[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Got in the Ballistic Tough Jacket cases today and they are not that bad at all. They feel great in the hand, the power and volume buttons have the best feel and operation of any case I've tried yet. The rubber liner is very soft, feels nice and I can guarantee it will not scratch or harm the Note 4. One major flaw is the rubber below the home button. I do not believe that you would be able to use the fingerprint scanner and just pushing the home button the rubber feels in the way.

Also this rubber will sag below the home button and at the top from just taking the phone in and out of a pocket. I don't believe that it will be long before it's all loose, hanging and saggy.

I used the rubber from the Maxx with the port covers on the regular tough jacket black & white shell.

Amazon has the Tough Jacket for $15. and the Tough Jacket Maxx for $20. so they were pretty cheap. The screen protector included with the Maxx is a cheap feeling POS that I would never even try. The belt clip seems OK but again it's something I'll never use.

I'll see how it holds up after a couple days of use and report back. Here's a couple of pictures. :p
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
No Ballistic love? :crying:

It's a good looking case. :p
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] shook187:
I hate the way the corners look on these cases. It's hilarious looking.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] tkoreaper:
I don't like the rubber or that it isn't all one piece. I'm happy with my official samsung case... not the flip one.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] munkypoo7:
Exactly. It looks like it's got 4 odd growths, one per corner which makes it look silly.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
But will it protect the Note 4 corners when you drop it? :p I'm not going to try it. :silly:

I'm already back in the Commuter case in less then 24 hours.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Here are a couple pictures of the Maxx and regular Tough Jacket side by side.

The silicone on the Maxx is quite a bit bigger then the regular Tough Jacket.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
After playing around with these two cases for a while I can tell you the regular Tough Jacket silicone is much nicer then the Maxx silicone. It does not have the port covers but it is much smaller, fits tighter around the phone and goes in and out of pockets easier. I threw some silicone "Port Plugs" on the phone (have to keep my ports covered) and will test this combination for a couple of days.

If you can live without the port covers & belt clip the regular Tough Jacket is the better choice.

Here's a couple pictures:
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] sdlopez83:
This is the best case in my opinion. This is the 3rd phone that I cover with it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Are you using the regular tough jacket or the tough jacket maxx with the Note 4?

How's the silicone near the home button / charging port holding up?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] sdlopez83:
Actually better than the one on my s3.... Tougher.lol

---------- Post added at 09:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 PM ----------

Holding up nicely so far.... Have had since the phone came out.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] sdlopez83:
Another thing about these cases... On my s3 towards the end, when I would get drunk at a bar I used to show. People how tough the case was I would throw it over my shoulder. (lightly) and let it hit the ground and show people how tough it was. I was getting a new phone anyways. Unfortunately it got stolen at a concert.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Are you using one for the Note 4?

Regular tough jacket or the Maxx?

Have you dropped it yet?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] sdlopez83:
Using the tough jacket, not a fan of keeping the phone outside on my hip..

These cases for the note 4 do have an Achilles heal.. The slim rubber corner where the pen is located. That's where it is weakest. I actually dropped it there and got very little scratches. Was dropped stomach level. Other than that I've dropped it 2 other times. Not one scratch.

Hi,

I have updated my Note 3 to Lollipop with Odin. Everything went fine. My phone upgraded to Lollipop and started.

But my phone reboots by itself every 15 seconds. Even if I don't touch it , don't start any program and leave it on the lock screen.

I tried reinstalling Lollipop but it doesn't help.

Any help please?

Thank you.

Daniel

[P3600 Software Upgrading] dta1974:
Hi everyone!!

This my first post I've being reading these forums for weeks and I got impressed with all the knowledge around here,I've been trying out a lot of the ROMS and they're all great,like I said really impressed with the pros around here.

After trying out different ROMS from HTC,LVSW and MUN I still have the same issue with my P3600 or my router.Let me tell you about it.

Router WHR-G54S firmware from DD-WRT,different firmwares installed but the problem comes when I start setting up my wireless network,security WPA-PSK,Mac filter,SSID (hidden or not)either way,the P3600 with the same parameters.....everything seems to be beautiful and compatible and now is when the big issue starts,I get on line and the router seems to freeze,or just VOIP works,no surfing or maybe yes,online radio works or it doesn't,it's like everything goes on and off.After all this the other pcs can barely get online until a reboot the wifi router.

The device works really well when the wireless networks are open and it works in my house(whenever it wants)even with WPA,MAc filter etc...

So I don't even know what to do I tried everything,firmwares,resets,reboots,updates,different settings etc...

I know is hard but,does anyone have similar issues.

Thanks so much for reading this.

You'll have a great day
[P3600 Software Upgrading] oracle40210:
Is the wireless network b or g? Have you try the registry hack for connecting to 802.11g wireless networks?
[P3600 Software Upgrading] dta1974:
It´s working

Thank you oracle40210 for your reply.

I double checked that option and it was on,what I did was when I was setting the wireless router thru the browser every little changed I needed to do I was rebooting the router,eventhough the changes were in the same part of the menu and now is working really well.

Thanks again.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmorD:
Hey!

Got a big problem. I was taking apart my OPO(had to change the display) and accidentally tore off the power and volume keys from the motherboard. They were connected with really thin wires directly to the MB. I can't solder them back because the wires are TINY to say the least.

Does anyone know if those buttons are sold anywere or is there anything I could do? I don't think you'd be able to use a Android without at least the power button :D

Thanks.

Hello,

At the moment I have a big problem, how can i stop the Notificationlistener?

Is there a good way to start and stop it at a specific time?

Or is there another possibility to add the Notificationlistener to my project?

thanks for help :)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="test.myapplication" > <application android:allowBackup="true" android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@style/AppTheme" > <activity android:name="test.myapplication.MainActivity" android:label="@string/app_name" android:screenOrientation="portrait"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> <service android:name=".NLService" android:label="@string/app_name" android[emoji14]ermission="android.permission.BIND_NOTIFICATION_LISTENER_SERVICE"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.service.notification.NotificationListenerService" /> </intent-filter> </service> </application> </manifest>

NLService:

public class NLService extends NotificationListenerService {

private String TAG = this.getClass().getSimpleName();

public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
Log.v("NL","START");

}

[Java for Android App Development] taptigo:
From a brief overview of some questions regarding this issue, it seems it stopping NotificationListenerService using stopSelf() or stopService(Intent intent) not always work as expected (you should try this though).

A simple workaround is to move the actual logic to another service, and have the NotificationListenerService start it only if the conditions for handling it are met.
[Java for Android App Development] joko15:
how can i do this i tried it but i wasn't succesful. could you give me an example?
[Java for Android App Development] taptigo:
In your original service onStartCommand pass the intent you receive (or create one yourself) and start the workaround service with it:

startService(new Intent(this, YOUR_WORKAROUND_SERVICE_CLASS.class));

Handle the intent in the onStartCommand method of the workaround service.
[Java for Android App Development] joko15:
will i have to change something in my manifest?

In my NLService I have to add the function onStartCommand what will i have to add in this function?
[Java for Android App Development] taptigo:
You'll need to add the new service to your manifest
[Java for Android App Development] joko15:
and what will come in to onstartcommand function?
[Java for Android App Development] taptigo:
The intent you send it through startService command.

If you want to understand more about services, try this from Android Developer.
[Android General] Migha128:
Dear,

Sorry for if my thread is on the wrong forum. I have a little question.

Last month I bought a Leagoo Lead 1. Its a chinese MTK smartphone. I really like the smartphone. The only thing is that the user interface is ugly. I mean. I really like the black stock kitkat interface. But Leagoo has a own systemui which makes the settings background, status bar background, quick settings bar background white.

A example of what I mean look at the attachement. (only this is a leagoo lead 7 but it has the same systemui).

Any idea?

Best regards,

Miguel
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
I know there are 100 different threads on both of these subjects but they are out of date, cluttered, and unorganized. So my question is, can I unlock the bootloader on this thing and root it, or not? Here's some info:

Model: C6606

Carrier: T-Mobile

Android Version: 4.3

Build Number: 10.4.C.0.814

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Xperia Z General] LaurynasVP:
*#*#7378423#*#*, then Service Info> Configuration (I guess).

If there is written Bootloader unlock allowed: YES, then you can proceed futher for bootloader unlock proccess,

If there is written Bootloader unlock allowed: NO, then your bootloader is hard-locked and you can't unlock it, it's impossible to make it unlockable.

If there is written Bootloader unlocked: YES, then congratulations, you've unlocked your bootloader!

If your status is YES and you want to get tutorial, how to unlock it, quote my message and I'll reply regarding your question.

Hope I helped
[Xperia Z General] kingvortex:
The C6606 has a non-unlockable bootloader. You can look in the service menu as explained above, but it's definitely permanently locked.

Sent from my C6603
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
Well that was a waste of $130 then. What about root, recovery and ROMs? Any hope for that?
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
Got rooted by using TowelRootv3, now to see if TWRP can be installed and such. I'm guessing the locked bootloader just keeps me from flashing kernels on this phone right?
[Xperia Z General] kingvortex:
You can use XZDualRecovery.

Yes, you're correct. You cannot flash custom kernels so can't flash any custom rom that requires a custom kernel, such as CM, AOSP etc.

Sent from my C6603
[Xperia Z General] deerhurst:
I have a C6606 with a custom ROM and use TWRP. I run Rajeevs 4.4.4 ROM with no issues.

As mentioned before no custom kernels with locked bootloader. Stock based only.
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
Data, WiFi and WiFi Calling aren't an issue?
[Xperia Z General] deerhurst:
Data and wifi are fine. I've never used wifi calling since I have unlimited talk and text and have cell service most of the time and don't really care when I don't and wifi is not available when I have no cell service. I know I no longer have wifi calling apps or what not. I finally have no t-mobile junk on my phone. It is nice.
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
Thanks for the input, guess I will check that ROM out. Been trying to get a recovery installed to no avail.
[Xperia Z General] deerhurst:
His ROM has TWRP in it. Install XZDual Recovery, back everything up and follow his instructions. I like his ROMs the best because there is no need to flash the kernel separately. My last Z bricked its self about 3 reboots after flashing a stock kernel with the flashtool.
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
My guess is that I have to flash a new firmware before flashing this ROM right? I'm on 4.3 right now.
[Xperia Z General] deerhurst:
Nope. Your ROM version is android 4.3 right now. Flashing the new ROM will update the necessary stuff. On first startup you might see messages like updating NFC drivers and so on.
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
Awesome thanks man! Installing dual recovery now and getting ready to flash.
[Xperia Z General] deerhurst:
No worries. Let know if you need anything else Rajeev's 4.4.4 aroma rom is a great place to start and is very bug free.
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
Well I can't get recovery installed because I can't find fastboot drivers. Tried downloading flashtool and it won't even start downloading. Any help on that would be greatly appreciated.
[Xperia Z General] deerhurst:
Hmm. I never needed flashtool. If you are rooted I believe there is one that you download the app, install it and have it install the recovery. I just got off work after the shift from hell and 12 days on and another 9 to look forward to so Im going to bed. Ill look for the one I am talking about when I get up if you have not found it by the. It will be in the dev area here.
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
Don't worry about it, get some rest. I got everything going now. Just needed the ADB files (not fastboot) and I got recovery installed, making a backup and will be flashing shortly. Thanks again for all your help man!
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
This is why I asked about data. After flashing the ROM, I had no data at all. I didn't know I had to manually add the APN myself.

Also, none of those ROMs contain a radio that has a baseband that allows T-Mobile LTE. If you're on T-Mobile, you're stuck with 3G or H+. So it looks like I'll be sticking with stock from now on.
[Xperia Z General] deerhurst:
Youll have LTE. Everyone told me I would not but I always did. I always had to go into settings and download the data settings.
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
I'll check it out again later then. So you're on T-Mobile too?
[Xperia Z General] deerhurst:
I am. I run a C6606 tmo branded XZ as well.
[Xperia Z General] jedisurfer:
is there a ROM with tmobile wifi calling? I need that as inside the house my reception is not good.
[Xperia Z General] spc_hicks09:
As far as I know there is no custom ROM for a different variant (C6603, C6602), that would run on the C6606 and would have working WiFi Calling. Unfortunately I think we're all out of luck.
[Xperia Z General] muhammadahmadmujtaba:
Yes, you can. I have done!

WIFI calling function will not work ofcourse but if you are not satisfied you can flash stock firmware anyday using XPERIA FLASH TOOL. You need to unlock the bootloader using official Sony Method. If you can unlock the BL which I was able to.

Then you can download and install Cyanogenmod 13,12,11,10. (C6603) - Yes, it has issues, so I switched to.

SlimKat 4.4.4 - YUGA (C6606) - NO BUGS AT ALL.

Also do remember to flash SGAPPS from their repository no the opengapp.org gapps.

Big difference I found is that Stock OS on new flash takes around 500-700MBs of RAM where SlimKAT takes only 350MB w/o GAPPS and 500MBs GAPPS.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badytosk:
Every time I connect my Shield tablet to a TV and switch to console mode, my controller disconnects. I'm on Lolipop. Any ideas how to fix? Or... is this normal behaviour? Should I just go return it to shop?

Only way how can I reconnect the controller in console mode is by pulling down the notifications and try to hit the game controller button (after which I connect it again). But trying to find that button on a black screen is a pain... And yes, of course I tried forgetting the controller and re-adding.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CM17X:
On lollipop this is normal. Every time you switch to console mode it gets disconnected. Just press the nVidia logo again and it should work.

I'm facing now i'm strange behavior. for me the cursor start going from the bottom to the top of the screen without even touch the stick, i have to turn it off and turn it on again for make it go for some time.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huckjam:
Yup this happens every time. When you switch to console it sleeps the tablet and you have to relogin and turn you controller back on. But all you have to do is press the NVIDIA button on the gamepad and it will reconnect you don't have to actually goto the menu to press the gamepad button. The gamepad button in the notifications window should only have to be hit the first time you ever sync the controller. After that you should always be able to connect the gamepad by just pressing the NVIDIA button on the gamepad and it should just turn on and instantly be connected mine usually connect before the green light even comes on.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badytosk:
factory reset solved it

So just to let you guys know - factory reset solved the problem - now Im able to connect my controller just by pressing the nvidia logo. Before I had to resync it everytime when I changed to/from console mode.
