[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiesha:
Has anyone been able to figure this out? I've been trying for over a year to no avail. My current device is not rooted so I may be SOL. I found a post on another site for recording the online stream from Hoopla Digital . com but I wasn't able to get it to work.

Courtesy of zly6t

"Working solution! A little slower than what I was doing before but it isn't too hard. Captures the online stream - takes about 10 minutes to DL a 20 hour book; another 5 to convert; and then however long to chapterize. Here's what I used.

Three pieces of software:

1. rtmpDumpHelper (stream ripper)

*one program that requires three separate downloads - all extracted to a single folder*

http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/ (rtmpDump - intervenes in audio stream)

https://github.com/K-S-V/Scripts/releases (rtmpDump 2.4 patch)

http://nirsoft.net/utils/rtmp_dump_helper.html (UI for rtmpDump)

2. Pazera Free Audio Extractor (.flv to .mp3 coverter)

http://www.pazera-software.com/products/audio-extractor/

3. WavePad (chapter splitting)

http://www.nch.com.au/wavepad/

I'm purposefully leaving this a little vague because if figuring out how to use the linked software is too daunting, you probably don't want to mess around with this. But it does work!"
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wisnoskij:
How could that work, though? The audio files on the device are encoded .ts files, there is no way that they are sent over as .flv files and then encoded on your device. I would suggest looking into a audio capture app. DL the book, and then record as it plays.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiesha:
That method was for the online stream. Do you have a recommendation for an audio capture app?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wisnoskij:
Do you mean for PC then? It is entirely possible, whatever they do for PC users uses some browser based FLV solution. Your best bet probably would be to do some stream capturing off of the PC, particularly if they use some unencrypted FLV. Secondly, you could try to beg some help from encryption experts for the Android files; It really should be possible.

See my stackoverflow.com question Unless it was a red herring, they include the encryption key with the files, and even a decryption configuration file like ffmpeg likes. Strangely though, the key is encoded in base64 (solvable). But also twice as long as it should be for AES-128, which is both the designated encryption and really the only one you ever see used on encrypted .TS files. ffmpeg will attempt to use it, even with a key that is too long, but does not recognize the output so will fails. So maybe it is encoded in AES-256, in that case we need a more general decryptor to decrypt it than ffmpeg, or maybe PC ffmpeg take the first N characters of a too long key and android ffmpeg takes the last N characters?

Per Hoopla:

Question: Can hoopla content be downloaded?

Answer: Yes, but only to the apps. Downloads are not available for web browsers. All downloads are temporary; they are limited to the duration of the lending period, and at the end of the lending period they are automatically returned.

Downloaded titles are also wholly contained within the hoopla app to protect against piracy – they will not appear in iTunes or other “downloads” folders.

If users log out of hoopla on the app, any titles that you may have downloaded will automatically be removed from your device. Once logged back into hoopla, users may re-download their borrowed titles to the app. They do not need to re-borrow the titles, just re-download. A title is limited to two downloads per lending period.

I assume that if you turn your device off you will lose any downloaded material also. Maybe someone else can confirm.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neersighted:
Hoopla content is encrypted simply, but not as simply as you might hope (ie keys are not in the m3u8 file)...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] John__P:
Clarification

The full path with my Note-4 connected via USB to my Win-10 PC is:

This PC\SAMSUNG-SM-N910A\Card\Android\data\com.hoopladigital.android\files\downloads\bsa_9781433235177

.ts files are a part of a video storage system for DVDs. Hoopla breaks files into like 3000 pieces, either to make download easier or more likely to enhance security.

You can download to Kindle Fire, then play back offline with audio cord from Kindle's audio jack into a recording app of your choice on your PC but it takes 1:1 recording time to play time, still . . .
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iconoclasthero:
What is the current status of extracting audio from hoopla?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onlyreal:
How about decrypting comics (jpg)? Anyone has an idea? The files are easily downloable, just can't view it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlttf:
Hoopla can be set to download onto your external SD card. Look on card under HDHC("D":) /Android/Data/com.hoopladigital.android/files/downloads/(LLL_#############)/ 3 files(Manifest.mpd, (name).jpg, (name).mp4.

Not a normal MP$ file. Can anybody convert it to MP# or play it outside of Hoopla?

So now this is coming, how long till we get a ROM ripped and edited to work on the Nexus 6?
[Nexus 6  General] biggiestuff:
I didn't even think about that. Oh man this could be awesome. The moto tweaks are minor but so useful. I already miss some of them from my moto x 2013. I'm already drooling thinking about customized launch phrase. *crosses fingers*
[Nexus 6  General] altimax98:
I'm on the side of the Note 4 right now because of a lot of a reasons, but this could pull me back
[Nexus 6  General] LeoRex:
Well.... there might be some stuff keeping that from happening.... First, devs would have to be able to get their hands on the Moto Assist sources. I'm not sure if Motorola has that available. Sure, the BASE stuff will have to be released...like the core and kernel sources. But the proprietary stuff might be locked down. So having a native Nexus 6 ROM that has the Moto stuff ported might be either impossible or a legal minefield.

Now, it could be feasible for someone to port the ROM over... but again... we might be swimming in some questionable legal waters there as well.
[Nexus 6  General] biggiestuff:
Or just sell they nexus 6 and try to snag a moto x pro.
[Nexus 6  General] md1008:
In theory if the phone has 100% identical couldn't we just flash a ROM? Like the GSM M8 you could flash GPE Roms and sense Roms. If you were originally a GPE you would have to SOFF to do a full conversion due to differences in partition. Same if you had a sense m8 and wanted to get full conversion with OTA updates.

But let's say you have a carrier bought m8 and just wanted to flash a GPE all you would have to do is HTC Dev_unlock flash recovery and flash GPE ROM
[Nexus 6  General] Arunabh:
What I'm most excited about with this release, is that we might be able to get back covers from moto maker just like the moto x, only without the nexus logo but wtf.. Bring on those covers and I'm set.!!

There's gonna be nothing more that I'd want from this phone if that happens.

Sent from my Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6  General] biggiestuff:
My guess is that it'll be identical to the international version of the nexus 6 and not the US version that has CDMA radios and different LTE bands. Of course I'm not experienced enough to know if that will make a difference when building roms. I imagine it would. Time will tell when it finally releases.
[Nexus 6  General] rhg84:
Never had a moto x, what tweaks are missing?
[Nexus 6  General] Riktar:
Never had one either but I think they're referring to the motor voice (advanced more comprehensive version of "Ok google", moto display, and a few other features
[Nexus 6  General] biggiestuff:
One I miss right off the bat is Bluetooth profiles. It would remember the volume of each Bluetooth device I had paired. With the nexus 6, I have to adjust between each device when switching.

Wrist twist for fast access to camera

Automatic switch up speakerphone when making a call via voice command that way up don't have to click speakerphone button.

on the new moto x you can customize the launch phrase so you don't have to say okay Google.

You could voice command "where is my phone" and it would start ringing so you can locate it.

Little things but they were nice.
[Nexus 6  General] Riktar:
Damn some of those actually sound useful.

No. What you will want to do is edit the images in SystemUI_Theme_<Black/Black_Gradation/White/White_Gradation>.apk. Those apks are located in /system/app/. Or you can select a nice premade apk from here: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/themes-apps/softkeys-update-t2804742

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GuitarrassDeAmor:
I was running the safestrap that I installed off this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2720163 -- hadn't changed it since. So yeah...today my phone started just randomly turning off. I figured nothing of it until it didn't want to turn on again. I played with it, tried to backup stuff when I could boot into it (got most personal stuff, so that's good), and yeah..I couldn't. So I thought I would try flashing back to stock via Odin. Well, I started to flash back, and all of a sudden it failed. So now, I have a problem. Instead of boot looping like it was before (battery in, would vibrate in a second, flash logo for about two seconds, then go black) - I put the battery in, it vibrates in about two seconds and says Firmare Upgrade Encountered an Issue. Please go into Kies recovery and try again or whatever. If I go into Odin mode, it goes there, and then basically shuts back off, so I can't even get Odin to work correctly with it.

Funny..the whole reason I had to upgrade from my S3 was because it did this same thing, battery in, booted, then flashed logo and went black. Couldn't 'unbrick' it. Only common link is the SD card...wonder if that did it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GuitarrassDeAmor:
I can't get it to stay in download mode without going to a black screen, as I mentioned.

EDIT: I was able to get it to quickly boot in there and get the pit file flashed. What should I do now?

It's still boot looping after the pit file. When I was in the OS, it crashed and restarted the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GuitarrassDeAmor:
Okay, well, I got it into Safestrap recovery and rebooted the phone to stock. It seems to have fixed it for now. What do I need to flash back to complete stock? Get rid of safestrap, root, etc.

I am probably going to get rid of this, I'm tired of Samsung's crap with this one. Maybe buy an LG G3.

EDIT: I type that, and go into settings and the POS just goes black. FFS.

I have Safestrap and the Eclipse rom, for what it is worth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GuitarrassDeAmor:
Phone didn't reboot all last night on the charger. Still on as of right now...but haven't done hardly anything on it.

It is on NC5 right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GuitarrassDeAmor:
Did the same thing again, shut off, removed battery + turned back on, shut off again, now it is back on after same steps...this is past annoying.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Legitsu:
I am wondering if you have a physical hardware fault perhaps the NAND is on its way out

I know NC5 has some system crash issues related to knox I would try uninstalling knox via titanium backup or use the system server crash fix via xposed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GuitarrassDeAmor:
I do not see Knox in Titanium backup. Was able to get the phone to download that and browse somehow...reinstalled Xposed and rebooting after installing framework.

It is now screwed up still. Not wanting to boot, when it does, basically it seems if screen goes off it wants to reboot, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Legitsu:
all I can say is odin back to stock nk1

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95832962473399455

and don't touch anything else

if it still is crashing then its probably a hardware problem

flash using the odin pda and untick eveything else
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GuitarrassDeAmor:
Will try that when I get home. Hoping it isn't a hardware problem, but sounds like it. What is weird is this is the same thing my GS3 did, except I can't at all get that one to do any kind of booting back into anything without just restarting almost instantly (even Odin mode) so I assumed it was fully dead.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Legitsu:
it could be the partitions are messed up from using a pit

never screw with the partitions if you can help it its asking for trouble with a locked bootloader

If you can get APX mode then you'll have to work out how to flash via nvflash.

This is what you'd use for the ASUS TF100 when in APX mode and it's likely to be your only way out. Good luck!
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXlAinXx:
To exit USB boot recovery mode ( APX w/o driver installed ), simply press and hold POWER for at least 11 seconds.

The command for flash the SHIELD should be;

Are you sure you guys are not pressing the Power and Volume Up buttons as this will boot you into APX.

If your unsure Press and hold the Power button for 15 seconds it will boot up if you have pressed the Power + Volume Up Button, i found this out myself and was totally bricking it till i held the power button in for 15 seconds and watched it come back to live.

Power + Volume Down = Bootloader

Power + Volume Up = APX Mode.

Hey, since you are S-ON, flash the boot.img first and then go to recovery mode and flash the ROM.
