[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodnok1:
I used ice packs to cool old phones when using as hot spots and they lasted many years. I doubt much if any moisture is inside but you can pop the back off relatively easy with a pry tool(pick basically) if you want to check.

If you left it there for many hours I might be concerned. Now I use a usb fan designed to cool tablets or small laptops I picked up for under ten bucks.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete101:
There was definite moisture on the back of the tablet I wiped it of. Which makes me think that inside the cover there must be too however is that moisture from the hote air already inside the tablet that just exists? Or is it new air which is drawn to the cold surface, the question is if I'm inside my room with just the normal air surrounding me maybe humid slightly can it get in via the headphone jack or the micro usb port?

Remember basic physics moisture and water vapour is drawn to cold surfaces and if there was definite moisture on the outside of the tablet where the ice pack was surely the inside behind the cover will have some too, how much I do not know however I cannot ptry the back open as I'm still under warranty and it'll invalidate it so I can't check :(

If thee is much air actually inside the tablet that definitelytinto water vapour condensation and stuck to the surface temporarily however when it heats up again it'll evaporate back into the air I presume but first as a liquid. Then. Back as a gas floating in the air inside, I doubt there was much if inside.

My worry is simple physics would state that even if the air from otside didn't get into tthe device the air inside already contains some moisture, the ice pack on outside would make the condensation occur and thus go to the back of the inside back cove rand surrounding metal parts which are colder, when I remove the ice pack ats up turning that replaced condensation into liquid (on the back of the inside of the cover) which when heated up enough should go back into the air as normal assuming 100% transder, it seems that all the moisture inside the tablet that's floating inside the hot air will be drawn to the ice pack spot inswhere the battery is. The danger part is when u remove the pack and the condensation then then turns back into liquid that's when it can get into important parts and corrode I won't know this for at least a year without opening itplus it may rust. When it turns b ack into a gas and stays in the air inside the tablet is that sufficient for it not to do any damage or is the damage done already?

I have to assume that when the condensation turns into liquid before it then is reabsorbed by the gas in the air inside the tablet it'll have done some damage. I'm not really sure how. Long that will be.

Does anyone know physics better and able to give me a better understanding ould have occurred inside the tablet?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
You basically have the answer right. As the device is used the heating and cooling of the components will expand and contract the air molecules inside the device causing air to be drawn in/out of it. This allows a relative equilibrium between inside and outside air in terms of humidity so that's how moist air is in there to begin with.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WelshnThirsty:
I don't seem to have a problem with the temperature. Mine has the Samsung cover on it, so there is an air gap between the back of the tablet and the table.

I've had the P900 since September and use it 4 to 5 hours a day. OK the temperature here in Bahrain / Saudi is not in the 40°C yet, but it doesn't feel hot to the touch with use.

Is there a way to exatract zip files like you can on a gs5
[XDA Assist] Negan:
I assume you're referring to the Note 4 edge? If so you should be able to extract files easily with a variety of file manager apps like root explorer or even ES file explorer. If this is not what you're asking for please reply with more information.

Thank you

Guys.

firstly in so many apps when I need it most, for example when I'mtyping now the clipboard ffeature is just not their... I don't get it... why???

I mean the one where you select on the clog is it? Lol and it gives different options like speech input floating keyboard etc...

also when I press and hold on text to copy it only one arrow shows a lot of the time, again what I mean is we could use the two arrows on either side of the word for example and move them to highlight more text...

I have recently revert my HTC One S to the Stock official JB ROM, something like 2 weeks ago. This evening I have received an update message for 3 apps with my surprice as I was thinking that the One S was without update from years....

Are there new updates or just old ones that I have just received today..??
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backb0ne5p1d0r:
Hello everyone,

So today I successfully converted my HTC One M8 GSM into Developer Edition (4.4.4). Then updated it OTA to Lollipop 5.0.1.

Then I downloaded my apps and everything.

Some of my apps say that there is no Internet connection even though some other apps and the browser are working fine. Kik for example isn't working.

Ask.fm isn't working.

They DO WORK over mobile network though. But it shows no Internet connection through WiFi.

note that both of these apps are working completely fine on my Nexus 7 connected to the same network running Lollipop as well.

I tried rebooting the phone. Didn't work.

They work if I use VPN.

any suggestions on how to fix the problem? Thanks in advance!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IAmSixNine:
Try rebooting the wifi router.

After so many attempts of flashing different ROMs, rebooting my router, trying everything. Lol I found out that if I set it to Static instead of DHCP it works, BUT only uploading files doesn't work on many apps.

Who knows maybe I'll try factory resetting the router later ;-;

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomashaker4e:
Is still CFAutoRoot still the only way to root our devices? Note 3 and S5 could root with TowelRoot and not void their warranty, we still cant :( Are any of the devs working on a workaround for this?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwk8412:
Currently CFAutoRoot is the only way to root your Note 4 at the moment, so this means you will lose your warranty if you rooted your Note 4. However many people are saying that tripping KNOX doesn't mean Samsung will not fix your phone if you have a hardware issue unless they can proof that the hardware issue is caused by the software you installed or rooting it.

I think developers are currently working on it, but I guess you just need to be patient. Hope I solved your question.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JagDave:
There is no workaround for knox.

Knox is a physical fuse (that meets DoD security standards), if you tamper with the secure knox box or root your device the fuse blows.

Therefore, by rooting your device you have physically damaged your phone and your warranty is void.

Here in the UK, we are under the false impression that by rooting we have not physically damaged the device, but in fact we have. Thus, if Samsung so chooses not to repair devices under warranty, we have no recourse.

Most important information missing: "at present"

Most important information missing: "at present"

In the past, there were countless workarounds for achieving boot without tripping Knox.

You didn't do any physical change. Samsung did, nobody else.

I guess we need to be patient; developers will concentrate on Lollipop - doesn't make much sense breaking your brains for rooting a firmware which will be more or less obsolete in a just few days.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomashaker4e:
I guess you are right, i mean i thought that Lollipop would be out like a month ago, probably devs too, but i hope they start working on a workaround as soon lollipop is out, and that should be any day now, even official lollipop user manual is up on samsungs web :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thecupman:
Last night I was on my nexus before I would go to bed. I opened the franco kernel app and then noticed that r6 was available for download. I downloaded and flashed it and was about to go to sleep when I noticed the notification light that my phone was charging. I thought it was neat then tried to get some sleep, but my promised sleep did not come quick. After a good chunk of time had passed, I thought that my lack of sleep was caused by the green light that was barely noticable. I searched and searched in the app to try and find an option to disable the LED, but could not. I then decided that the best way to get rid of the light, would be to flash the older r5 kernel so I wouldn't have to see the light anymore. I hit flash and my phone rebooted and then brought me to the bootloader. I attempted to reboot but I could not. I've tried using adb and nexus root toolkit to get my device to work again, but they can't seem to find it without the correct drivers. I installed Motorola device manager, nothing. I tried to follow the instructions in the toolkit to get the correct drivers installed but I can't continue with the need to enable debugging, which I cannot do from being stuck at the bootloader.

Under bootloader logs, I have the following messages:

Invalid boot image size!

failed to validate boot image

Fastboot Reason: Fall-through from normal boot mode

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
USB debugging is an android setting. It can only be used when android is running. If you had USB debugging on, it would make absolutely no difference in recovery or bootloader so don't let that step stop you.

From the logs, it sounds like your kernel download is corrupt or didn't flash properly. I had a similar message when I flashed a partially downloaded recovery image today.

Just fastboot flash a complete boot image
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thecupman:
I tried that last night by launching adb and doing 'adb devices' but my device is unrecognized and I am unsure of how to go about fixing that.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Tried what exactly? Adb and fastboot are two different things. Adb works in android or recovery only. Fastboot works in boot loader only. Boot to boot loader and do "fastboot devices"
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thecupman:
Ah that was my mistake. But the fastboot devices command just returns a new line for a new command to be entered in
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
That probably means there is a blank line between them - showing that no device is found. Unlike Adb it just gives a blank line instead of "no devices".

Probably means a driver issue or cable issue. Try different USB ports / cables if you can. Check to see if there are any yellow triangles in device manager too.

I'm new to this phone so I don't know where the drivers are if you need them. If I ever find them, I'll port my nexus 5 Adb and fastboot thread over here. Unfortunately i use Linux at home so I don't really have a driver issue.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thecupman:
Oh, so if I were to use Linux I wouldn't have to deal with missing drivers? I'm assuming that's the issue since no matter which port I use, 'Connect USB Data Cable' doesn't change
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I can't say for sure. In Linux you may need to add UDEV rules. I didn't though. My bootloader is just recognised.

Please do check your device manager though.

I'm sorry i can't help more right now. I'm going to bed.

Hello everyone! Can you share your own experience with multitasking and multiwindow apps on Note Pro 12.2? Which apps are you using and why?

Thank you!!!

Look here: Anything better than Multitasking Pro by OryonCorp?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
The thing to remember about forcing applications to do windowed mode is that some may not render properly when the window is scaled. Sometimes text or graphical elements will stretch as the window proportions are changed. Most applications will still function but the look may change when in window mode as a result.

Also, in the case of a multiwindow patcher like Spere is linking to another thread when the application is converted it's signature changes breaking the link to the Play Store as a result so you'll no longer get update notifications for it. Spere mentions this in the thread that was linked to.

Personally I don't use multiwindow too much because I don't find it as useful as I had hoped. I'm the type of person that looks for efficient ways to do things and since the tablet isnt the ideal means for me to do the production type work that I like to do I just don't find it beneficial . . . so i end up using my macbook or my workstation at work. Essentially my main use for multiwindow on my Note Pro ends up being video watching while browsing or for keeping a Hangouts chat window open while doing something else. Occasionally I'll pop open a window for ES File Manager or something while composing an email but other than that . . meh . . Not used much.

If it were easier to change to windowed mode like it is on a Note 4 with the window proportion being locked but scaleable that would be nice but we don't have that functionality yet on the Note Pro.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ioannis66:
Can you tell me what do you mean? An example maybe?

I am looking for a way to make more apps to be able to appear on the "multitasking pane" so I can have the screen splitted in 4 areas. Any help with that?

Can we also have 2 instances of chrome in 2 areas and 2 other apps on other areas of we split the screen in 4?

Thank you very much for your answers!!!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
With regards to the Note 4 mutliwindow being different it's a mixed bag . . . Many of us Note Pro users like the pen window functionality and the ability to slide in a panel from the right edge of the screen that has icons for all mutiwindow enabled applications that can then be dragged onto the screen to create an instance of it. You don't get the same thing with the Note 4; what you get is no pen window support, and the right side menu has to be accessed via a long press of the back key rather than a simple swipe gesture.

What you do get with the Note 4 that I really want is the ability to be inside any mutiwindow enabled application FULLSCREEN and by a gesture from the upper right corner of the screen inward, grab the upper right corner of the application and create a windowed instance of it. This feature essentially allows you to go from fullscreen to window, back to full screen . . AT WILL. You cannot do that with a Note Pro.

Bear in mind that because I'm not a bluetooth keyboard user multiwindow is of no real major benefit to me other than for content consumption type stuff (videos in windows, chat windows etc.). Since I do not use an external keyboard, as soon as I need to type in any application I must deal with an onscreen keyboard and at that point I hit a roadblock with regards to available screen real estate. Having a small floating onscreen keyboard only goes so far to mitigate the issue. This is not an issue for those who are using this tablet as a laptop replacement and have a bluetooth keyboard since there's no need for onscreen keyboard overlays.
[Firefox OS General] elkedra:
After flashing Firefox OS on my ZTE Pulse (T790) I decided to buy the Open C from JBHifi. The software is an Australian version (FFOS_AU_ZTE_OPENCV1.0.0B01). I wrote to ZTE Australia about compatibility and updates. This is their reply:

"The Open C is not compatible with either the EU or US firmware versions or tools. We have our R&D teams working on a Tool for the AU version (we already have an new firmware that is for developers but need the end user tool before that will be made available.) Please contact us again in a few weeks to see if these tools have been released."

Something to look forward to I guess.
[Xperia Z3 General] Flava0ne:
I just received my Unlocked D6603 Xperia Z3 earlier this morning, which I ordered directly from my local Sony Store and backed up its firmware using PC Companion and Flashtool. I previously had a D6603 that I purchased locked from Rogers and just wanted to share this with my fellow Canadians since no body else was able to provide and share this because it's different from the Generic Global firmware I've tried on my Rogers Xperia Z3. But I'm not sure if it's the same as the Generic US firmware because I've never tried it, nor really wanted to because it's a customized version. This is the official version directly from Sony Style Canada and your local carrier's APN settings should automatically be setup once turning on your device after flashing it with this firmware. Tested with a Rogers & Fido nanoSIM cards and both APN settings for each carrier were installed upon turning on the phone.
