Hi. Just wondering how to hide a pic or gallery folder on my rooted 4.3 note2? I have root explorer and Astro file on my phone. I tried moving the pic files to another made up folder but they keep showing up in the gallery. I dont want easy access to certain pics if someone pics it up and starts looking around. Kids etc. Thanks
[Sprint LG G3] Srambo217:
Suddenly whenever I open a media app the notification widget will open and stay open until I force close the app. This happens with Google Play Music, BeyondPod, Podcast Addict and YouTube. Had anyone else had this issue? It's very annoying and crowds my notification panel.
[Sprint LG G3] scottspa74:
If you mean the notification stays while media plays, that's normal and nothing new. It's a 'persistent notification'.
[Sprint LG G3] Srambo217:
There is no media playing, it just stays open in a "paused" state even though I had no content playing at the moment.

I'm trying to use the RBMC command in the BL to extract the splash screens (as I couldnt find Orange-Israel splash screens anywhere).

I authenticated myself in the BL (btw, I have an exectuable that will do all that is written in POF's wiki). when I use the RBMC command:

rbmc d:\splash.nb 500e0000 40000

alot of garbge starts to flow to the screen in MTTY.

I guess MTTY doesnt saves the file automaticly.

Please help me dumping the Splash using this method (or any other method)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Capture the output with usb-monitor and convert it to binary file.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] knfevg:
Pog, can you elaborate in this?

I used USB Monitor to log everything. Now I have a HEX and ASCII dump of every packet that cam from the TYTN. How do I save it into something usfull and how do I convert it to binary and then to BMP?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
You can do it with unix command 'xxd' (included in vim) or with a simple C program (do a bucle in a shell script for every hex-char):

int main () {
unsigned int c;
unsigned char aux[10];
int s=read(0,aux,4);
sscanf(aux,"%x",&c);
printf ("%c",c);
return 0;
}

If you don't have access to a linux box, attach the dump here and I do it for you.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] knfevg:
damnit, I wont have access to linux until next week...

I would appritiate your help in converting but I dont know if I did the dump correctly with USB Monitor.

First, it has several packakets with the commands I issued, than it has several LARGE packets with "junk" (I think thats the Splash screen dump).

However, I can export it to TXT and in TXT I see both the HEX and the ASCII part. Is that ok? If not, how do I dump the correct part?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Yes this is correct. Attach the dump and if it is useful i make the splashscreens for u.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] knfevg:
POF, attached is the zipped file with the TXT dump (in unicode).

It would be GREAT if you could help me.

If there is a need in some other kind of a dump, please let me know.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
The dump is incomplete, you only dumped 24Kb, a whole splash screen should be at least 128Kb + 128Kb more of padding. Attached is the partial bin file.

mtty is not good for rbmc'ing... the best is to use linux 'cu' comand (included in uucp) like this:

((sleep 2 && echo rbmc file 500E0000 40000 ) | cu -l /dev/ttyUSB0 ) > dump.txt
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] knfevg:
POF,

I think I've attached the wrong file

I hope thats the correct one
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
there you go, splash in .nb and .bmp :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] scorpio16v:
Hi pof.

Have tried this too, but the dump.txt contains only 46 bytes. What's wrong. :confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
mm... post the contents and we'll know :)

Probably it's failing because you have to authenticate to the bootloader prior to doing the rbmc command (or use a patched SPL which does not require it, for example latest HardSPL).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] knfevg:
Pof, THANKS!!!!!

One more question.

The secondary splash is usualy the same as the prime?

What IS SubMain splash? When does it come up?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Generally yes.

MainSplash - the one you see with the red letters at bottom when booting

SubSplash - the next one without red letters

If MainSplash and SubSplash are the same, you get the feeling that there's only 1 splash screen, but there are actually two :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gromel:
pof can you make me .bmp from dump? :-)

I can xxd to hex but don't know what's next to got .bmp :P

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
After you xxd the hex, the binary file you get is the actual splash.nb, so you can use nb_image_converter.exe to make a BMP, you can find it here:

ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/Cooked_ROMs/Hermes_SplashScreen_Pack.zip

BTW, before using xxd you'll need to convert the dump from utf-8 to ascii.

If you can't manage to do it yourself, tell me and I'll do it for you.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gromel:
Ah, now better understand.

But :P When I try iconv -f utf8 -t ascii dump -o output

then I got always error iconv: illegal input sequence at position 0

PS. In usb-monitor I can export as UNICODE or ANSI (ASCII).

I'm trying and trying and trying.... :(
[HTC One X+] Kaksou:
Hello forums !

I have particular problem with my HOX+. The problem is rather strange and I didn't encounter similar to mine on this or any other forums, but down to the middle:

I have this problem from the start I just bought the phone like this. The phone turns it self down when the screen goes to sleep / phone. There is no problem when it is in HBoot or when I disable automatic sleep, basicly when I play with the phone and use it all the time it never turns off by it self. The moment when I push the power button and wait from 5-10 sec, the phone welcomes me with white screen and logo then proceeds to the system boot.

I thought maybe its OS problem and I installed the ViperX+ with a sucess but the problem is still there.

I also went to the repair center, and they suggested to replace the battery so I agreed but the problem is still there.

Any suggestions and help will be apreacheated thank you

FOUND THE RECOVERY (See below)

Right now my goal is to go back to stock to flash the OTA Update. I am running my nandroid back up I first made when which is the 4.4.4 w/ Software # 1.58.502.1. and right now I have TWRP as my recovery.

Also can someone confirm something for me. This nandroid I am running is rooted obviously and has SuperUser on it. If I go back to the stock recovery can I still do the OTA update even though SuperUser is there and the phone is unlocked?

Also in order to get the stock recovery back on the phone I need to use ABD and the windows command prompt method correct?

Thanks
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] magicbumm328:
found this link and was able to find the stock recovery finally. I clicked "Non-WWE- Recovery Images" Ten on the site it opens I clicked the more recoveries folder at the top and 1.58.502.1 was the first one.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2701376

Now the only thing I need to know is if going back to stock recovery will allow me to update to OTA even though there is SuperUser on my device and even though I am rooted and unlock (S-on)
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
As long as the ROM is stock (nothing modified by root) and stock recovery, you can update by OTA (root okay, unlocked bootloader okay).

Another option, just relock the bootloader and run the 4.4.4 RUU. It saves you from all the hassle (finding stock ROM and stock recovery), plus installing 2 OTAs. Only reason to do it the way you are, is to keep user data (RUU wipes phone) and it also saves you from having to relock.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] magicbumm328:
Well I do have the stock ROM. Idk if it having super user on it counts as being modified by root though? If not then its fine. And as mentioned I found the stock recovery as well.

The only reason I was looking to do it this way was because I do not really know what RUU is or how to do any of it. Idk how difficult it would be to relock the boot loader then figure out the RUU thing. Idk what the differences are between that and my phone being rooted as it is now are. I'll have to see if there is a thread that explains this RUU thing to me.

Thanks for the help and suggestion too btw

On a more serious note, and as for the OP's question, pretty much every review mentions the fingerprint scanner being better, so no worries.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hanson68:
For some reason, the earlier reviews stated the S6 scanner was faster and more accurate than the i6 version, but the more recent ones are saying the opposite.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxaarraa:
hm... this is slightly worrying. If I have to reposition my finger a couple times, it's no better than swiping more than once, as is the case with the Note 4. Fingerprint scanner is one of those things that should just freaking work, or the function will be quickly discarded.

It worked really well and really fast for me the couple dozen times I tried it. (Then I got it paired with my Android Watch and set up as a trusted device so I don't need to unlock any more.)

My S5 was iffy at best and had to mull it over for a few noticeable fractions of a second (usually before it asked me to swipe again).

[MX Player] Seán Ó Séaghdha:
The Irish translation of the MX interface looks like it was done with Google Translate. It's compete gibberish. If you don't have a real translation please just fall back to English.

It's hard to convey just how bad it is, but here's the above para after it's been through Google:

The Irish translation observes as what he did with Google Translate. He is the competition gliogairnéis. If it happens that you aren't a true translation your will falling directly back to English.

I know I can manually change the language, but seriously you should never, ever rely on Google Translate unless you actually want your program to look stoopid.
[MX Player] GuestK0036:
Well you can improve Irish translation yourself here :)
[MX Player] CDB-Man:
Indeed, if you look at translation activity here, you will see that there were a couple accounts from India that decided to spam the translation project with Google Translates.

https://crowdin.com/project/mx-video-player/ga-IE/activity

[MENTION=3850543]bleu8888[/MENTION] I think you should revoke the proofreader rights of abhiavi on the translation project, and ban both abhiavi and ashish10; they look like opportunistic Google Translators. abhiavi even went so far is to validate all 713 of his own translations. If you remember when they first showed up, they asked you for free licenses.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natezire71:
In previous versions of Android, disabling the OTA was easy.

I can't figure out how to on Lollipop, though. I'm currently on 5.0.1, and just got the OTA notification for 5.1. I don't want to upgrade yet, as I'm rooted, and I don't have time to deal with it this week.

How can I disable the OTA from going? I downloaded the OTA, but it isn't listed under /cache/ in the root directory. OTAs seem to be tied to Google Play Services now--so that's why I'm asking. I can't find an apk responsible for updating other than Play Services.

The compass was off, keeping lock was a pain, and updating location was slow/jumpy. Now for the heck of it I ran my Navionics boat charting app and it ran flawlessly.
