[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blades:
So I must be missing something here. On armel devices, a very simple (unrar compiled from source) binary would run as long it was properly built for armel.. This doesn't seem to be the case for x86_64. What am I missing? I even tried a x86-32 build (despite uname -a saying it is indeed running on x86_64). Any pointers? I usually bring aria2, 7z, and unrar at the very least.. 7z is a bit more complicated than unrar due to it not being a static binary. Despite the awesome X86ness, this phone is irritating; over-willingly catering to stupidity it seems.. Lollipop is awful.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] updateing:
At least it should give you some error message...
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blades:
data/local/unrar <

tmp-mksh: /data/local/unrar: not found

data/local/bin/unrar <

tmp-mksh: /data/local/bin/unrar: No such file or directory

This is all the error I get. The second output is where the correct location of the file, the first input is just to show the difference between an incorrect location and the binary failing to run. I'm a bit rusty but I believe this is similar behavior to trying to run an armel compiled program that relies on external libraries.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blades:
So I just tried aria2 pre-built for android to see if it had an x86 variant. To my surprise, it ran.. To my further surprise:

Compiler: gcc 4.9 20140827 (prerelease)

built by x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

targetting arm-unknown-linux-androideabi

on Feb 23 2015 23:55:54

System: Linux 3.10.20-x86_64_moor-g9f2abf6 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri May 15 16:07:23 CST 2015 armv7l

Yeah, you see that target? Or perhaps the bit at the end? ARM, yet my device is clearly x86_64. Should I be pissed or impressed? Perhaps this is a Term em thing? Couldn't mount loop device either.. But that's a tangent. I really wish this phone ran Ubuntu. I'm going to try compiling unrar for armel, it'll probably run.. While x86 won't.. That'll piss me off. I knew I recognized that "No such file or directory" error..
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blades:
Ugh, I forgot about PIE requirements for lolli. (Un)fortunately, unrar works (armel)... But both (armel) 7z and par2 throw an error about not being PIE. Again, unrar for _compiled for armel_ works, while x86_64 does not. Also, there's an entire folder for doppelganger armel libs in /system/lib/ . I though I bought an Intel-based device, not an Intel based armel emulator. It's so irritating how many layers of junk are added to formerly decent OS/UIs just to cater to windowlickers..
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blades:
Like anyone cares.. heh. I managed to bork up my linker binary by trying to remove PIE check.. Whoops, kind of essential.. Result is same as when I try to run x86_64 compiled programs. Adorable. I fixed it by booting into the fugazi-CWM for this phone (that does not have root access?!).. creating a flashable zip that restored previous linker binary.. but not before having to find a proper x86 binary-updater binary that wasn't a script (SuperSU you sneaky).
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val3r10:
Any further discovery ?

I'd need some binaries working inside ZE551ML terminal (ssh sessions)... for instance:

zip/unzip (full), rar/unrar, md5deep, dcfldd, nano, ...

Is there any way statically compiled ones from a std linux x86_64 distro will work ?

Any hint/guide to cross compile for Intel and not for ARM ?

Thanks
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aziz07:
I also tried to remove PIE security check and phone would boot into recovery. I was trying to disable cellular radiomodem and bins were not executing.

You only need to replace linker file with oem to boot again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Synyster06Gates:
So for those of us that just picked up the S6 (Edge or not) T-Mobile is doing a promotion this weekend. They are offering the 64gb version for the same price as the 32gb. I just picked up the 64gb Edge yesterday and figured I would call in and see what they could do for me. Turns out they gave me an $80 bill credit. So if you just picked up your phone give them a call and see if they could help you out! It's a great deal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] nyknight77:
Any deal on the 128gb version?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Synyster06Gates:
I didn't see anything for the 128gb unfortunately - here's what I saw.

http://www.androidcentral.com/t-mob...storage-galaxy-s6-no-additional-cost-and-more
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] darkjedi:
TMo said a big fat no to me. They said I needed to go to the store, return my phone and get a new one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Synyster06Gates:
Weird - the lady I spoke to put me on hold to talk to her manager then came back and told me I would have a bill credit of $80 within 24 hours. I just checked and it's there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] ktetreault14:
Sucks were you guys older than the 14 day period?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] darkjedi:
Callback #2 got me the credit, and a $20 "inconvenience" credit. Nice!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] DroidOnRoids:
Wtf I chatted with T-Mobile on an online chat and they said I had to do a return exchange. Can somebody guide me here?

EDIT: I have a 32 GB variant.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Synyster06Gates:
Probably not much they can do for you. There's no discount on the 32gb versions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] nviz22:
If you get to the customer loyalty department or retail support, they could help you out though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] @rbiter:
Did any of y'all goto their website? 128gb for 64gb price.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] nviz22:
128 for 64 GB price and 64 for 32 GB price. Anyone got their tracking numbers just yet?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] neonsector:
I bought mine a month ago, when I found out they lowered the price for the weekend I called T-Mobile, talked to customer service, I got transferred to customer loyalty department and they said there is noting they can do about it, one of them told me to trade my 128 gb edge for credit and buy another one at the discounted price.. lol... some logic there.

So I went to their facebook page and complained last night.

I got a reply this morning from their T-Force team to msg them on facebook with more details.

After 5 mins I got the reply I needed.

""You're most welcome, Michael. I'm glad you got the S6 Edge. It's a great device. The $100 plus tax credit has been applied, and you'll see that credit impacting your current balance due by dialing #225# and send on your device any time. *JB""

So I checked my balance and sure enough, it was 108 dollars lower.

Then about 30 minutes later I get the text msg :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Synyster06Gates:
Don't take this the wrong way - but what did you complain about? When you bought the phone a month ago you were content with the price. You were not in your buyers remorse period like some of us were when we talked to the customer service dept. Complaining on a public venue about T-Mobile not giving you money for something you bought over a month ago is kind of ridiculous.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] neonsector:
my complain was I had another 128gb I bought from costco, i tried to unlock it and I was told they cant because even though I bought from a tmobile kiosk in costco, it was not a tmobile phone, so I sold it and lost money in the process, bought another one then a few days later they offer it for 100 less? I dont think so.

As far as the 100 dollars, really? you would if you could, so please, don't give me that, and tmobile didnt think it was ridiculous, thats why they gave me the credit.

Its like buying a 75k bmw form the dealer and a month later they drop the price 10k for a weekend, you wont care? give me a break...

Anyways, even if you are out of your buyers remorse period, make some noise and your money back, unless you are mr money bags ^^ and you dont care
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] shoresteve626:
Personally, I don't find it ridiculous at all. Everyone wants to try and save some money here and there. Most retailers today have price protection policies for when an item you purchased goes on sale at a later time. My mom always told me that the key to financial management was always trying to find a deal so that the extra money you save could stay in the bank to earn interest. Then again, she also said, "If you don't have anything nice to say"....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Synyster06Gates:
Yeah, a few days maybe. Very few companies will do this a month after purchase. Why bother having a sale if they all honored sale prices to anyone who asks over a month after the original purchase? Asking about it is fine - and I understand that completely. Posting complaints about the company for everyone to see on social media because you were told no but feel entitled to the price difference is something else all together.

After trying all sorts of pdf readers, I come close to the conclusion that reading pdf documents on a PDA is not practical at all and even irrealistic.

Due mainly to the fact that one cannot view an entire page with a readable font size without having to scroll sideways.

I end up converting pdf to lit.

Please, give opinion and eventually solutions.

Thanks all, and take care

donno i read a book as pdf once

on my pda

only had to scroll down not sideways

depend on the doc in question really i suppose

[General Questions and Answers] mrdata1701b:
VGA a requirement

I use an older version of Adobe reader on a VGA screen. My eyes are still good enough that I can zoom out, get a full page on the screen, and still read it. I have read an entire book this way. I am sure there are better ways to do it on a PDA. But my goal is to be able to grab a document off of the web and read it as I travel. If there is going to be conversion between formats, it would have to take place on the PDA.

That being said, it is still easier to read a word or text document than a PDF. But if you have the screen resolution and size to work with, PDF's are not impossible.
[General Questions and Answers] elio:
Thanks folks, that was my impression.

There are ways to improve PDF experiance. Using reflow when creating PDFs (available as an option when saving PDFs from OpenOffice, for example) greatly improves things.

Anothr good option is Repligo - you can print / convert PDFs to that format. It uses less space, documents open faster and look better (less jagged fonts).
[General Questions and Answers] Ultimate Chicken:
Believe me, PDFs are annoying even in actual, desktop environments. >_>

That said, I'm using Foxit for the PPC. It loads 15MB++ files faster than Adobe, follows the original PDF format faithfully (doesn't try to rearrange like idiotic Clearvue), yet it is a standalone program that requires no installation.

That said, PDF reading is only for devices with a big screen. Definitely bigger than a Mini, let alone an Atom. Otherwise, at a big enough text to be legible, scrolling to the side is necessary - and that tends to lag a bit with bigger PDFs for devices with only 64MB of RAM or less.

I have train skeds and the Tokyo Metro Map plus a crap load more pdf files

[General Questions and Answers] Rudegar:
imexp then big pictures makes pdf useless on pda's as they can move the text to scale but in there is a picture in the middle they cant really handle scaling the picture down to match the width of the pda screen
[General Questions and Answers] elio:
I think converting to repligo is the most elegant solution since images are conserved...but it is not free :)

Otherwise, if pics are not important, converting to text then to lit and using microsoft reader is an acceptable free solution.

To "AquiEsta!": why don't you use the excellent "metro" freeware?
[General Questions and Answers] Sunra:
You can use the free xpdf (pocketpdf). It at least has better zoom functions then adobe and it has the option to read pdf as text files with associated functions. You lose pictures but pure textfiles are a breaze to read...

[General Questions and Answers] PxDxA:
Adobe Reader for PPC 2 works with my HTC Athena/Advantage VGA screen without legibility problems using its reflow function which wraps the text to your screen - no sideways scrolling needed.

Even if your documents were not prepared specifically for this Active Sync will do the necessary conversion when you transfer the docs from your PC (turn it on in file settings). If you bypass ActiveSync your reflow button gets greyed out.

For documents like maps you can switch to sideways scrolling whenever you want.

My only gripe is that the characters are a little fuzzy, so I'm looking for a fix for this.

UPDATE: fuzzy characters fixed:

Switch resolution to 95 dpi using RealVGA before opening Adobe Reader. Now works as it was meant to. Only downside is the the resolution switch involves a reset.

For reading articles and such offline I use ScrapBook (a Firefox extension) to capture the page/selection and delete ads/sidebars and then 'Save Page as...' and copy the html and corresponding images folder to my SD card. It's a pain but it's the best solution that I could find.

Don't let the number of Cons over Pros put you off.

Even with these problems I still use it on a daily basis, and preferred to buy it over using free alternatives like Adobe.

No Search

No way of jumping to a page

Loaded G appps together with Paranoid Android onto my oneplus one. Both were in the root folder.

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCDillon:
Hello, I currently have Cyanogenmod 11 on my device, but I want to revert to the stock ROM again.

I have the B127 FW on my external SD as the UPDATE.APP within the dload folder.

I flashed stock recovery and after rebooting a couple of times, the update seemed to work at first, as there was a bar to indicate the progress of the install. But I get a failure to install error. Saying there is no UPDATE.APP.. which I obviously do have.

Anyone know what is wrong? I tried unrooting, putting the dload folder on internal SD, switching FW versions in dload folder (B130, B127, etc.)
