[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arcooke:
Ever since Lollipop, multiple devices called "connectsdk" show up on my network.

So this is kind of strange. I went into my router to check on something, and noticed a bunch of mystery devices connected to my network all named "connectsdk". One of them is my phone. Each "device" has its own IP. This is new ever since the 5.0.2 Lollipop update on my G2. I googled "connectsdk" and it is indeed an LG thing.

Now .. this is interesting to me, because ever since the Lollipop update, I have been having terrible battery life and my phone heats up for no apparent reason (Verizon VS980). And this seems to be much worse when I am away from a strong Wifi signal. So naturally I put two and two together, and it has me wondering if these mystery "devices" connected to my router might be causing the atrocious battery life and heat problems. As if maybe they are all searching for signal or probing hotspots at once.

I am assuming that ConnectSDK in this case is something embedded into an LG system app.. and my question is, which one? If I can disable whatever is doing this, I might be able to fix the battery problems.

Any clue what is causing these devices to show up on my network? Any way I can trace the IPs back to whatever system service/app is making these connections? Can any of you guys check your routers and see if these show up for you?

Thanks :good:

I'm seeing connectsdk too but I have a s6. I also have a wrt1900ac.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rckoegel:
I have these too: a connectsdk, and a connectsdk-1.

My DHCP detailed list (available in advanced network settings, may be a little different for different routers) says that the connectsdk-1 has the same wireless MAC address as my 10inch Samsung Android Tablet, and the connectsdk says it's connected to the same wireless MAC address as my Samsung Galaxy Nexus Android Phone.

I still don't know what the purpose of these connectSDKs are, but I assume they are legit connections. I was worried at first though, seeing strange things connected to my router. And I don't think these showed up with earlier router firmware.

So basically i just bought a note 3 from someone and it came with 4.4.2. I was planning on rooting it but when i got up this morning i accidentally clicked continue on the new update (5.0 Lollipop). I was just going to ignore the update but it downloaded in my sleep last night and i accidentally clicked it this morning. It is an AT&T model, N900A. So my question is, is it possible to root 5.0 Lollipop right now? and could I downgrade to 4.4.2 then root? thanks

I am in same boat. Bought a reconditioned Note 3 and it updated to Lollipop. 5.0

I am not currently interested in any mods, I just want root with no OS change so I can uninstall useless bloat ware.

Use the phone with Consumer Cellular so all the AT&T specific apps are useless but clog the system. Also want to get rid of crap like Uber, Magazine and TouchWiz etc. They are a constant annoyance.

[Off-topic] hack14u:
Does anyone have one of these, and if so, how far have you gotten in building new personalities? I would love to be able to edit the text files to control the sprites, but don't know how. Last I heard several years ago android78 was working on an editor to do this, but has since disappeared. I know how to change the mp3's, and rebuild the .vivo file, that's not the hard part. Those dang text files are. I am not even sure what they are written in. To me it doesn't even resemble any languages I have come across. Anyone out there? This thing would be bad to the bone with completely new personalities since Wowwee gave up on it too soon!
[Off-topic] acemartini:
I just picked one up @ goodwill and agree it would be super cool. Unfortunately, mine has no files on it at all (the drive is blank when I plug in the USB cable) so it stays at "loading" with the progress bar at 0 even with a fresh vivo file in there. Does yours load a personality? If so, do you mind letting me know if there are more files in there besides the vivo?

If I can get mine to work I bet I could get some of the dev's at work to figure out the text file.

Thanks.
[Off-topic] hack14u:
The original file was called Max_Simon.vivo. If yours has no files, try getting the Mr. Personality software from the Wowwee website, and then the original file and push it back onto him via USB and the software. I looked and all I could see are the .vivo files. The .vivo files can easily be seen if you rename it to a .zip and extract it. Before loading though it needs to be changed back. That's how I was able to work with the .mp3 files, but it does take the software to push it back onto him and then go into settings to pick a personality to load. If it is the only personality it should load automatically if the file is original and not corrupted. If you need either of the files, let me know and I will post them for you. That would be awesome to get someone to take a look at these files and let us know what we need to do. I know there are a lot of people out there with these sitting in closets because of the great support they threw and it, not. It's up to us now!
[Off-topic] MechaSeal:
Holy crap, I thought I was the only one who had this issue! Mine's been down for nearly 5 years by now; I happened to shut Mr. P off in the middle of recording a voice memo, and when I turned him back on he had the exact same symptoms with the loading screen as you mentioned. Now I made a topic on Robocommunity shortly after but all that was suggested in that thread didn't work at all. I don't know if I was doing anything wrong but after all this time it still doesn't work. It really disappoints me because this is actually a really cool robot that I always wanted to load up with my own personalities... and then it conks out. :(

If anyone could help figure out how to get this guy working, I'd be really grateful. :D

So I came across some easy steps to get Viper4Android and Dobly Digital Sound working on the stock TW lollipop kernel with SELINUX enforcing. I thought I'd make it as easy as possible for people to set up.

If you want both mods install Viper4Android first.

***************UPDATED***********************

Working V4A on lollipop with SELINUX enforcing follow the steps below.

Step 1

Install Viper4Android FX Apk as a system app

Newest version compiled from source here - https://mega.nz/#!i4I2DIDZ!chuEULXvHdpg4YuSmm-RVQdheipxjAVYk_q8KLWAIgI

Step 2

Open app and install Viper4Android drivers then reboot into recovery.

Step 3

Flash in recovery - https://mega.nz/#!i0BWna4R!YIPtq82jOSTnqYvkXSoCt1ZKZtpbAORM8KMhwznE_DM

This is a script to allow V4A to work with SELINUX Enforcing provided by below

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=61242973

**********************************************

Dobly Digital Sound

There was some interest in also having the sound mod for. Dobly Digital Sound on this thread.

This mod is all in one zip. Flash the below linked zip to install the mod. You can turn it on and off inside the app.

Flashable Zip

SELINUX MOD changer DOES NOT work on TouchWiz based lollipop ROMs. And it compromises the security of your device.

But thanks for non helpful sparky post. :cool:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] deaffob:
It does work on BOTH stock and custom COD4 Lollipop roms. Please explain how would the app compromises the security anymore than changing the SELinux mode to permissive manually? The app has its code posted on github so that anyone can audit.

Also please clearly know what you are saying before you make a disrespectful smartass comment. I suggested an alternative way and you just got upset for no reason.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ShrekOpher:
First of all SELinux MOD changer does not work on the stock kernel. I just tried it again. From the thread you linked. So please stop spreading false info. In fact if you look at the thread I shared this with the developer in the last post in the thread you linked.

Secondly nothing I posted above changes SELINUX TO PERMISSIVE it just allows the media controls to be modified at the root level thus allowing SELINUX to stay set go enforcing.

Thirdly, turning off SELINUX is what compromises the security of your phone, the app itself is fine but the end result is the issue.

I had my S6 for about a month now, and currently on the latest AOE2 version.

I have mine rooted and there are about 40 disabled apps. That's insane.

Now, with regular use, when I press the task switcher (multitask) on the left of the home button, there's always a 1 second delay, and then the card stacks pop up.

Taking photos is much faster than my previous devices, and I like that. But when switching to review my photos from the camera, it lags another 2-3 seconds.

I'm not using power saver mode, and memory usage seems to be fine.

Is everyone else experiencing similar lagginess? Or am I just too sensitive to lag?

I had similar issues when I removed some stuff from my ROM. I don't remember exactly what I put back but slowly 're-bloat' until you find the app that needs to be enabled.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] runandhide05:
Remove the old one from /system

Check to make sure its not in /data/app/com.htc.fm-1/...

If that folders there remove it.

Reboot.

Ensure its no longer in your app drawer.

Place the attached apk in /system/app/

Change permission to 0644 (rw-r--r--)

Reboot again and it will now be installed.

To shed a bit more light on your situation, you installed a system app, even though it installed to /data/app/ the app is still presumed a system app, the app is a non uninstall able app. Therefore the option to uninstall is not available via normal means (settings--apps---fmradio-- not option to uninstall)

So that's why you can not uninstall it via normal means. And the reason it will not install as a update is because the signatures are different meaning someone (HTC or third party) used a different signature when signing that apk.

[Nexus 6  General] amd-dude:
Hey guys, first post on the nexus 6 forums, just got mine a week ago. I'm sure many of you miss the notification light that most of us are use to. I know we can use the app lightflow to get the hidden led to light up but that is not what this is about. I for one miss double tap to wake on my G3 and Oneplus but there is another way and most of you already have the option activated. This magical setting, Ambient Display.

Instead of picking up the phone like a good boy or girl from your desk to check if there are notifications waiting, simply tap either the extreme right or left of the phone and this act will shake it causing the sensors to think you moved the phone and the ambient display will knock on. For those who don't follow, since the nexus 6 back is shaped like a U or curved tapping either side would cause the phone to rock.

That's it, just something I noticed and I did not see it mentioned anywhere, give it a try, no more picking up phones to check the time. Enjoy.
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
or, get root and use the real double tap to wake. you can get it working by app, or by kernel of choice. its actually included in the code for the n6, but not enabled. you can easily enable it, if you have root. besides, ambient display uses battery, and wakes often in the pocket(and gets really annoying).
[Nexus 6  General] stumpy352:
Ambient display doesn't wake up in my pocket. Chroma pocket mode. ? Still has to poll the prox sensor though, but I'm sure this would use less battery than the display waking up.
