[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wicozani:
Many thanks to Wolverine777! I followed those basic instructions, and though it took me 4 days to finally get everything working fine, I have no Google Play Services or GAPPS errors, and have both Gmail, YouTube and Amazon Prime streaming all working just fine. Specifically, I have Google Play Services 7.0.99 (1809214-034), Google Play Store 7.3.07.K-all [0] [PR] 139935798, Gmail 4.2.1, and YouTube 4.2.16 all installed and working properly.

A few tips: 1) you can download all these versions from apkmirror.com; 2) I created the dummy -gms-2.apk files AND folders in Data/app and they seem to be preventing Play Services from automatically updating (finally; this can happen very fast, so pay attention to turn off your wi-fi after you've downloaded in order to install); and 3) when you first sign into the old Market, before you leave be sure to go into the Market's rudimentary settings and turn OFF autoupdate. I also turn off "notify" me when apps want to update, so I don't see both Gmail and YouTube nagging me to update them in the Play Store. Once you get everything setup properly, DO NOT allow Gmail or YouTube to update. They will no longer work with the version of Play Services you'll have.

The one thing I haven't yet done, is get Chrome browser to work. I just tried a version from 22 March 2015, and it stated some critical functionality was missing keeping it from opening. Will have to check a log to see what this might be. One final thing, I'm still on the original Kindle Fire OS 8.1.4, rooted and with TWRP touch 3.0.0 recovery installed despite my locked bootloader. Good luck and Happy New Year to all!

Have the SPH-L600. The rom I am on is messing with my signal badly. Haven't had service for about a week now. Went to flash the nandroid I made just incase problems arose and I get the MD5 Missmatch error. Any solutions? Whats the best rom right now for the sph-l600 or is there any other variants that are compatible with my device? Thanks for any help.

I remember reading about a tweak that would let me listen to music over my bluetooth headset. Not the stereo headset, just the mono one. Anybody know about that tweak? I read about it before I learned what the hell tweaking was. :o Now I can't find it for the life of me.

try this

put the executable file in your phone and create a shortcut for this in startmenu, it will direct all the sounds in your phone to bluetooth headset.

Thanks for bringing cool stuff like this to the phone at this early date!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] trailblazer101:
How deep are you willing to go? Because it would be awesome if you could clear dalvik-cache, since I see this, right off the bat:

: Failed to find OatDexFile for DexFile /system/priv-app/CocktailBarService/CocktailBarService.apk ( canonical path /system/priv-app/CocktailBarService/CocktailBarService.apk) with checksum 0xfbfcb9f7 in OatFile /data/dalvik-cache/arm64/system@priv-app@CocktailBarService@CocktailBarService.apk@classes.dex

EDIT: could you also make sure that you set the right permissions for the apk? I'm getting the impression that they might be off with:

msg=audit(1429397519.049:355): auid=4294967295 uid=10001 gid=10001 ses=4294967295 subj=u:r:untrusted_app:s0 pid=12605 comm="ktailbarservice" reason="memory violation" sig=11

EDIT2: We might have to disable SELinux... That's rather unfortunate/puts a rather large damper on things, until custom kernels come out at least... After starting a root shell, can you try:

setenforce 0

I don't know if it'll work, but if that goes through successfully try and launch the Edge Settings Screen again!

EDIT3: Do'h. It may have been something really simple *crosses fingers* Could you please re-download the CocktailBarService, and try doing the same thing you did last time, with right permissions, and maybe a dalvik-cache wipe if it doesn't work!?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] b-reezy:
Tried the new apk you uploaded. Getting a force close still when trying to open. I changed SELINUX to permissive, wiped dalvik, even tried deleting arm64 folder as well. No luck.

[4/19] QuickLaunch Demo And Advanced Feed Development Request For Rooted Users

I sent you a PM! I explicitly declared that permission for each activity, so let's see how it goes now! I put the same apk I sent you now on the OP, so the other testers can try it! In the mean-time, I do have something real for you guys to play with! It's the QuickLaunch window, customizable and all (from hitting the Feeds Settings Icon). I'll put that in the OP with the tag "WORKS(Kinda)"!

One thing, which is a big reason why I'm trying to do it this way-- clicking the icons launches the app, it just doesn't turn the screen back on! I've tracked it down, and it seems as if when the Feed Screen is on, it has the SCover flag set to on, manually, but when a user clicks a button from another Feed, it turns that flag back off, thus turning the screen back on. The easiest/cleanest way for us to do that too would be our Custom Feed Panel implementing the same OnClickHandler that the others do, just can't without doingwhat we're trying to do!

EDIT: Please still use the QuickLaunch apk with the tag "Signed" though for testing the replacement of CocktailBarService! My new one just does it the bad way, and had to get rid of the code for trying the good.

(There's other ways to turn the screen on, but the way I'm trying to do it does it easily, and allows for more advanced functionality!)

FOR DEVELOPERS:

If you are interested in taking what I have and running with it/collaborating, I am more than willing to send all sources of what I have so far, my resources that I've been using, along with all information gathered so far. Just ask!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Globalrebel:
Hopefully this will become available for non-rooted. :) I am DIEING to get more functionality out of the Edge API for this phone. The feed is an awesome option, but having to swiping finger is a pain in the @$$. :) A double tap on the edge or an automatic turn on would be AWESOME when Texts or missed calls are there.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Alex-V:
BTW.. can be disabled in the kernel source also.. I did that in m8 times
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] tiboric:
Liking the Quicklaunch app , are you still needing testers? or have you got all the info you need?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] friedrich420:
Exactly and imo its better if its done this way..

for anyone interested ;)

you need to edit the security/selinux/selinuxfs.c file from source

FIND:

selinux_status_update_setenforce(new_value);
#else

ADD RIGHT BELOW "#else":

new_value = 0;

So it becomes:

selinux_status_update_setenforce(new_value);
#else
new_value = 0;

or use this one ;) (from the G925F source)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Alex-V:
yeah.. that's the one I used.. I'm still for and back to root or not..means for me.. develop roms and kernels ..or use it as it is.. lol..
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Fauert:
Hii my friend, i also still :cool: , have a non rooted S6 Edge :thumbup:
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] trailblazer101:
Hey guys, I finished the QuickLaunch Feed and posted it in the Apps Folder here:

Click Me!

I did manage to get it to turn the screen on, then, with the clicking of the shortcuts, and it still launches it once unlocked (if you have a lockscreen). I am going to begin work on a music player Feed, now :)

I will continue development on more advanced Feeds, and also delve into enhancing the edge in other ways, once we Verizon users get root (or until I win the lottery and get a Sprint version ;) ). I see all these great opportunities to make it better, I just can't do anything with it until I'm rooted, since this didn't go as well as I planned. Where we are stuck at now is this, and where it would be too much of a pain for me to do without a phone of my own to test one:

We need to re-sign the system with a signature key we have access to. This includes framework, apps, and the priv-apps signed with the samsung key. Then I can go about doing what I wanted to do, but otherwise, it's a no go.

A developer who does have a Sprint or T-Mobile version with root, I can tell you the information I gathered so far. I have seen where the 'turn screen on gesture' is stored, and all these other great things, I just can't right now :P
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Alex-V:
very nice.. thanks my friend ?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Globalrebel:
This is just sounding AWESOME! I am on AT&T so will have to wait as well for Root. I was wondering if there is a possability for the edge to just turn on, on its own without the need to swipe the screen? Like when a new notification comes in it will just scroll across the edge (or maybe the icon will blink on and off until you see it and swipe).

I still feel the swipe is to hard to do consistantly and would rather use a double tap or something if the auto on isn't possible.

Hello all- I just bought one of these and I must say I love it but I am now wanting to unlock, root, etc.. but can not get my phone into fastboot mode.

I know it is hold vol. down and power and I have tried and tried (have held for different lengths of time as well) but the phone always starts up as normal. I can get into recovery no problem (vol. up and power),

I am on the L09 international model if that makes a difference.

Does anyone have way I can do this ?

Thank You, LL13-
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lynxdog:
easiest way is to :-

Enable Developer mode (tap multiple times on buildnumber in About phone

go into Developer Options and enable USB Debugging

make sure you have a working ADB setup

plug phone into computer and type : adb reboot fastboot

Flash a CM based rom. CM is caf.

You can't run a caf kernel on an aosp or stock based rom.... As far as I know.

There's custom kernels for aosp or caf... But again, you need the correct kernel for the rom you're using.

Build the ROM/kernel from CAF repositories or cherry-pick a whole lot of CAF commits from them.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twistedvegan:
Had my s6e a week now and right from the start I've noticed an issue with the screen colours on full brightness.

When in bright light something happens that makes all the colours look washed out and slightly pink. I've never noticed this on my previous galaxy devices and it's really dissapointing

It seems to be related to the auto brightness glitch as it does this whether auto brightness is switched on or not. When in bright sunlight it switches into a mode where all the colours look faded and horrible. When I cover the front camera area or turn the brightness down it switches back to normal.

I've tried changing from adaptive to cinema mode etc and it seems to make no difference.

Has anyone else noticed the change in colours or have I just got a dud?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danengland:
Sounds like the extreme brightness mode Samsung implemented on the Note 4. If so, that's how it's supposed to look in direct sunlight to make it easier to see.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twistedvegan:
Could be, looks awful tho :/
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danengland:
It does. I think the idea was to optimize contrast to make the screen visible at the expense of accuracy and saturation.

I'm having the same problem with my S7 Edge. Had it a week and then the colors just started to wash out on everything. All themes, all screens. Nothing fixes it. I hold it next to my S6 Edge with the same theme and the difference in colors is drastic. It looks terrible.

Hey, I wanted to know if it's possible to mod a server sided game to instead of connecting to the game developer server, connect to your own server, so you can reward yourself with anything you want.

I'm playing this game called deck heroes for a while and I really don't care about the pvp, I just want to finish the single player campaign but it's impossible without spending a couple hundred dollars

I prefer to buy a server or pay a hacker instead of spending 500$ for just a chance of getting better cards

is the idea possible?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Werner der Champ:
Of course you can connect to an other server if you have root and know what files to mod. The only thing is that probably (not surely) your game stats will be reverted to the old ones, because theres a backup kept on the server.:( If that's not the case, you could also simply mod the local databases:).

Hi,

I tried to install TWRP on my MTK Device (Lenovo P780 8GB ROW) and run superuser.zip but after it process it my baseband and IMEI were gone.

Following all the procedures and using different type of tools on different websites including XDA, nothing can actually fix it.

One thing that complicates the problem being solved is the missing dev/radio file contents and the /dev/pttycmd1.

Even going to META MODE by turning of the device seems to be a hassle (just a gray background nothing else.

The WIFI-BT-MAC Address information are still intact and working (good to see it)

These are the tools i used so far.

MTKDroid - detected but not able to restore IMEI due to missing pttycmd1.

-

MIUI - cannot detect phone in META MODE

-

SN Writer - cannot detect phone in META

-

MobileUncle - cannot restore my IMEI backup / said it restore and restart but still the same

-

Manually did the engineering mode AT+ command. Failed.

-

SP Flash - firmware upgrade and download all - not able to restore baseband / IMEI (havent tried to format - as these might delete the MAC-WIFI-BT data as well or worst brick the device.

What is the pttycmd1? How can I restore it? Does baseband need to be restored first prior to changing IMEI? How do I restore baseband without backup?
