[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] benfikaman:
Hello all, so here's the issue.... Since we have safestarp working (except for rom slots) I have been trying out all the awesome roms available. Well all throughout my testing there is one common denominator and that is I cannot toggle wifi on. If I restore back to my backup of nd7 wifi and all is fine but as soon as I flash a rom through safestrap its a no go. For the record I have tried R3Ds Port Rom and DN3 with full wipe and format before each install. The only ROM I was able to get wifi connected on was Alliance Rom so far, but I really like some of the features of the other two. So can someone offer some help or maybe point me in the right direction because in the threads for the individual roms they say to flash a kernel to fix but that isn't possible in safestrap (as far as I know). Thanks in advance guys!

hi,

My lumia 720 became unresponsive even though it had more than 70% of battery. Usuallly, if i put it to charge it restarts and starts working fine but that's not happening this time. I cannot soft reset as my volume down button has not been responding since it fell down 3-4 months back. I would love to know if there is any way i can restart my phone?

Thank you.

Has anybody tried a Verizon SIM in a Moto Maxx to see if it works?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] swboland:
Moto Maxx DOES NOT work on Verizon

I purchased a Moto Maxx on ebay from a seller who had bought it from someone in Puerto Rico. I popped in my SIM card from my Droid Maxx and tried to activate it on Verizon's website. No luck. When I entered the IMEI it said that the device ID wasn't registered. So I called Verizon customer service and tried to activate it over the phone. Again, no luck, the guy on the phone told me that it was showing him that the IMEI wasn't registered. I had a feeling this was going to happen, although I thought Verizon would be actively blocking the IDs of Moto Maxxes, it turns out that they just aren't registered with Verizon, so Verizon can't activate them on their network. The guy I was talking to from Verizon customer service said that I could try taking the phone into a store and the people there could call Verizon tech support and try to get it activated. If you've ever been to a Verizon store you probably know why I didn't bother doing this. Even though they may be able to register the IMEI on Verizon's network, I don't think that the device would work properly since it is a GSM device and Verizon's network is CDMA. I know that VoLTE just came out so it's theoretically possible that you could use Moto Maxx on Verizon's network and all your calls could go through LTE. However, there are a lot of problems with VoLTE, like totally losing a call if you lose LTE service, etc.

My contract with Verizon just ended so I just switched to T-Mobile, which I've been waiting for my contract to end to be able to do, and the phone and service have been working great.

I'd highly recommend if you are in a good service area for T-Mobile (a major metropolitan area) to switch to T-mobile if you want to have a Droid Turbo/Moto Maxx device and be able to root it. T-mobile still offers early termination fee reimbursement for switching and right now they have a deal going for a 2 line unlimited family plan for $100/month and each additional line is $40/month.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] greekstile:
Just curious, why were you trying to register the imei online? Popping in the sim should have been the only thing needed. Obviously that didn't work though.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] swboland:
Because popping in the SIM card didn't automatically begin an activation process on the phone, so I figured it was probably because the Moto Maxx isn't set up to automatically activate on Verizon. I just tried the next thing I could think of, which was trying to activate the phone on the Verizon website.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Ghobar:
Hello,

If SuperOneClick stopped at "Shell rooting device... -Step #5 Shell Command etc." it is most probably because your computer's security programme has cleaned some components of SuperOneClick as malware.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mattdiehl83:
Wanted to start a thread to celebrate 0x1. So many people worry about tripping the flag. So I would like to hear why you decided you didnt care any more. Was it a certain ROM that made you jump? Speed enhancements? Or just a general "Screw you Samsung" feeling? Let me know and lets show people that 0x1 is not the end of the world!!

*edit* it IS the end of your warrenty as my friend below me just stated. Guess that should be stated. Lol

*edit 2* In light of another post....i did not know some countries actually do not look at knox. So i will add to these questions....does the knox flag even matter in your country?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jerverg:
Definitely not the end of the world. More like the end of your phone's official warranty.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mattdiehl83:
My reason was just overall disgust for big corp telling me what I can and cannot do with my $800 phone. That was my orginal reason. Secondly was I love having a new device anytime i feel like it.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mattdiehl83:
But I know personally that it is kind of a 50/50 on trade ins if they will dig that deep. If you re-flash everything back to dead stock you do stand a good chance of pushing it through you carriers grasp. I know with t-mobile atleast
[Galaxy Note 3 General] effortless:
It's actually just the loss of Knox. The area that your phone was able to create to store a secure container housing work email or private apps and documents. Tripping Knox Warranty means your phone can't use Knox anymore.

Samsung did not create that flag for their warranty purposes on the phone (although it could be used for such things). It was created to alert the IT department at your job that you can't house important info on your phone anymore. Knox's warranty was void.

On the Note 4, if you trip Knox, you have to do some other stuff afterwards in order to stop severe lag (that is caused by tripping Knox) and to use private mode again.

Again, this is not something Samsung put on here to screw us, Knox actually has a purpose and place in protecting important information. I wish it was reset able though although I understand why it isn't.

Having a secure container like that on your phone has attracted military as well as many companies in the private sector to buy and approve use of Samsung phones in the workplace.

YouTube Knox 2.0 if you've never actually used Knox and are curious as to what your phone now can't do. If you didn't know what it was, then you probably won't care and will be happy with custom kernels and recoveries (the two things that trip Knox).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mattdiehl83:
You are correct friend. I guess I kinda was not specific. By Screw Samsung I mean they use it. Yes Knox is a big deal if you are in a business that demands that flag be secure. However Samsung encorperates it, carriers use it against us, so I say SCREW them both.....lol. But I like you description and thank you for contributing it here friend.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] HanZie82:
Well over here they are not allowed to deney us waranty on hardware when only the software has changged.

So yeah 0x1 over here...

I don't want to conform to the standard phone layout. As im not a sheep I want my phone to be unique. And now for most people it does look like it is. :D
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mattdiehl83:
So where is it your from? Thats awsome they cant deny you. And i agree, i have to be different. I dont like being told that my phone has to be what they say. Android is free kind of like the freedom of being able to going out side the palace but having to stay within the walls of the grounds. No thanks. Im climbing those walls. :)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Devhux:
I'm stuck with 0x0 no matter what it seems I do. Damn Canadian bootloaders..... LOL!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] devilsdouble:
Why I didn't care, ever? This is probably my 28th phone (if I had kept the counting right) and only thrice in my life I had to visit service centre. And twice because of my own fcuk up.

Second reason, I can still get it serviced, but for a small amount of course.

So why people care about warranty that much is a questionable thing to me, no offence.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jankro:
Same here, 2 year warranty cannot be denied here either.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Sammath:
0x1 straight out of the box. Got this phone since it's release date. Never looked back.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] maxilick:
Been living life with security flags being tripped for almost 3 years. First HTC then Samsung it's a way of life now. ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Beefheart:
I see the benefits of keeping knox at 0x0. You're guaranteed repair if you're in your warranty (repair in warranty with knox at 0x1 is basically a lottery) and, for the most part, you're not missing a lot these days. Most custom stock roms support stock kernels and can be installed with Mobile Odin Pro, meaning no loss of knox. And with Towelroot and MOP root injection, you can root without losing knox too. The only roms you can't use are non-stock AOSP/CM builds. But I've never really understood why anyone with a Note device would bother with these anyway as you're losing the primary advantage these things offer over standard phones, namely the S-Pen. Sure, you can keep some features with certain applications, but things likes Smart Select will never be available.

However, despite all the above, I deliberately tripped my knox because I missed full Nandroid backups and restores. I like testing roms. And changing them for me was a pain in the arse. I like trying a rom, but going back to how my phone was EXACTLY before I flashed it if I don't like it much. Nandroid is the only way of doing that in a decent time frame, and it requires a custom recovery like TWRP and CWM.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] JayHandsome:
It just don't matter

I went in to my carrier and showed them my phone. I had bricked it softly. So, the manager played with til he had gotten the download screen. In the mean time they had made arrangements if I could not get working they were going to hook me up with a new phone. They asked me why I was doing it and I told them I didn't like the bloatware. Yes, it already had the 0x1. Yes, I live in the US. No it just didn't matter.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mattdiehl83:
+1

VICTORY!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] speedyjay:
Under EU statutory law, the service Centre have to prove that rooting and changing system software was the direct cause of any malfunction. If they can't, they are required, again under statutory law, to repair any android device fee free.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] dodgebizkit:
I have 0x1 and a custom recovery and ROM.

Is there any way to return the phone to a state in which it receives standard OTA updates again?

Want to sell it and if the buyer isn't a rooter/nerd they might complain that the system has been modified.

-------------------------->SIG<------------------------

Even my house phone's better than your iPhone.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] speedyjay:
Just flash official Samsung firmware via odin. Flashing official Samsung firmware doesn't trip Knox. In regards to returning Knox to 0x0....no method has been found as far as I know.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mattdiehl83:
Thats my whole argument. How can they just refuse you. Its a tactic to save them money. Even though your paying a $175 deductible. They should always have to prives the root had simething to do with it. If i bust my screen how the hell does me having a rooted phone disqualify me from receiving a new one. ESPECIALLY with a $175 payment for it. It B.S.

Ouya Wireless Controller - Works but doesn't work with all Android TV games

Mad Catz C.T.R.L.R - Works but doesn't work with all Android TV games

Nexus Player GamePad - Obviously Works but wanted to add to list

USB ADAPTERS

May Flash N64 Controller Adapter for PC USB - Works, using it alongside my Mupen64 Emulator
[Nexus Player General] spacr:
The NP works with Bravia sync and the Sony tv remote. You can navigate with the arrows, play, pause etc. I figured this out by accident.
[Nexus Player General] jaykresge:
Xbox 360 Wireless controller: works with the official wireless PC adapter. I've tested 4 controllers. Button mappings aren't the same as Bluetooth HID. R/L bumpers act as the R/L triggers. R/L triggers act as the X/Y axis of the right analog stick (mouse simulation). Other discrepancies.

Nexus Player Gamepad - Not perfect either. Uses standard Bluetooh HID mappings, but lacks a proper start/select button. Does not work properly with Soul Calibur.
[Nexus Player General] defconoi:
Nyko Playpad Pro works perfectly, got 2 of them for $12 at gamestop:

[Nexus Player General] Matt112211:
Another Controller...

Two things to add to the list of things that work....

* The Gamestop Red Samurai. It is listed on their site as "Tablet Wireless Game Controller V2", here: http://www.gamestop.com/android/accessories/tablet-wireless-game-controller-v2/104425 I like it because it is $12 and has a rechargeable battery. I have a pair of these. I have only had issues in one game, but I have not tried too many of the games with this controller. Warning, when I went into the store, the two employees there had no idea what I was talking about, I brought up the web page, showed them the product and that they had it. I have been to two game stops that had it, and it is always in the back room, very odd...

For Remote:

* Logitech Harmony Smart Control. This is the fairly current one, it has a little black WiFi enabled emitter and a simple remote. I was able to get it to talk with my Nexus Player and I can do everything that I can do on the regular remote. Works great.
[Nexus Player General] ktownhero:
I believe the high-end Harmony (ultimate?) can also connect via bluetooth and registers as a bluetooth keyboard, which is pretty sweet.
[Nexus Player General] mejdam:
if you test it and can confirm i'll add it to the list.
[Nexus Player General] pchtc:
harmony smart and harmony ultimate

both use the exact same hub

just different remote

all communication is done at the hub

the smart is working for me (with a workarround tutorial posted in the harmony forum)

(basically you add a windows pc and tell it you have a bluetooth keyboard, then map the keys in the activity)

The NES30 bluetooth controller works perfectly.
[Nexus Player General] bloodyarmour:
I'm having issues connecting with mine. How did you get it to connect?

I want to use it for snes roms.
[Nexus Player General] drilus:
I had to clear it's state. Power it on. Then press and hold the select button for 3 seconds. Then after that click the NES30 option on the nexus player to pair the device. It should work after that.
[Nexus Player General] bloodyarmour:
Ok I tried that last night and it would pair but then unpair a minute or 2 later. It would work and then I could load up a rom. However, 1 minute into the game it would unpair. It is a brand new controller.

I haven't noticed it disconnecting. I'll use it for a longer period and let you know my results.

OUYA Controller

went out and bought an ouya controller based on this thread

the description of it working with some games as exceptions is a bit misleading

its very flaky, disconnects frequently, sends incorrect button presses randomly, and just stops sending commands out of no where. as an example the trigger is used for gas in a car game, every 5-10 seconds you need to release and pull again or the car stopps as the trigger acts like its not connected.

now before you blame the ouya controller or the batteries

i have connected it to my nexus 72013, my nexus 5, my nexus 7 and my nexus 4

it works perfectly on all of them

and the nexus 5 and nexus 7 2013 are on lolipop 5.0

so the issue is with the nexus player rom

my nexus player itsself is not defective

all other bt devices (remote, keyboard, mouse) work fine without disconnect

to anyone thinking of buying an ouya controller based on this thread

dont waste your money

just wait for the asus controller to arrive

(too bad they dont sell them in stores, i hate online orders always 2-3 weeks to arrive)
[Nexus Player General] furius:
Also the "measy rc11 air mouse" works very well (I have one that I used on a mini PC mk808)
[Nexus Player General] philhachey:
I just received my tronsmart air mouse http://www.geekbuying.com/item/Tron...V-Box---PC---Motion-Sensing-Games-317283.html

It works good for non google tv programs where you need to emulate touch and have keyboard input (such as chrome). On the downside:

•It has no back button

•The volume keys dont work

•no voice search

•I cant seem to keep the cat from pawing the screen.

So basically its a little handier than a mouse and keyboard. But it is definitely not a replacement unless using a full android rom.
[Nexus Player General] lazy_danzilla:
The Amazon Fire Game Controller (aka the Fire TV equivalent of the official Nexus Player pad) works perfectly. For UK people you can pick these up off the shelf at larger branches of Tescos (usually Tesco Extra.)

In addition, I use the Justop F20 3D Air Mouse with a USB OTG cable as a mouse/keyboard/tv remote combo. I had to use an app called 'External Keyboard Helper Pro' to map some of the buttons (the back button doesn't work out the box,) and you obviously wouldn't write emails on it, but it's perfect otherwise.

The Leanback interface will show a mouse cursor when a mouse (or something acting like a mouse) is plugged in or connected, but none of the icons are clickable, which is a bit annoying - so you have to have a key to do the normal remote d-pad press mapped to hand.

HDMI-CEC from TV to Nexus Player

I can confirm the Nexus Player works with a Sharp Aquos remote over Aquos.Link (CEC). Up, Down, Left, Right, Enter, Exit

The Nexus Player is receiving input over HDMI-CEC from the IR remote of the Aquos TV.

This is kind of a big deal.
[Nexus Player General] darker_slayer:
To add my experience I've found

Sony CEC to provide

-arrows, enter, back, playback controls, and home (didn't expect home)

Vizio CEC

-arrows, enter, playback controls, and back (with the exit button though instead of back ;) )

Matt,

I have the smart remote, but seem to be having the same problem as everyone else in the logitech forums:

Whenever I try to select a letter with the center button, it takes me to another screen [i.e. when trying to search for content in YouTube]. Entering text appears to work fine in apps like Netflix. I t seems problematic with global search and youtube.

I I know this has been asked to death already.. I'm sorry.. But I can't seem to pair the remote! Nothing came up automatically as it did in Stock to pair. And home + back button isn't working. How can I enable it without another device? Any ideas? Thanks!

I've tried factory reset, no go. It won't even reset my OS. It'll be exactly the same. Straight to home screen, no prompt to set up.

I've tried using that remote app, but that requires the two devices be connected on the same network, which isn't something I can do. I have absolutely no control over the player.

The remote works. I can pair it to my S3 and it'll work nicely. I can't get the NP to appear as a Bluetooth device. I think that might be the issue. Help!

I just reflashed and got the same thing. Bluetooth doesn't seem to work.. Flashed stock and got remote access back. Flash custom, lose it completely.
[Nexus Player General] jfriend33:
I like using the firetv stick remote with my adt-1. It's always on and doesn't take a few seconds to connect like the official game controller.

However it looks like even with the harmony hub and smart control, I'd still be in situations where I need a mouse.

Out of every remote in the world, what are my options to control my xfinity x1, tv, and this wannabe nexus player? I am thinking it's probably the harmony hub with the wireless keyboard.... I just wish it were smaller.

I would have no problem using one of the bluetooth mini keyboard trackpad remotes but that won't work with xfinity. Looks like my only real solution here is to ditch cable, or get a hd home run and start recording from that... Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Ps, I would advise anyone who uses Amazon instant video to just get the full fledged fire tv.
