[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbtlr:
Hi all. I'll make this quick.

Rocked GPE since I've had the phone pretty much, flashed it shortly after it came out, which was also when I picked it up. Used an RUU and received OTA updates.

For whatever reason I couldn't OTA to 5.0.1 despite going to 4.4.4 OTA. Unsure why.

No matter, I flashed the stock 5.0.1 RUU- the untampered but rooted LRX22C.H5 build and everything seemingly went off without a hitch- however I noticed that the duo functions are no longer working under the proper conditions which I used to use them pre-lolipop. No matter what, it states they're unavailable. I'm fairly competent with this stuff- not a wizard. Is there a way to see if the OS is seeing the "supportive" top camera? I tried installing the APK for the straight up HTC Gallery app and the options weren't even there- as they are with the one that's bundled with the GPE. So I rolled it back to the bundled GPE version of HTC gallery where the icons are, but always unavailable.

Here's my report:

I don't understand what exactly is your problem with duo cam. Can't you access anymore to HTC photo edit app after taking a photo?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbtlr:
I take a photo using the default Google camera application using settings duo camera effects have always been available for - rear camera, no HDR, just normal photos from camera etc.

On 4.4.4 GPE when I did this I could edit in HTC photo editor from the photo gallery and I could apply the effect. In 5.0.1 it's the same process however the application says that the effects are unavailable, as if it was shot with HDR or some other requirements which would disqualify it , but I am doing what I've always done.

Is there a way to tell if the system is even seeing the duocam or whatever the supplementary camera is called?

I hit a file size limit so I pasted. Sorry.

I think the log wasn't filtered right so there isn't much helpful there.

I was hoping to avoid reflashing.

I'll nuke the whole thing from TWRP and reapply the whole RUU.

It's not worth banging my head against the wall anymore.

I'll report back.

There is the recent app button. That works for switching between open apps.

Also there was a user that made a panel for recent apps and task manager.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I would like to say hello first.... although I have lurked a few times, I am completely incompetent when it comes to the modifying of devices. So be patient.

My question,

I am a little confused regarding the different options regarding the rooting methods of my device, and the concerns surrounding knox. (1) Am I correct that most of the work being done on different methods is based on knox and due to not wanting to void the warranty? (2) And if a person was not concerned with the warranty what would be the most straight forward method for a root? (3) I also see a lot of effort being put into the tethering and wifi calling options, I have free tethering and wfc with my data plan....and would assume others do as well with tmo..... so am I correct in assuming that rooting somehow affects this feature?

Thank you in advance

After rooting the tablet this afternoon using "Genius Root" I somehow managed to get it stuck in a hard (factory reset) loop. It's a digiin/iRulu X10 on android 4.2.2. Got the tab rooted and was loading some apps and playing around. Loaded SuperSU to replace the KingUser app loaded with the root - it was after that (don't remember what else I'd done) that it reset and, on rebooting, was in the reset loop.

Did manage to (once) get to a screen showing some options but don't know how I got there and can't get back to it. I tried an option that was something like 'use .apk file to reboot' and that didn't help.

Any ideas on how I can break it out of the loop or get back to that options screen?

I have also tried the 'power/volume' reset with no luck...

Thanks much in advance for your help, Vern

Edit: Tried 'unrooting' the tablet with no luck. Problem persists - just now the tablet is no longer rooted. Also, the 'internal memory' shows almost completely full so I can't install any programs from the playstore to attempt to clean things up. Did manage to get back to the 'recovery screen' but there are no viable options there for the problem that I can see.

[General Questions and Answers] Aswin08:
As for as a source -

"1-- Google is using EXO file format to save videos. This is apparently a file format used for system files and while we managed to copy these EXO files onto a computer, it can be apparently played only through the YouTube Android app.

2-- When you request a download for an offline video in the YouTube app, the video is downloaded in chunks. For example, a 3-minute file we downloaded was saved in five parts. It is possible that only the YouTube app for Android can make sense of these chunks and join them together.

3-- We also feel there is real-time encryption going on here. When the video is downloaded, not only it is broken into parts but is also converted to EXO format, compressed and encrypted in real time. This has several benefits, the one obvious benefit is that people can't copy-paste the video and share it indiscriminately. The compression, meanwhile, saves space on the disk. For example, the 3-minute long video that we downloaded actually consumed around 40MB data. But when stored on the phone, the video took only around 25mb space.

4-- When a user plays the video, it is decrypted in real time. It is possible that only YouTube's app can do this decryption.

5- If you share the offline video using Bluetooth, instead of the actual file, a web link to the video is sent to the recipient."
[General Questions and Answers] vikraminside:
My idea is not to break head in YouTube encryption and decryption.

Will it be possible to use YouTube app itself to decrypt and write the output stream as mp4/avi video using ffmpeg codec?

We would require to decompile YouTube apk. The reason for this question is, YouTube is default app in almost all Android phones. There is good market out there. ;)

It's an android only thing it seems, not a YouTube only thing.

There are other android apps (subscription services) that save the files in exo format & they are all real paranoid about piracy, hence the use of encrypted exo.

If many apps use the file format, then someone might be able to come up with a media player capable of playing those.

Hello All,

The other night my kindle had approximately 10% battery life left; I forgot to charge it up the next day. I noticed the battery expired and proceeded to charge it up; when I plugged the charger in the battery symbol came up in the middle of the screen. I charged it overnight and proceeded to turn it on the next morning. When I did so, the "Kindle Fire" (all in white lettering) screen popped up and didn't go away. I have not modded this kindle in any way!

I searched the forums and made a fastboot cable, it goes into fastboot mode but my computer doesn't recognize it when i issue the "adb device" command. I am not sure what happened to my kindle (it is 1 month past the warranty date) but I was hoping to re-install the OS back onto the device.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MT_Keg:
I believe I have the drivers installed. Under the Device Manager I see a an opting called "Kindle Fire" once I expand to the next level I see "Android ADB Interface". To further clarify, I am not able to "Enable ADB" on the physical device.

I tried using KFHD SRT, I selected Option 1 and the Command Prompt indicated that it transferred 903XXX kb in 53 seconds. when I went to "Erase Cache and User Data" it couldn't find the device and my computer sounded like the USB connection was continuously being connected and disconnected in a loop.

Since that happened I tried issuing the command

fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product

My prompt states:

Then if I issue the command

adb devices

My prompt states:

adb server is out of date. killing...

* daemon started successfully *

There are no devices in the list. This is probably because I didn't have ADB Enabled on my Kindle before it Died.

Alternatively, I tried the KF First Aide tried to "Completely Restore the KFHD7 to 7.2.1" (Option 4). It downloaded a bunch of files then spit out the following:

Screen mirroring will work as long as you are using a KitKat ROM and Mirror Enabler installed (needs root). The latest version of the Chromecast is supposed to have experimental screen mirroring for ALL KitKat devices, but I haven't tried this out personally. Performance of the mirroring will depend mostly on your connection speed.

Personally, I hardly ever use the screen mirroring, it just feels clunky. It's much better if the app you're using supports Chromecast.
