[Fire TV Themes and Apps] TheFixItMan:
You should be able to use wifi direct (if your phone supports it) to directly cast video stored on your device If your phone & fire tv is connected to the same network

There's 3 ways of doing it

1- use an app called allcast or allconect from the playstore

Install app on phone

Install the allcast receiver app or allconect receiver on fire tv

Open receiver app

Search for devices on your phone with the all cast app

Or

2- Create a media server on the fire box

Install bubbleupnp on both your phone and fire tv

Install bubbleupnp server launcher on the fire box

Start the server & configure it on both devices

Open bubbleupnp on the box

You can then cast video from any app that supports screen cast by opening the streams in the bubbleupnp app on your phone making sure you have set the receiver to the fire box

You can also use method 2 to stream stuff from kodi playing on your phone to the box but this requires a config file but I have done it and it works

Or

3 - install allconect app from playstore

Install kodi

Set kodi to receive airplay from settings-services-airplay

Now open allconect up and it should be able to detect kodi as a media streamer and you can cast videos or apps that support screen cast assuming both devices are on the same network but this method also works if your fire tv is connected to your phones wifi hotspot

Im using miracast dongle to mirror my screen on my samsung tv. Im getting some pixeliness and some lag. Tried to lower the resolution with secound screen app, and the lag got a bit better but HD videos still look crappy.

Any ideas?
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] Sanfe:
Thanks for your app. I see that there are a variety of resolutions, but ... All dongles support this like ezcast? I like to try this in a 1280x1024 VGA monitor with a Miracast and HDMI to VGA adapter.

So I experienced really crappy battery and it did not get better after chaning roms and kernels, using greenify, amplify and so on. I bought myself a new battery and replaced the old but I don't seem able to calibrate it properly. I can have 90% and then plug the charger se it go up to 100% in 5 seconds. Then unplug it and it shows 40%.

I charged the battery for 8 hours on a strong charger and started it and used the "battery calibration" app and calibrated. Tried this 3 times but it doesn't help. Any idea what I might try?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidObsession:
my zen if im using with cell data off and lowest brightness (which i feel is still too bright) and letting dragon blaze run for about... 1 hour from 10:20am-3pm and then leaving the screen on i went from 94%-70%... is that good?

i find at work if i only turn the screen on to check the time and turn screen back off thru out the 4 hours i use 3-8%

how long "should" it be lasting if i just do web browsing, pandora, or gps?

again, thanks for reading -hugs-

off-topic: is there a way without much tampering or using another app to bypass the brightness limits? because as I already gave my opinion "i feel the brightness even at lowest is still tooooo bright"
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
You can use the app "Screen Filter" to dim the brightness below what the lowest is. I use it at night a lot.

Consider your screen on time. I get about 4-5 hours of screen on time before it dies. On standby, it drained about 5% over 6 hours when I didn't touch it at all.

hi all.

as title, I have a pioneer sph-da100 and an Samsung android phone, I was thinking of getting a Samsung allshare cast dongle, but will it work strait out the box without AR liberator.

or is there any other dongle that will work and mirror the phones screen and have the touchscreen work on the h/u with the pioneer app.

don't want to use AR liberator because I have no idea about rooting a phone.

any help or advice is very welcome

[Samsung Gear S] ChardC:
Hey,

Is it possible for someone with a SM-R750P and is also familiar with SDB to pull the contents of /usr/system/RestoreDir from their device and share the contents with me please? I'm not certain if it will be possible without root, but I'll never know unless someone tries and provides feedback.

The reason for this request is to test the restoration of some basic functionality with a SM-R750P that was lost when I flashed the SM-R750J to gain root access.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Gear S] fgr:
No Go

d:\tsdb>sdb pull /usr/system/RestoreDir

sh-3.2$ cd usr
sh-3.2$ cd system

: Not all nightly builds will be tested before uploading, so only flash, if you really know what you do and how to handle a bootloop or whatever could happen... I am not responsable for your bricked or imploded device! In general I test my builds on my volantisg (a.k.a. flounder_lte) but they should also work on the non-lte flounder.

[Nexus 9 Android Development] gladiac:
Hi diskoteer,

does your build compile bcopy.c into libc? There are some apps out there, like firefox, that use bcopy. They all wont start without bcopy. This fix did not work in my builds for some reason so I had to force the inclusion by removing the ifeq in line 79 of bionic/libc/arch-arm/arm.mk. You can test if bcopy works in your builds by starting firefox. If it crashes and the error report screen appears it does not work.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fleischbanane:
Tried to update from the official CM12 nightlys but after the first boot there was an message wich told me that I have to contact the manufactorer. After restoring my CM12 nightly everything works fine.

Wiped system and flashed the last build + new gapps for Android 5.1, but no luck.

It's only an information for other people who want to dirty flash over CM12.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] gladiac:
This message is harmless. It is solely a check that google implemented in Android 5.1 that compares /system/build.prop with the values found in /vendor/build.prop. If they differ you get that error message. All you need to do to get rid of the error is to change the 3 values in /vendor/build.prop according to the values in /system/build.prop.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] diskoteer:
This is a known problem and has something to do with build.prop in /vendor and /system. For details have a look here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60695940&postcount=37 in dcrin3's thread. I for myself have not changed anything in build.prop, I am clicking "ok" in this message, it is just a notice. Everything works fine...

Does anyone is in need for the 5.1.1 bootloader or vendor.img?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] diskoteer:
Actuallly I do not know. I don't use firefox, maybe someone who use it can test it? Is there any way to test for bcopy from terminal?

New build up: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347758256
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fleischbanane:
Thank you very much for the script, but i'm on Windows and it would be very nice if you can upload the modified vendor.img, so I don't have to set up a VM with all this stuff.

Edit: Flashed the latest build and new gapps for 12.1 over CM12 and everything works perfect, except the warning. But now I know that it's not a big thing and ignore it. :good:
[Nexus 9 Android Development] tjormola:
Sorry, I'm not the maintainer of the ROM in this thread and I don't use it myself (I'm compiling my own CM 12.1 snapshots until the official Nexus 9 build is upgraded to 12.1) so I'd rather not try to maintain something that isn't completely under my control. Maybe [MENTION=3864142]diskoteer[/MENTION] would like to build and maintain the Wi-Fi and LTE vendor images for his ROM built using this script?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] gladiac:
Well, the problem is that the values in build.prop are different in every build. This is why we would have to deliver a vendor image for every new build too. That's not very maintainable. IMHO we should mount /vendor and generate /vendor/build.prop from the information found in /system/build.prop at installation-time of the rom.

//edit:

Something like this would suffice:

grep -E "^ro\.build\.(date(\.utc)?|fingerprint)=" /system/build.prop |sed -e"s/^ro\./ro.vendor./" > /vendor/build.prop
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fleischbanane:
Thanks for the feedback. I didn't know it would be so difficult, but the message is no big thing... till my wife will see it the first time. [emoji2]
[Nexus 9 Android Development] diskoteer:
Sorry guys, the script is not working on my Mac. So I will not maintain modified vendor images...
[Nexus 9 Android Development] gladiac:
I just created an update-zip that fixes the error message in a pretty generic way (it should work no matter what rom you use). It mounts /system and /vendor, extracts the relevant information from /system/build.prop and creates a new /vendor/build.prop. I successfully tested it on my nexus 9 so I decided to release it right here.

Just install it via your recovery and you are done! This has to be done every time you flash a new build.

Have fun and let me know if it worked for you!
