Hi all. I am new to the forums (although have been lurking some weeks) so a big hello to everyone.

I have a few issues with my hermes/tytn (a T-Mobile Vario II). A bit of background: I have installed and upgraded latest radio, bootloader, and LVSW to the device. It has a 2gig SanDisk MicroSD.

After my fifth soft reset today, I feel it is time to ask a few questions :rolleyes:

1. My device keeps crashing. When I load contacts, slide the keyboard out, use internet explorer... pretty much anything. It seems intermittant so is hard to pin point. Is this what having the latest software entails? or is there something seriously wrong somewhere? My initial thought was that it must be something i've installed running in the background. All I had was spb weather and spb GPRS monitor. I have uninstalled both to no avail.

2. LVWS doesn't come with a task manager. I understand that this was due to problems with the default/MS one. That's fine, no problems. But after I open 5 or 6 programs -- bearing in mind my device seems already prone to crashing, it really bugs me that they are still open even though I have pressed the 'X'. Does everyone just deal with this? Am I the only person that wants their software to close when it's told? (i have tried iLauncher, that has working 'Close' buttons, but I dont like it).

3.I was just talking on the phone over wm6's built in voip client and the damn thing put itself in sleep mode. This killed the conversation. I press the power to get the phone back to life and it lights up but is frozen. You might say this is because the voip is a new feature, but i'm pretty sure it has happened on a regular voice call. Any ideas?

4.Is there anything similar to windows' Wireless Zero Config? I want to be able to walk around a town and be notified when an open AP is found. I would also like to be asked if I want to connect to it. Am I asking too much?

If there's nothing available, is there a market or a need for this? I am a programmer for a living so could probably create something...

5.My alarm does not go off. I presume this is because the damn thing puts itself in sleep mode. Any solutions bar turning off sleep?

6.I used to have a bunch of little squares/icons of recently used programs on the top of the start menu. These appear in horzontal mode (keyboard slid out) but not vertical. They used to appear for both modes.

OK. So there's my list of annoyances. Any solutions would be GREATLY appreciated. I am a first time PDA owner and I *think* I am converted. When this device is working it's great, i love it.

Many thanks,

AP

Hi,

so after trying to flash a new nightly of CM12 the OPO is in a bootloop. I started by trying to just wipe dalvik and cache and rebooting. Still bootlooping.

I tried the Sudden Death Bug solution of

make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p15

Didn't change anything.

I read I could try to re-flash the kernel through fastboot.. what kernel should I flash in that case?

much appreciated,

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hellron:
Hi,

I rooted my phone and flashed a couple roms on it long ago back on 4.1.1. I hadn't done anything knew with it for a long time and I never allowed any OTA updates or anything like that. I recently picked up a smartwatch and I needed to move to a newer version to be able to get the app to use with the smartwatch. I am quite rusty and it seems like a lot of things have changed. I tried downloading one of the new lollipop roms and also picked up an older one from 4.4 just to try them out. I went to flash the lollipop one and I'm guessing there was probably something I was missing for later updates or something cause it failed.

I was running an old version of TWRP and thought maybe that needed to be updated. I downloaded a TWRP downloader program in the playstore and supposedly downloaded the newest version but when it rebooted I was stuck on the samsung logo and even letting it sit for 30+ minutes it never would progress. So, I then figured I was stuck on this so I looked up how to get back to stock and I used ODIN to get back to stock. Now, I think I'm not longer rooted and will have to go through the root process again. What path should I take to be able to get to the newer versions? I'm trying hard not to mess it up.

Thanks for any advice you can give!

Hellron
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hellron:
I actually figured out what to do. I had to update my TWRP and I just used ODIN to update it. I tried to use the app in the appstore but it didn't work.

I am currently on Wind Mobile network in Canada, I used to get 4G network using the factory DOC4 firmware and baseband.

How to properly MOUNT the system so I can change its permission? (USING TERMINAL EMULATOR)

I know the first command for it (mount) (I dont know what command follows) :confused:

Because I need to first mount the system before changing permissions.

How to change permissions for a system app (for example SystemUI.apk)? After doing some changes into my SystemUI.apk, I push it into my system and it has different permissions.

I want to change its permission into rw-r--r
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] NightRaven49:
In the emulator:

$ su
# mount -o remount,rw /system
# chmod 0644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk

or:

$ su
# cd system/app
# mount -o remount,rw /system
# chmod 0644 SystemUI.apk
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] klmiciano:
- What does the "0" in 0644 stands for?

Can you elaborate how that mount works so I can properly use it.

mount -o (what this for) remount (and this) ,rw (this also) /system(its the directory, the one I understand)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] NightRaven49:
Permissions for system files go beyond simply rw-r-r. Since Android is essentially Linux, Linux permissions do exist in Android. Alongside the Owner, Group and Other permissions, of which you set rw, r and r respectively, special permissions which are the Sticky bit, GID and UID exist as well. However, since these special permissions are not required for the functioning of Android, the 0 in 0644 is to disable all three of them.

-o in mount is essentially a flag. Flags are options to obtain different outcomes for each command. For example,

ls -s

not only lists the files in the current directory, but also lists the files' sizes in kB. I am not sure about -o in this case, however.

Remounting is required as your system is already a mounted filesystem, but as read-only (ro). Hence you have to remount it as read-write (rw), in order to change the properties of its files.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] klmiciano:
This is some good stuff. I need to learn more. :p

The last time I use the chmod command. I didn't include the '0'. I've only type

chmod 644 (blahblah)

Btw, Thank you for teaching me this stuff.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] gjimenez:
Ok, guys as we know, there is a root ready for the Samsung S6, the only thing we need now in order to root the AT&T S6 is that someone dump the /boot partition or full ROM either from the phone or from Samsung Smart Switch.

So please post your ideas here or if someone has a friend working on at&t ask them for the ROM ;).

I already tried social engineering, smart switch and dump but here are my results:

Dump: I already dumped /system and build.prop but the only way to dump /boot is having root or having a new exploit to dump it.

Smart Swtich: As you know Kies was deprecated and now Smart Switch is the new tool to backup and reflash software on the S6. You can find the option in the right upper corner - more - Emergency recovery and Software Initialization. After trying to use the Update and Software Initialization option I got the message: SM-G920A does not support initialization. I put my phone in Odin mode (Download mode) and tried again but this time it asked me my model (SM-G920A) and serial number, after filling it the Smart Switch aplication suddenly closed.

Social engineering: Samsung told me that the only way to reflash my phone was physically sending my phone to tech repair and that smart switch could not be used to reinstall the software in my phone... He is wrong, so I submitted a new email with a screenshot of the option in Smart Switch.

So guys please your help trying to get this ROM or boot.img

You can download the Smart Switch application here:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] mikeysweet:
I've had the BT-359 GPS unit for about 6 months and always had a little trouble getting it paired to the 8125. It would take 2-3 tries turning it on and off before the bluetooth pairing happened. Now it takes 15-20 retries and half the times it still won't pair.

The 8125 is set up exactly the way the manual requests. It finds the BT 359, connects it and I add it to Com6. After that, nothing though.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to force the bluetooth to pair to the GPS unit through software?

Any help will be greatly appreciated since searching for bt359 yields no results on to this issue.
