Hi. I want to edit build.prop to get access to Samsung apps for my gear 2 neo. I edit build prop with an editor and apply but after restart the changes have reverted.

I'm on rooted stock with busybox installed via recovery (missing applets). Will I be able to edit build prop on a stick rom at all or do I need a custom?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparkydude2:
I was going to downgrade my Verizon Note 4 to 4.4.4 KitKat. Although, I am a bit "faint of heart" when it comes to this, so to speak. I've loaded custom ROMs and rooted other devices, but with my new-ish-ly acquired note 4 I have not. Is there any risk downgrading to 4.4.4 just for the "Kingroot" temporary root? Or would it be better just to wait for a lollipop temporary or kitkat permanent root? Thanks.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murderdock:
I spent an hour last night downgrading and then I re-updated to lollipop about an hour ago. I ****ing love smart unlock and couldn't deal with not having it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparkydude2:
I wish I could agree, but I have no use for it right now. :p
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbeelzebub:
This.

Smart Lock has changed my life. I've paired it with my wifi, my mac, my car and my headphones for the gym. It simply works and just makes everything better.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reydarz:
Smart unlock can be replicated on 4.4.4 with tasker.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mademan420:
SkipLock also gives you similar features (along with some extras) of Smart Lock in Lollipop.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madchainsawer:
I actually had the same question and right now i am attempting a downgrade on my note 4
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparkydude2:
I'm wondering if there's a risk factor associated with downgrading. I want to do it just for the root, but should I just wait until a temp-root (at least) comes out for Lollipop?

Can I really trust $500+ dollars of technology to a computer program?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sean Z:
Tried getting Smart Unlock at the play store, and it says it's incompatible with my device? Verizon Note 4 retail edition, by the way. And thank you for mentioning this app. It looks like something I would need.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stillthisguy:
Yes you can trust it, as many others have done it and Odin has been used for a long time to flash firmware on Samsung phones. I have downgraded from 5.0.1 three times already with Odin with no issues. This phone has been out since Oct and there hasn't been any kind of root until this temp root came along from KingRoot. If you want root that bad, it is time to downgrade.

Smart Lock is already built into your Note 4 on Lollipop, Go to Settings>Security>Trust Agents>Enable Smart Lock Then under security click on Smart Lock and set it up. If you are talking about SkipLock from the play store, it isn't compatible with 5.0.1 as 5.0.1 has it build into the system. SkipLock only works on 4.4.4 for the Note 4.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_Lunatic:
It was worth it for me.

The only thing inconvenient about doing the down grade is you have to start all over again. But I found it worth it since now, Bluetooth and WiFi work flawlessly again. WiFi was unusable on Lollipop and Bluetooth kept disconnecting.

I can live without smart unlock...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GastroGuy:
Downgrading to 4.4.2

Can you please help me on this. I've done everything that a tutorial has using odin, samsung drivers,backup,factory re-set etc etc but still get the msg FAIL. Couldn't find anyone particular who downgraded SM-910V to Kitkat on youtube either.

Pls guide me. I don't want to experiment with any ROM ...just plain downgrade to Kitkat. Cannot stand the dark/square plus usual lollipop issues.

Many Thanks in advance.

If you took the update you can not go back. The only way you can downgrade is if you did the safe upgrade if not you are stuck. From the error message it sounds like you are. Sorry.

Is it possible to change the application used for taking pictures (the viewfinder)?

I have a HTC BlueAngel (SPV M2000/XDA IIs) running WM5 and have the camera app with the borders and buttons round the outside. I really want the one which takes up the whole screen which i have seen on other devices.

Is it possible?

CoolCamera isn't compatible with the BA.

Thanks

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] The.Jericho.Initiative:
So I rooted my device and have experienced no issues, save one... I chose to use the Samsung mail client rather than gmail, I can't stand the gmail ui. Well, post root my email icon opens my phone/dialer app. I've been browsing the file structure but haven't located it yet. I've got a thanks button at the ready if anyone can point me in the right direction.

Edit: Issue resolved itself however something similar occurred with the amazon app. Seems minor enough but I'll post more if the behavior continues.

Hi,

I have a Note4 and purchased a dual sim adapter,

everything works fine but the default software is annoying.

I have to go through the menus each time to get to it etc and i tried adding a shortcut on the desktop but it always disappears after a day or 2.

I would like to find an app that i can make a quick swap button on the desktop and also program it to change from one to the other for half hour a day.

Does anyone know of such app, also i have rooted the phone too.

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] stewartie4:
Hi guys, I am thinking of trading in my old phillips carstudio ced780 for a Erisin ES8990A which can be viewed here

I have attached an image of it (for some reason I can't insert images)

It seems to have appealing features eg. a capacitive touchscreen and GPS, however there doesn't seem to be much info on it. I was wondering if anyone has seen this model under a different name and if there is a thread on here discussing that model as there are other android head units? I don't want to buy a model with no support or information!

Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] psiriders:
Same problem here ;) Not much info about it. I just bought it yesterday. It seems ok, bluetooth, wifi etc work ok (range, stability) There is google store etc. Some native android settings are blocked by the producer (like mic volume settings) and it's a bit annoying.
[Android Head-Units] stewartie4:
Thanks for the reply, if you don't mind me asking, is this a ce/android hybrid or pure android? How long does it take to boot up? and is the touchscreen really capacitive?

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] psiriders:
It's a pure android. Boots up in a matter of seconds because of being suspended when turning the ignition off. Full system reboot takes less than minute. Touchscreen works ok, no problems there.

As for disadvantages:

- 3G USB modem didn't work, it's being recognized, logs to the network but my APN list is empty and I can't add any... I use wifi instead (mobile gsm hotstop)

- 1GB ROM for application - not much, but for me it's sufficient.

- there is some noise when the unit is ruining (not in speakers, the volume changes nothing, it's getting from inside of the unit). I don't know if it's just my unit... When I listen to the radio it doesn't bother me..
[Android Head-Units] stewartie4:
Thanks for the reply, I assume the low storage problem could be mitigated with moving apps/data to the SD card, thanks for the clarification on it being pure android, as android normally doesn't have dvd drive drivers I thought this would have been a ce/android hybrid, but they must have used proprietary drivers.

As for the noise, my current headunit does the same, it's the fan so nothing to worry about there.

The only thing that worries me is the suspend mode you speak of, which must run off the car battery when the ignition is off, therefore depleting it if the car is not used for a while?

Thanks again for the reply!
[Android Head-Units] psiriders:
True, it might be the problem, but without actual info about power drain during standby I can't say much. The truth is that this standby is much more practical as booting the system on every ignition.
[Android Head-Units] jade1966:
3G USB modem nem működik, ez is elismerte, naplókat, hogy a hálózat, de én APN lista üres, és nem tudok hozzáadni ... tudom használni wifi helyett ( mobil gsm hotstop)

Got the headunit today and can confirm that tomtom does not work, which is no problem for me because the igo it comes with has tomotm maps, and local search. Google maps also works. Maybe the new tomotm go app will work in future?

It is possible there are settings in the hidden menu (password 3368) that allow this but i haven't got a chance to try it out yet.

Hello, you too have this problem? :

when I start iGO or Sygic, voice alerts not work.

To hear the voice of Igo or Sygic, I must change the voice

and at the same time that I hear the voice of iGO or Sygic, the voice of the radio stops, and to hear it again I must restart the radio.

And when I restart iGO or Sygic, voice alerts do not work

[Android Head-Units] arpa463x:
I had the same problem with TomTom . I didn't find any solution with older versions but newer TomTom Go 1.7 worked fine.

However installing it is tricky because Erisin limits to 1Gb system memory and Tomtom tries to install maps in this memory and ignores SD Card and 5Gb of free internal memory.

First I erased everything, then I installed Tomtom on fully empty system so that there is no memory problem,

then I made a link with app2sd to the directory on SD card where TomTom downloads maps (there were some issues with writing on SD card solved with SDFix).

Then it worked well but I bricked my system with all those manipulations (I am sure that I will recover but never had time).

Hi to all,

i have this unit in my car since about 2 months now and i am in general very satisfied.

As for extra i have installed a reverse camera and the can bus adapter for my car (a Renault Megane II RS). Everything ok, with a little bit of try and go, but everything functional until now.

have Sygic for Navi on it.

Some kind of problems:

- I d like to have Poweramp as standard music app but i guess i have to rom my unit fot that. Although i have the full app version (purchased), it seems impossible to get to the settings menu. I cannot adjust the volume function, after i press any button (touch screen or hardware) it returns to the initial (low) level. After some research, problem was known with these older Androids, it has to do with menu button recognition from side of Poweramp. The developers had to especially adjust the code for any registered new combinations hardware/android, apparently not done for this one.

- Cant take the Tasker app to run on start up and because of this also the other apps i need on start up.

In general, although i have made some research, couldn’t end up to a conclusion, which other generic units are compatible with 8990...if any.

It seems that this combination 4.1.1., 1024*600 has not of so much development related in net. For example Malaysk roms...

Would somebody here have any suggestions/instruction, on rooting the device, firmware update, new rom etc.??
[Android Head-Units] Spaddy2951:

What android version is this update file? Same 4.1.1? How about modifying internal storage for apps, from 1GB to x.GB? Since I have an identical unit, not erisin, but same unidentifiable as mcu MStar768 cedric, same 3368 access menu code, I intend to use this update file....could you please provide some pics with different apps in HU or a detailed description of rom (found in settings) so I could be sure of not bricking my toy?

PS: I know if a thing that works, dont't repair it...but that 4.1.1 version is so restrictive in many ways...no custom recovery, root unstable, location services ( which we use a lot, obviously), 3g dongle not any model working (only few zte or huawei, rest with pppwidget, causing systemUI to crash) etc etc.

Thanks for your fast response. Indeed my model is identical to your erisin. I can confirm that update files from you worked ok, same 4.1.1 version though. I want 4.2.2 at least, also a way to reboot to custom recovery like twrp, I install it via update.cfg file and recovery.img ( twrp for klyde which has same mstar dual core) on sd card in gps slot, same procedure as firmware update. I wonder if I cand update only system.img with other android version from other product...this and twrp recovery reboot method via press buttons sequence are my goals. For now.

[Android Head-Units] jean8101:
it seems something to getting moved regarding this unit

i am currently on paypal dispute with erisin, wanting to send my unit to repair under guaranty, but they asking me to send it back to China (from Germany). I had ordered the unit via ebay from "german" shop, which it proved to be not a normal shop but a distributor or something. Paypal has taken for the moment my side, but the chinese have given once more a chinese address fro shipment.

Anyway, the technical problem is that sometimes touchscreen "freezes", in the way that i touch somewhere on the screen and the actual click on the screen seems to be somewhere els, top left on the screen. Problem get "solved" if i restart android, which i can only do via a usb air mouse/keyboard.

Has anybody had the same problem?? Possible solution, recalibration or something. Everytime after restart is everyhing OK, something that makes me believe that its not a hardware problem (Erisin wanted to send me new touchscreen fro 15 Euros, which i could have a "friend of me" (!) install/repair).
[Android Head-Units] kalinkamaen:
Yes I have had the same issue. But for me it has dissapared again now. I rooted my device and freezed alot of apps i did not use.

But I do not no for sure that this was the fix.

[YOUTUBE]Fx17ASW8aqA[/YOUTUBE]

I have also had the same issue as this guy have here.

The fix for this for me, is to close and then open scren again. Seems

like the screen cable connection is bad.
