Hey everyone!

I'm sure this isn't the place, but where else on the internet do you find more people with gadget knowledge than here?!

I am looking for a drone with certain features, that might or might not exist. I haven't been able to find it so far.

The features I'm looking for are:

- connects to existing wifi network and usable remotely through internet.

- A charging dock which it can drive into or a standby mode that can last all day without going flat.

- camera! (obviously)

The purpose is to be able to remotely check on my rabbit, as he freely roams my apartment.

If anyone has advice or can just tell me it's a pipedream, that would be awesome!

Thanks
[Off-topic] Neelkanth:
It's a challenging question and as much as I know I haven't found such an exquisite drone. But the other problem is are your pockets big enough for the price of such a drone. Best of luck.

Hello all,

I'm looking for a very specific setup that I've been having a hard time finding. I'm tempted to make my own and have messed around in zooper pro lately but I don't have that much time!

I am looking for a clock/weather widget with the following characteristics; I do not mind paying for this widget.

-Stylish / minimalist (my theme is greyscale+red)

-Clock with large font hour:minute (I need to be able to tell the time with a very quick glance so digits preferred)

-Include day and date (don't need to have year)

-alarm clock display

-current weather ideally via image (and even more ideally somehow underlayed with the time/date)

-current temperate with the high and low (ideally in a format like CURRENT | followed by the high in superscript and the low in subscript)

bonus but not necessary:

-3 day forecast

-sunrise and sunset times (ideally in a similar superscript/subscript format as the high/low weather)

-transparent background

NOTE: I do NOT care about a battery indicator but wouldn't mind one if it was well implemented.

Does anyone know of such a widget or willing to make me one for a couple of dollars?

Thanks in advance !

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amebb:
Hi

Just a very quick question..... I have a HTC One M7 that i am repairing. I have a new screen for it together with a new battery etc and even a new replacement back case.

The phone works great - screen working good etc....

Then yesterday i put the phone together - as in the back of the phone was put on and snapped shut.

All good until i switched on the phone. The phone came on, made sounds etc etc every normal apart from there was nothing on the screen.

The screen was dead.

Now, i opened the case up again and then i removed the motherboard and tried using another HTC One M7 motherboard and started the phone and the screen was working fine.

Can anyone help me with this issue please as i need to understand whats going on here and then get the phone working again.

Thanks for your help...

I want to copy some of the cab files that were put in to the phones memory by my service provider, is it going to be in the EXT rom, i am pretty new to PPC

the cab contains some SP settings n stuff which gets installed when a Hard Reset is done..

thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Rudegar:
yes it is in the external rom that operators put cab files to automaticly be installed
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] levenum:
There are two ways to get at does files:

1) Find out how to unlock / unhide your ext ROM.

2) Use total commander - not sure if it works for all phones but if you enter Extended_ROM2 in the path field it should be able to open the folder as read-only even when hidden. (The folder name may be different for different devices)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] CWKJ:
The first methods are not for the rookies.

The second method works. Total Commander is a freeware. At Total Commander's command line, type \Extended_ROM\ and you will see the extended rom.

Are you perform factory reset or flashing a ROM within these range?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrasLOHF:
Yes but I've always chosen to continue from a backup in the setup screen. I figured it would keep the data the same. All these duplicates might be why Google Fit hasn't worked for weeks for me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b00bs:
For me 8 March is from upgraded to 5.1 and 12 March is from factory reset. That's it.

It seems that even make additional copies. :(

From my theory is every factory reset we make new DNS host name for our device. Maybe that's the culprit.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
I don't think it's a biggie. It happens to me quite often, usually when I flash a new or updated ROM. External services will detect that as a different device when I connect.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theesotericone:
My guess would be every time you flash and sign in with google it creates a new android ID. Thus google thinks it's a new device linked to the same account. I have location history turned off so I'm not seeing this behavior. One thing to try is Titanium. It has a feature that allows you to restore android ID from a backup. Menu/manage android ID. Create a new one and see if it adds another device to location history. If it does that's the source of the issue. Then you just have to figure out how to flash the ROM and gapps and restore a previous ID before signing in.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrasLOHF:
As much as I have been flashing lately and looking at my list it seems that the date the duplicates started was when play services 7.0 released. Otherwise everyone on XDA would have a massive list from clean flashing ROMs. It's almost like the same issue with the set up screen. If you choose set up as new device too much sometimes the servers stop updating your back up.

deleting all data in /data/data/com.google.android.gms causes this too... I have 4 devices in the list now... the problem is that they are stored in the google account and not on the phone.

Google should allow to delete old entries. Also this messes up things in GMS.

Also, deleting that directory seems to fix the problem with google play service eating the battery.

If it's MTK-based, it's not a clone, it's a completely different device.

[General Questions and Answers] Alden Andrade:
I am currently using the tegra note 7 and I shall be switching over to the shield tablet soon. I have quute a few games on it. What is the best app to use to save my game apps and their savestate data/ progress ? I have used titanium backup before but maybe I was doing something wrong cos the game app I restored never used to have the progress saved... It was frustrating to have to do it all over again. I made sure that I checked the backup app+data option so it should have worked...

Also is there issues if apps backed up on a device using KitKat are restored on a device using lollipop?
[General Questions and Answers] TechMinerUK:
Alot of games now you can backup your progress using services such as Google Play to make sure your save games are in the cloud.

For those that wont let you back up to the cloud use Helium https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.backup or if you're rooted Titanium backup to move your app files and saves across.
[General Questions and Answers] scandiun:
The adb backup is not complete, Titanium backup is much better regarding backups. There are some games that store the savegames in Google Saved Games so you don't have to worry about losing your current game state.

[Sony Smartwatch 3] o-ellinas:
Hello I have noticed that ok Google is not recognizable from any of my devices either my smartwatch 3 or my note 3 I have already tried to set up ok google but it can recognize my voice I have tried to teach to my phone the sound of my voice but nothing I can't even pass the first object of learning any idea how to fix this problem? Thanks
[Sony Smartwatch 3] supersonic64126:
Are you sure it's your devices and not you? I find "Okay Google" to be awkward to pronounce, especially several times in a row, due to the "k" and double "g" combo. Wish we could change the hotword. I just touch the watch...find this to be easier and more reliable. Once I do that, I find the boice recognition to be surprisingly accurate, even with names, foreign-sounding places, etc. Does your watch recognize voice if you activate it by touch? If not, you may have a microphone problem. Also, if you have an accent or something, or a stutter, I'd try having someone else say it to see if it's the device or it's you. And also, make sure the watch is lit up first and out of ambient mode. I don't think it works when the watch is in low power mode. As for not working on the phone, I had that issue on the Note3 as well when using Nova Launcher, worked fine in TouchWiz. But I'm pretty sure the watch keyword detection is not dependant on the phone, since I can activate mine even when it's disconnected from my phone.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] wmurch3:
I'm having issues with my OK Google too. It's like my watch microphone isn't working. I can't do any voice dictation into the watch. It just says "Sorry didn't catch that" when I talk to it. It worked at one point and seems to work sporadically. Now it doesn't work at all.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] ppcoban:
Not sure for how long but I think it's something like 1 week that voice commands don't work any more for me.

They are opened as web searches instead.

eg. I used to say "OK Google, set a timer for 5 minutes" and the timer would start. Now it opens web link suggestion...

Same with most other voice commands that used to be really useful.

Anyone having same problem?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] mfc123:
Hi!

I bought one sony sw3 3 days ago, and have the same problem...I say the voice comands and it always do the search... anyone solved this? In my note 2 the comands are working fine, like call someone, send a text...

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stas333:
Just a quick question. How would one update from 5.0.1 to 5.1 if they are on stock rooted rom with a few tweaks such as volume mod, hotspot enabled, and show percentage mod? I guess I am more worried about erasing everything and then re-installing.

Thanks
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
Flash the stock system.img to remove root. If you are unencrypted, flash the stock boot.img. And if you have TWRP, flash the stock recovery.img.

This is if you want to take the OTA. Or you can wait until someone makes a flashable zip.

Instructions are here, under Method 2 (only flash those files I noted above. No need to flash all of them.) > http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stas333:
Thanks
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Just to correct what may be an error here...

If you are unencrypted and flash the stock boot.img, you will be encrypted on boot. So if you are unencrypted and wish to remain so, it would make sense to flash immediately whatever custom kernel you use to not force encryption.

But IMHO this is pretty much the best way as stated.

Flash system.img, boot.img and radio.img via fastboot individually, flash root (SuperSU) from recovery and boot. No wipes etc.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
If you're going to follow method 2, you might as well just do it straight with the 5.1 image and call it good.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriBeard:
So just going from stock rooted 5.0.1 to stock rooted 5.1 is the factory reset needed? I know in the past it wouldn't have been, but lollipop changed a lot with this stuff so I'm not sure.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyhulk:
Can't we simply sideload the update using Wugfresh or something and re-root? I have taken OTAs on my OnePlus One and all it does is remove root. I don't understand why I'd have to completely reinstall and wipe just to take an OTA.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You cannot sideload an OTA on lollipop if you have modified anything in system, including adding root. We also discourage using toolkits for those who do not understand how to do the steps without one, because when those people get stuck and need help, we cant simply help and give instructions.. We have to teach them EVERYTHING they didn't bother to learn first - which is a result of using toolkits as shortcuts instead of as aids to existing knowledge
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
If you fastboot flash the stock system.img, you will be good to install the OTA, with no factory reset necessary. But EVERYTHING must be stock. Recovery, and encrypted kernel/boot.img.

---------- Post added at 01:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 PM ----------

If your phone is back to 100% stock (everything, including recovery and encrypted kernel/boot.img), then you can ADB sideload the OTA. But be sure to do some research, so you know what you are doing.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A2CKilla:
Not to be rude to the veterans (I too know how to flash things manually) but you guys do realize the wug fresh toolkit does have an option to flash stock without wiping right?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriBeard:
so basically you could flash the stock 5.0.1 system.img, take the update, then root again (assuming the root method doesn't change, or using a new method after one is found?)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
Yes, assuming you have stock recovery and are encrypted.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriBeard:
Yeah, all I did was unlock the bootloader and run one of the automated rooting things, I think from chainfire, but I could be wrong. I didn't mess with unencryption or custom recoveries (yet).
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Evo_Shift:
Rooting is so easy. It requires one fastboot command after you're bootloader is unlocked(either to flash a recovery or boot into recovery temporarily) then you just use the SuperSU zip and boom you're rooted. That's why I love Nexus phones so much.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_rooter:
Not trying to start and arguement but toolkits are here to help for people with busy lives. I know how to do both methods, but using a toolkit isnt all bad if directions are followed. Just about every device out there has some kind of toolkit similiarities.

nexus has its own toolkit, htc 1 m8 has a paid software that unlocks the device, heck even the newest moto E has a toolkit. Just because there are some developers on here that dont like toolkits doesnt mean they are bad. I agree though if people mess up bad and screwed up using a toolkit thats not the toolkits fault. Its user error. Toolkits are a good thing to use if used properly. I encourage everyone I know to use toolkits. I also make sure to tell them to read it twice then go.

---------- Post added at 02:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 PM ----------

what root method for nexus? all you have to do is flash custom recovery and then flash supersu within recovery and your good
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Like i said, its fine if you know both methods.

I don't care if someone has a busy life or not. If they don't have time to spend 10 minutes reading and following my fastboot thread, well they shouldn't really be rooting. Further more, how selfish is it for someone who thinks they're too busy to learn the basics to then have to fall back on other people who may also have busy lives for hand holding through something that should be simple just because they wanted to take a small shortcut to save them 3 minutes? Learn the basics and then you don't waste our time trying to not only help you but also teach the basics - which are essentials.

My point isn't that toolkits break things (although sometimes they do) or even user error using the toolkit... My point is if something else unrelated goes wrong and we say "fastboot flash x to fix" and they then reply " what's fastboot?" And then we have to teach the basics whilst they're frustrated and panicking. That is NOT the best time to learn... Or teach

Driving a car requires a licence. Sure, you can fake a licence but I don't want to have to explain what a car is if you need me to tell you how to start the car. Especially not whilst you're late for a job interview
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_rooter:
So your saying if no one uses your fastboot method thread that they are in the wrong. I understand and agree that all users should learn fastboot, but to push your thread on everyone and then to say they shouldnt root at all if they dont is selfish. Theres always more than one method to do a task. Just because one is easier than the other doesn't make it bad.

best example and this still irks me is I knew a developer that had a thread for the ruu on the m8. he found out if you flash it twice(the same file) that it will clean install, and since it was "easier" other developers told him to take it down because its taking away people from using their method. Again i am not saying your in the wrong, but at the same time there is always more than one method, and like myself if I mess up(which i have) before I ask anything I get on here and search and search. I never ask because if ever there is a mistake done its usually the users fault. I have used toolkits for years, and still knowing how to do fastboot i prefer toolkits and never had any issues because I read the directions the minimum of 2 times. This is XDA there is always more than one way to do something. We need to support [MENTION=3110798]WugFresh[/MENTION] and his work he has done. Again dont take this to heart I am not bashing you in anyway. All I am saying is we all have options and any member on here should know that if u make a mistake which we all have at one point. We Search first (number one rule on XDA). The answers are always here in XDA. Youtube to an extent also has google back up videos on how to do stuff to. I follow [MENTION=4246643]Tomsgt[/MENTION] aka root junky on youtube, and google plus. He does these things.
