Hi folks

As the title suggests, has anyone gone through lynda (waheey) to learn java for android apps/games?

If so, did it start you off well, or did you find yourself going elsewhere to learn up on getting started?

Cheers in advance, as this could save me a lot of time!?
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] TreffyCat:
Thank you :)
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] ursar:
A fair quantity of knowledge can be assimilated from such tutorials, if you use them properly.

Go ahead. Also, there is an impressive quantity of tutorials on YouTube.
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] myral:
Not sure about lynda but I've taken android studio courses on udemy and found some of them are really good.
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] THGDev:
Well, I recommend free Android Course by Google on Udacity. It quite good and very suitable for beginner. If you want to have a solid Java background, maybe consider some Java books or online tutorial. You do not need to learn everything, you just want to have a little knowledge and start making your own project. Along the path, you will learn so much more effectively.

This Udacity link may help you

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IndeXez:
Hello. I can't find anything about this problem. I want you to help me.

Everytime I press the power button to go to sleep my s3 takes one second break and then the screen goes off. What is the problem?

Some information:

CyanogenMod 11 (SNAPSHOT M12);

GT-I9300;

Stock kernel;

No changes to CPU.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disclwd65:
try and re-flash or flash nightly build, with stock kernel. that should fix your problem
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IndeXez:
Nope, it doesn't fix it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannah Stern:
What do you mean?

Is this problem UNUSUAL? - maybe it's intention‼ ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disclwd65:
did you try an different kernel other then stock like Boeffla/archikerel/arter97?

or maybe a different rom not cm but aosp/omni/slim

i do believe it's an software issue rather then hardware
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IndeXez:
I mean, that if I want my phone to go to sleep it takes a second (screen stays on for a second) and then he sleeps. No matter if I press the power button or double tap the status bar.

Please check the Settings.

Example:

If S-Voice by Double HOme Button is activated, going to the Home Screen has also a short delay.

[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohammed fayed:
Hello there!

I have a question that I hope you could help me with getting an answer for it.

I have a desire 816 rooted with init.d support & system write enabled.

I know there is no S-Off for our device yet.

I created an ext4 partition on my sd card to expand my internal storage. and chose to give mounts2sd a try..

Installed Mounts2sd. gave it superuser access of course &installed the script with no problem

then I rebooted my device and nothing happened, then I checked the log and it said that "The script has been invoked without super user permissions!"

Why did this happen? should the device be completely s-off to be able to run mounts2sd scripts correctly?

what do you do to expand your internal storage? or are we stuck with only using Link2sd only?

Thanks in advance guys :)
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohammed fayed:
installed link2sd and then the mounting scripts & rebooted but after another reboot I got this message after a quick reboot it's gone..

I've searched for a solution, some says I shouldn't turn off my phone the normal way but reboot via link2sd to avoid this issue. but this is annoying really! anyone having this issue?
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robert_rcr:
Getting Link2SD working was truly a pain. I got it working after several tries and I am still not sure how I did it but works and is able to mount the EXT3 partition after regular boot. OK so here is what I did and hope this helps. I partition my SD card (FAT32 and Ext3) at first I was able to only get it to work with quick boot. I had encryption enable and that didn't seem to play nice with Link2SD so I did a factory wipe. After the first boot and getting all the updates I turned off the device and booted to recovery(TWRP 2.8.4.0) and use adb to setup wp_mod.ko. I booted the phone and ran Link2SD scrip and restarted. Voila! I was able to link my apps to the second partition on my sd card.

Side notes:

ART runtime didn't seem to play nice in my case.

Getting Link2SD Plus is helpful it allows you to link "internal data". Very useful if you use the Facebook app that can eat up lots of storage.
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gremy1987:
I install Foldermount from the play store it really help me with large files for installing games like Real Racing or Wild Blood, also I moved manually the Thumbnails folder of the camera and many more in orther to free my internal sdcard. The only problem you will find is that it is a paid app. So it's up to you.

I did it and I'm good with the choice.
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohammed fayed:
I disabled system write protection using wp_mod.ko since I rooted my device & enabled init.d support too.. I don't know what the problem that the ext partition isn't mounted before boot..

Thank you for the tips :)
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohammed fayed:
I'm using foldermount.. It's an amazing app

but link2sd or mounts2sd are for linking or moving the apps apk,dalvik cache & also data if you choose that to ext partition..

with foldermount you can link data or obb folders as they tend to be large with some games but I'm asking for link2sd or mounts2sd to increase my internal storage...
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robert_rcr:
I understand you are rooted and have write permissions but it doesn't hurt to try this.

http://xdaforums.com/desire-816/development/mod-enable-init-d-stock-kernel-vm-t2987126

Flashing this also fixes permission to SD card to enable apps like Titanium Backup to write to the micro SD card.

because this is my first topic-post, I just wanna say, GREAT SITE!!!

ok..back to my question (btw I need alot to learn when it comes to tweaking wm5 /ppc, so srry if i sound dum, not that I am but ok..whatever.. owyeah..if my English is bad..srry im just a dutch ass guy)

ok..

I unlocked my extended rom (thx to this site;)) and I thought..what if I just trew some .cab 's in my extended rom, edit the config.txt, hard reset and violá, the programs are installed automatically..but unfortunately it didn't work.. (no im not a script kiddy..I did for about 1,5 year an computer study (in NL it calls a ICT-study) *Btw..I did get my diploma;)) Back to the point *i talk to much, I guess..LOL*

This is a example of my config.txt

What I want is; when I hard reset my ppc (and I put some of my own CAB. 's in the extended rom) I want those programs to install automatically..

so if you have any suggestions, please post them..

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wpbear:
First the CAB must be SIGNED.

Also the ROM must have the autorun.exe feature to tell it to run on HR, also some have a preconfig run cooked into the actual OS ROM too.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
you need to cook your OS rom (or flash a cooked OS which already does this) to allow non-signed CAB files to be installed.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fvig2001:
Hi.

I pre-ordered my Note Pro (P905) and it will hopefully arrive next week because the store I bought them from sells them a lot cheaper and it's not a popular model. So anyway, here are my questions.

1. I've read conflicting reports about the on air updates. I've read that it makes the phone act worse (hangs and stuff) that's why it's apparently better to just block it and then use towelroot instead of c.f. root. Is this true? I kind of don't want to trip KNOX but I'd probably be willing to do so after a week since warranty is terrible after that period (Think that it would take months to replace the phone).

2. Since we can modify the DPI of all applications through Xposed modules, is it possible to adjust the grid size of Touchwiz to put more stuff on screen? I prefer using Touchwiz because of multi-window.

3. Tripping Knox is only bad if you need warranty right?

4. The basic things I need to check on the Note Pro are:

A. Try Injustice Gods Among Us to see if blue screen happens on stock rom

B. Stylus test

C. Camera test

D. Phone Test

Is this right? I'm only familiar with the blue screen of death issue on some models.

5. Freezing the magazine module in Titanium Backup effectively gets rid of it right?

6. What's a fun thing to do with my old Galaxy Note 10.1 (2012) 3G once I get this phone?

7. Does chromecast work on this device? I've some reports that say it doesn't.

8. Since there isn't really a custom rom for this device, is it easy to get into? I've coded applications for android and have flashed custom roms for other phones in the past. I'll probably just remove fluff from the system and update the kernel or something.

9. If I use Nova instead of touchwiz, are there applications that can sort of act like multi-windows like MX player being a small window and movable?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spere:
Multi window and pen window features got nothing to do with TouchWiz launcher. You can replace TouchWiz launcher with Nova, Apex or what ever launcher you want without losing those features.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
1. Most of those issues are related to freezing or not freezing KNOX. (I can't remember which one of the two caused the issue, someone else may be able to fill that in). My DBT p905 is up to date and has no freezing issues. But it's not rooted.

2. MultiWindow (and penwindow) is an overlay app, not part of Touchwiz. The only think that doesn't work properly without Touchwiz is the S calendar widget and MyMagazine. The Spen and everything else isn't related to Touchwiz. You're always better off using Apex or Nova, as they're about 500MB RAM lighter than Touchwiz, and support themes and customisation.

3. Right. And if you want to use the secure KNOX container.

4. The BSOD issue affects the Exynos and AT&T variants, not the p905. You've got the rest covered, pretty much.

5. So does using a launcher other than Touchwiz. My Magazine is part of Touchwiz.

6. I use my old TF700T and Tab 2 as backup devices. The TF700T serves as a 'I can't risk damaging or loosing my NotePro so I'll take this', and my Tab 2 does its job as a navigational device.

7&8. No idea

9. See 1. Multi&penwindow are apps. I use Apex and install it before anything else (I haven't seen Touchwiz since I bought it) and Penwindow and Multiwindow work perfectly fine.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
For #8 - I'm not sure about ROMs for the 905 but all I can add since Spere and Shadowlea pretty much have it all covered is that for me it took so long for ROM development that I did a ton of tweaking using Xposed modules and freezing of applications/services using Titanium that once a ROM that I wanted to try did roll around for the SM-P900 I didn't feel it necessary to switch to it. Early on the device was priced high and that delayed development quite a bit. I suspect that form factor is also a contributing factor to lack of development.

You can do quite a bit short of theming with Xposed on these things. Not everything in Wanam's module works (custom color themes for quick settings/notification panel especially) but if you're into rooting there's definitely a lot of potential for customization without ROMs.

Hi Everyone

I've got a HTC One M8 which I bought off a forum which was already rooted and runs GPE.

Everything has been fine, but I've been receiving the notifications to update to Lollipop, which I'd like to do. I click on the update and it downloads it. When it goes to install the update the phone reboots and boots into TWRP. I click on install and select the update zip. but I then get an error, please see the attached images.

Can anyone shed on any light on whats going wrong?

THanks in advance fo all replies
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
1) Its the update to 4.4.4 that is rolling out for AT&T, not 5.0.

2) You need to re-install stock recovery in order to install OTA. Also, the system needs to be stock (stock ROM). Root is okay (although you will lose root). Unlocked bootloader is also okay.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shooter999:
Hi thanks for the reply.

I'm based in the UK, so not sure that applies to me?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I'll notify the mods to move to the correct section.

My 2nd point from Post#2 above still holds. You can't install an OTA with custom recovery (TWRP). You need to install stock recovery for your version from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2701376

Also need to restore to stock ROM, if its been altered by root in any way.

"Hard brick" or "brick" means you had to open the phone to recovery (JTAG, replace motherboard, etc.). Is this what happened to you?

---------- Post added at 01:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 PM ----------

Failed how? Did it give you an error message about the phone being modified?

You need to be on the stock ROM (no system files altered by root) in order to OTA.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenferrari13:
I didn't have to replace any hardware. I guess it was more of a soft brick cause it would show splash screen and then freeze.

Hay varios parches dando vueltas en este mismo foro, pero la verdad es que sólo logre meter uno a un Galaxy S2 con JB. El parche para KK no me funcionó en el L50, de hecho, antes de empezar a instalarle roms internacionales, quiero asegurarme que traiga el chip NFC porque fuera de eso, el tel funciona bárbaro y no se justifica cocinarle otra ROM.

Yo creo que la pista de que si tiene NFC o no es la tapa de la bateria, he visto algunas imagenes en donde en la tapa hay una especie de lamina que hace contacto con una ranura en el telefono, cerca de la camara.

Yo tengo el LG L50 D213 (Venezuela, Operadora: Digitel), la version de 5MP de camara y tampoco encuentro el NFC por ningun lado, ni siquiera encuentro pistas de esto en los menus ocultos, en mi opinion, este modelo en especifico no tiene NFC.
