound quality, you need to use dorimanx kernel and turn down speaker volume to -10.

I just flashed CloudyG3 2.1 to check what you said about left/right right/left :) You're completely right about it being changed. I'm on it =D
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
it's not a problem at all :) i can just rotate the device 90cw and it will be ok...

i'm just used to turn it 90ccw since ever...

also - i rarely listen/watch anything in landscape on a mobile device...

you don't have to bother with this :)
[G2 Themes and Apps] vPro97:
One of the reasons I came back to CloudyG3 was specifically to address this issue :) So don't tell me I don't have to bother :) It's hard to change a routine :) Anyway, once again thanks to [MENTION=4679677]langeveld024[/MENTION] this mod should work flawlessly on CloudyG3!

Updating the OP with the download link!
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
ok mate :) i just wanted to save you a bit of work :)

btw i forgot to mention

yesterday when i downloaded the file using the mobile device - it downloaded some kind of a ".bin" document (but i renamed it to "mixer-paths.xml" and everything was ok)

now i downloaded the new (cloudy) version from my PC - filename is correct...

just mentioning this to help someone if he/she got confused with the filenames (it's obviously some dropbox/android/android browser issue)

cheers, and thanks a bunch again :)

[G2 Themes and Apps] sjk971005:
Hi, had this mod for a day now and it works great :)

However, I had to play a song and it was too quiet so I had to bump the sound up to +5.

This mod converts the output to stereo, into left and right, yes?

Could you please make a version that's just mono but with both speakers to boost volume?

Boosting volume in Dorimanx messes up the balance between left and right.

Thanks

Hello congratulation for your good works ! Any chance for compatibility with aosp rom (now or futur) ?

[G2 Themes and Apps] roboMr.Burns:
Love this Mod! Would be Great to have an app to turn it on and off!

[G2 Themes and Apps] vPro97:
Hello and thanks for the feedback!

Unfortunately, making such a modification will result in way too many xml-files, thus making it hard for the user to choose what he wants :/

On some media players you can choose Mono instead of stereo. The earpiece won't boost the sound by much though, so I wouldn't say it's worth the hassle.

Hello and thanks for the feedback. The work is not mine alone, it's hugely langeveld024 as well. I'll have to take a look, so no promises, but I'll see if it's actually something that people want and then work on it.

Thanks for the feedback. About having an app for that - well it would be awesome! But is it possible? Either way I'm looking forwards to what you are cooking!

[MENTION=4656786]60nine[/MENTION] - check OP for a ccw left/right sound mod. langeveld024 solved it for me this time :P

[G2 Themes and Apps] deraiz12:
Ok thx
[G2 Themes and Apps] roboMr.Burns:
Made two really simple Apps. Just as proof of concept.. UI will follow maybe tomorrow

-Create a folder on sdcard: robo

-Put the modded mixer_paths.xml in that folder (should be /sdcard/robo/mixer_paths.xml)

-install and run Stereo App

device will reboot

to roll back install and run stereo disable App

You can now Enable or Disable by running an app.

I take no responisibility :)

Tested on d802 cloudy g3 2.1
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
so it's on the same link as before? (since you don't rename the "mixer-paths.xml" to let us know which version it is :) )

tested it - it works in ccw now as it should :)

suggestion:

- put 2 different "mixer-paths.xml" for download (one for CW landscape and one for CCW landscape rotation) - i doubt everyone rotates the device CCW like myself for example :)

- put a original (i.e.) "ORIGINAL_mixer-paths.xml" for both roms (in case people mess up something and forget to backup the original file)

as always - thanks...

ps

about the sound volumes on both speakers...

i assume the speaker hardware is not the same for the regular speaker and the call speaker - so call speaker can't handle louder sound (or it could, but can easily be broken or have the distorted sound if you listen to it loud for long time)

anyway - we have the mod - we can test it all :)

i just don't get why LG didn't do something like this out of the box... it just feels right having 2 speakers like this...
[G2 Themes and Apps] r4Rok:
Hell, i copied the mixer_paths.xml to /system/etc with permissions set to 644, now my G2 D802 Cloudy3 2.1 won't boot and stuck at LG logo. After clearing dalvik/cache, the phone is stucking at "android is upgrading".

Is there anyways to recovery my phone back to previous state ?
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
it's probbably because you didn't set the permissions after copying...

if you use twrp 2.8.x.x version of the recovery, then you can use its file manager to copy files to system folders...

just make sure, before you do, go to twrp "mount" menu and mount the system... then use the file manager to copy original mixer_paths.xml where it belongs...

or if you only messed up the permissions, you don't have to copy the file - just use the twrp file manager and go to "system/etc" folder, select the "mixer-paths.xml" and change its permissions to 644 (which equals rw-r-r)
[G2 Themes and Apps] r4Rok:
Hi, thanks, after i copied the file to /system/etc, i had set the permissions to 644, and STweaks to as per your screenshot. But, after i rebooted my phone it stucks at LG logo. And, after clearing dalvik/cache, it is stucking at "Android is upgrading." I have flashed the stock Cloudy 3 2.1 kernel, still no luck, and the phone is still stucking on "android is upgrading."
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
weird...

have you downloaded the xml for cloudy rom? (maybe you accidentaly downloaded optimus one)

btw clearing cache/dalvik is not needed (at least i didn't do it myself)
[G2 Themes and Apps] r4Rok:
yes, i had downloaded XML for Cloudy from the 2nd link on OP. Now, trying to extract mixer_paths from Cloudy3 2.1 ROM ZIP to see if it works.

How about stock?
[G2 Themes and Apps] vPro97:
Hello. This often happens if there is an error within the file you downloaded. Are you sure you didn't edit anything? Either way, I'm aware this can happen when modifying mixer_paths.xml (since it happened when I was modifying my file) but it should not happen with the finished XML that I provided. I hope you've made a backup of your original XML file or even made a full nandroid. It's recoverable, but please be careful next time.

Make a nandroid backup and test it. Nobody has tested it on stock ROMs yet. If you can't make a nandroid (no custom recovery), please don't try it.

[MENTION=4656786]60nine[/MENTION]

Thanks for helping out :)

As for CCW/CW rotation, well, one can just download OptimusG3 file for CW sound (at least on CloudyG3) and I'm pretty sure it works the other way around.

As for the volume. I've said it multiple times :): The hardware is not the same; the earpiece is clear and silent while the loudspeaker is loud and not as clear :) However, this MOD has been tested (I played at max volume for 2 hours straight followed by a 4 hour straight) and I think it's safe to asy that you can turn the volume to the max without damaging your earpiece :).

And I've always envied the BoomSound Speakers on my friend's HTC One. Now we have something similar ;)

[MENTION=4115780]roboMr.Burns[/MENTION]

Thanks for the app! IS there any chance you could enhance it so that you can both disable and enable the mod in one APP and also install the mod for various ROMS? If that's possible I'll add it into the OP and credits will be given ofc.
