I don't know if this is disappointing but I have tested this method during the weekend and it does not work. I have definitely inserted the shim under the card so to push the contacts up. After some time my card is partially lost meaning some programs will not run. This morning I'm in the office and I have replaced the shim to sit just under the contacts and not under the entire card. I will keep you posted although I don't trust it will work.

SD troubles

hi guys,

ive been looking at these SD card related threads in the past and was thankful that my hermes seemed fine...

UNTIL

the speaker connection popped out and i opened the phone to connect it back up. everything when fine and the speaker is working but the sd card refuses too show up. now ive tried putting paper under and above the SD card and ive also changed my ROM to two different WM6 flavours. im sure all the connectors are plugged in but i really need my SD card to be shown.

Anybody experience something similar or have and idea's on how to get it working again. it only stopped working after i removed the back panel, connected the speaker back up and then closed it.

thank you,

Drooch
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Not much to suggest other than open up again - double check connections and hard reset if it still does not work.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] drooch:
ive checked the connections and they seem fine, i really cant put my finger on what has changed from me opening it and then closing it. the only difference is that there is no void sticker anymore! is there anyway to see if it still see's the sd card slot or if the OS diesnt even think its there.

Ive tried HR and ROM changes, so its something hardware wise.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Maybe you said, but does the card work ok on a PC card reader? Just wondering if the card formatting is corrupted?

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] barrr:
Again, after rechecking this method, putting two pieces of paper just under the contacts area of the card I still get the "once every 6 hours" normal card failure. I just remove the card, wait 5 seconds and insert it again. That's it for me.

Hi All!

Two interesting discoveries..!

First of all, so far, so good.

I did not have to reboot my once since Friday. Today is Monday, and not one single freeze. Normally, I like to reboot every few days just to 'clean it up', but I am going to leave it until it freezes.

Friday evening, Saturday, Sunday, this morning...

Not one system hang.

However, I did take a few pictures that came out black. That's the bad news.

I have not looked at other threads yet, but as Mike alluded to, above, there IS something wrong with the light sensor.

Remember how I said I had problems photographing my leaky car door, but then other pics were fine?

Well, yesterday my father said to me that he took a few pictures of items in his showroom, and some items would NOT be able to be photographed!!! He said that he has some gift items with SPARKLES, and he could successfully capture photos of items without sparkles, but when she shot the sparkly items, he saw black.

Then I thought about the pictures I was taking, the pictures WERE of dripping water from my car door.

I think that a unit that hangs, or an SD card that's not recognized, MAY be a totally separate issue than black pictures.

But that still doesn't explain how I was able to take all sorts of photos when my thumbnail pressed on the SD card.

In any case, like I said, I have been extremely successful with 'no black' pictures this weekend, and have not rebooted my device since Friday. This is a miracle for me.

I just removed and inserted a clean shim.

If I could get another three days without a reboot, I will be jumping for joy!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Michael_514:
My unit just hung! :(

I had disconnected the unit from the Activesync USB cable.

Went upstairs.

Came back to find the unit on (Backlight on) and the unit was very hot, with the battery being sucked down 1/2.

I had set an Alarm for 1:00pm, and it's now 2:10pm. It started playing a second or two of the Alarm sound just now. And that was it. Very hot to the touch.

But I am happy that this is my first re-boot since Friday.

These hangs/black photos/hot battery drains may all be different issues, but I am still definitely leaving my shim inside the card. No reboot since Friday is a big improvement for this unit!

Good day

I recently upgraded my TyTn from WM5 to WM6. Since upgrade 1GB and 2GB Apacer micro SD's that worked fine are not recognised by the phone.

Am I missing any setting in WM6? Can someone please help as I need to access info on the cards ASAP.

Thank you

Just got my new PQ1 2G card and replaced my old 2G Sandisk. My first impression is speed - much better with the PQ1. Also the general feeling is that it fails less or not at all. I have to work with it for the next 72 hours to give you my statistics comparing it to the Sandisk.

I'll keep you posted.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] barrr:
NO. This feels the same as my old Sandisk 2G memory. Every 4-5 hours my SD card stops responding. Mind you in the PQ1 case I can still see the card with my Explorer and even see the directory structure and the files. They just can't run. The messege I get is the progrmam is not found.

Black photos - camera software - unrelated to memory card

Hi

I was browsing the forum looking for something about larger format microSD card support when I saw this thread.

I only just purchased a microSD memory card for my Hermes, and have been using it without any card since February.

In that time I have had several black photos - all of which seem to be related to the contrast between the light and dark on the picture. There seems to be a bug with the telemetry module. The photos were all saved to the on-board memory - so I am pretty sure the black photo issue is unrelated to microSD card.

So far I have not had any issues with the new card .. but am now very wary thanks to this post.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] martinsoler:
Updating the Radio Rom solved the card issue

I had the frustrating experience of buying a Micro SDHC 4GB card from Sandisk that didn't show up on my HTC Hermes.

I had just installed Schaps version 4.31 full and it was still not going. I tried to install a driver but that didn't work either.

I then borrowed a friends MicroSD card 1GB and it had same effect i.e. nothing. Not even a flicker on File Explorer when I inserted the card.

I then flashed the rom with Schaps 4.31 lite and no change.

The only thing I had not done with the rom was upgrade the radio. Which I then did.

After flashing the radio it found my 4GB SDHC card no problem.

I flashed the rom with Schaps full version and it all works fine.

I guess this is as random as putting a piece of paper behind the card (which I tried but no luck) or all the other problems people have with the Hermer and SD card.

Hope this helps someone.

-------------------------------------

Update: no this didn't solve it. It worked for a day and next time I pulled the card out to load it it didn't recognize it anymore. It has since appeared once or twice intermittently but never when I need it.

Just installed the Bodyguardz Pure Tempered Glass screen protector with the Express Align tray on my white Galaxy S6.

It is 100% Halo Free and went on pretty much perfect. Not sure how it would come out on the black S6 but I'm not complaining about mine.

I have installed tons of screen protector over the years and this is my first Bodyguardz. The Express Align tray works perfect and I highly recommend it.

Just made sure you push real hard and wait for the protector to adhere to the phone before trying to remove the Express Align tray.

Well worth the $35.00 from the AT&T Store. I also have the Zagg as a back up but don't think I'll be needing it right now.

It's a little short on the top and bottom but that is how they avoid the halo.

I'm sure Bodyguardz will be offering their "Crown" for the S6 Pure in the near future.

I also managed to installed it without getting any junk under the screen :p

(the spots in pics are only in the pics, not under glass).

Here are a few pictures.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] AirSupply:
Can you share any tips that help to prevent dust or lint get under the screen during installation?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Just a real clean area and have a nice bright light over the area you are working on. Also a can of compressed air comes in handy. Soft Micro Fiber rags. I use the Giottos Large Rocket Blower ( used with my cameras). I believe that they are only like $10. and something you will always use as I do. Bodyguardz is coming out with their "Crown" for the S6 to fill in the spaces.

[Galaxy S6 Accessories] c_86:
My tip for a clean and lint free installation. Go into your bathroom. Turn on the shower with hot water. Let it get nice and steamy. It will settle the dust in the room and then clean and apply the screen protector. Sounds crazy but been doing this for years and never get anything under my screen protectors.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] cali4nia831:
+1

I've been doing this for a while to.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] ky3bmu4:
That depends on your location actually. I also do the same but Moscow is very very dusty city and I live near the highway... so even after the hot shower I can see particles floating))) Usually I buy couple of protectors so succeed with at least one, that is not an option with a 35 bucks SP though )
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] flu13:
Another vote for the steamy shower route.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
I'm tempted to pull this one off and try the Zagg I have sitting here. :p

If it was not so short on the top & bottom it would be perfect. ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] yoniinfante:
When the Samsung Galaxy S6 came out I really liked this feature of quickly launching the Camera app by just double tapping on the physical Home button. Some people are lucky and still using KitKat ROMs in which Xposed is available and this can be done, but its not good implemented on Lollipop 5.0.1 just yet( if I'm not mistaken) Well for those people looking for something similar(like myself) this is a pretty good and easy way to make it happen, the Camera wont launch as fast as the GS6 but something still better than nothing, I will leave some Step by Step procedure with some pictures for references,so lets get started,

NO ROOT REQUIRED

Download Home2 Shortcut from Google Play for free. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eikatou0.appspot.home2shortcut

1-Open up Home2 Shortcut and scroll down 'till you reach your first stop - "Step1". Here, you'll assign the Home key to the Camera app. So tap "Choose Application", choose "Camera" and hit "Ok".

2-Next, you'll adjust the duration, or how quickly you must tap the home button to complete the action. So scroll down to "Step 2", tap the "Normal" drop-down menu, and choose "Normal"

3-Scroll down to "Step 3", where you'll complete an important setting. Tap "Choose Home Application" and select the launcher you're currently using.

4-Scroll down to the final "Step 4" and tap Close. Android will prompt you to select an app to complete the action. In this screen, select "Home2 Shortcut", and then choose "Always".

5-Go ahead and try launching the Camera by double tapping the Home button. It should work.

THIS METHOD DOES NOT WORK WITH THE SCREEN OFF
[Galaxy Note 4 General] AndroidState:
I did this exactly first thing after I saw this feature. same app and everything :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] yoniinfante:
Yeah it works very well...i posted cuz i see people interested in the same thing but no threads about it...cheers:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sandeshnl:
Thanks! I've installed it and it works very well. I'm not sure if I'm going to keep it though because I often go for a photo walk around the city where I'll take the phone out of my pocket, snap a photo and put it back in my pocket. This app doesn't really speed up the process of opening the camera.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] yoniinfante:
You can go to Step 2 and choose another level instead of Normal, hope it works better, if helped please press the Thanks Button, ill appreciate, god bless, cheers:fingers-crossed::highfive:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] chowdarygm:
Thanks for sharing the info but its not working when the screen is off or also after waking the screen but only works when unlocked, am I missing anything?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] yoniinfante:
I stated on OP, THIS METHOD DOES NOT WORK WITH SCREEN OFF, but let see youre using any app or browsing and you need to snap a photo just double tap the home button, instead of going back home, opening the app drawer, and looking for the camera app, of course this isn't perfect, but it works really well, thanks for the comment, if helped please press the Thanks Button,appreciate, god bless, cheers:fingers-crossed::highfive:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] chowdarygm:
My bad....was looking for this feature since I saw S6...so was excited when I saw your post and didnt read everything ...still good to try...thanks [emoji16]
[Galaxy Note 4 General] yoniinfante:
lol its ok mate, have a good one, god bless, cheers:fingers-crossed::highfive:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Vichenec:
Thanks for the hint!

also If you have custom launcher like Nova it is possible to do the same thing by assigning it to launch camera upon hitting home button , so if you're browsing or playing game double tapping home button opens the camera.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] yoniinfante:
yes, that's correct, but what I don't like about Nova is that every time you press the home button even by mistake then the camera opens, also you have more choices with this app, thanks for the comment, if it helped please click the Thanks Button, god bless, cheers:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Vichenec:
Works perfectly fine for me, never happened by mistake.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] HDxDaniel:
I use Nova launcher. There is an option in 'Gestures' to do a task if you press twice the home buttom. Just choose to open the Camera app.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] pratik_193:
how did you enable double tap home button to open camera? i can only see a single tap to open camera option..
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kalinskym:
Is there a method for root which doesn't require you to unlock your phone before opening the camera with double click of home button
[Galaxy Note 4 General] yoniinfante:
Using Xposed, but you need to be running Kitkat Rom, cheers:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] HDxDaniel:
Well it isn't double tap exactly, I meant that if you are using any app, like Whatsapp for example, and you want to open camera you have to press twice to open it, once for homescreen and other to open the camera. :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Legatus Onoris:
If it doesn't work with screen off, then if you have nova launcher prime, it's better to add the camera app to the home button in button and gestures submenu

Inviato dal mio Note 4
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Chad_Petree:
Exactly, there's no way to implement double tap everywhere, only a single tap on the homescreen, or a single tap everywhere but activating that would leave us without a home button :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] yoniinfante:
Thats what is this thread about this app impliment the double tap very well...and you still have a single tap home buttom...if you havent use it yet give it a try...cheers:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Chad_Petree:
I have to Say I'm a little bit skeptical with apps that haven't been updated in so long, I think they may turn into rogue apps and drain the Battery since they haven't been really optimized for the operative system :(

Hello to All,

I have made an app that does exactly what you are discussing about and more... But it needs ROOT!!!

http://xdaforums.com/note-4/themes-apps/app-s-utils-t3268484

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bestapps.torch

Please note that my latest update that supports double click of home button to open camera is not implemented yet into the free version... It will be in the next few days.. I just updated the pro version so it might take some hours to show up on google play ;)

You can double click home button and open camera wherever you are, lockscreen, screen off, etc.... It works great, keep in mind that it disables svoice and NEEDS ROOTED DEVICE!!

Guys has anyone had this working properly in Lollipop? Any advise with 5.1.1? I have set the home app and default action of the center button.

If I don't disable the camera double center i get the camera. When i do the status bar goes black but nothing happens. And center back will work if i get the timing just right but if I don't I just get a black status bar that flashes for a second. Center menu has yet to work (The recent apps screen just flashes up). I'm not sure what I can do to make this work.

In reality if there is some way I can just configure the home button to perform a few different tasks I'd be happy. Maybe two presses opens my app Waze and three opens Pandora. Is there some app like this or another similar to home2 that works on 5.1? Same seems to occur w/ home2 on my wifes non rooted 5.0 device.

There is a bug that causes Cell Standby to just eat through battery power. I've had mine off since I got my Edge but with all the updates I have not tried it again.

I may want to give it a try since I typically go into the band selection menu and lock in on LTE band 4 (band 12 at work has horrible speeds for data), but that causes me to miss calls since the phone can't switch to HSPA to take the call.
