I have a Zenfone 6 and I use TWRP to backup my system evry now and then, I never had to use recovery feature so I have a doubt, does TWRP backsup the MicroSD data too??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdude22:
I recently bought a phone from the u.s.a. I managed to root the phone and now it is working great on my canadian sim card.

Here is the phone details:

Phone: Verizon Note 2

Mode: SCH-I605

Android version: 4.4.2

Baseband version: I605VRUFND7

This phone is rooted and now on a canadian simcard.

The only problem i found this morning is that i cannot share my mobile data. Here is the problem:

Every time turn on "Mobile Hotspot"

I get this screen:

Checking subscription status... then Mobile number not found

So i am unable to use share my data connection to my laptop. I had a canadian note 2 before this and mobile data worked fine.

How could i enable mobile hotspot? Is there a crack somewhere?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdude22:
woo hoo!! i found a solution.

Those big cellphone companies make me angry.

Thank you very much to the developer. There is a lot of great developers here. Everytime i come here it seems someone has developed something to take care of my solution such as root etc.

I never donate to charites. But for there hard work i always donate to developers. I hope everyone else does too.

My solution:

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. You could try using 3rd party keyboards such as swiftkey or Swype. The Sony file you are trying to use won't work on your device.

Hello Everyone!

I've just published a new game on the Android Marketplace. It's called "Flapper Force Z"! I'm a new user so I can't post a link, but you can find it on the Android marketplace easily enough just by doing a search for "Flapper Force Z".

I hope you like it! Let me know what you think. I appreciate feedback.

Hello.

Is there any way to obtain the TouchFLO usability from the new HTC Touch, into Universal? I don't think there are any hardware changes as to how the screen handles finger moves and clicks.

Maybe any plans on a new WM6 Rom for Universal that might support it?

If yes, would it be the whole Touch interface, including dark gray apearance, etc?

Thanks people. :)

EDIT: Just read about the first TouchFlo Rom (Ivan i Think), but there is lack of feedback as for the usability of the Touch feature, or the dark grey today theme/caller apearance... Any help?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Midget_1990:
there are hardware changes
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] kdskamal:
Yep, the hardware of HTC touch is different which enables it to do some 'gestures' on the screen. So, all we can 'taste' is the today plugin which it uses :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] congogr:
Thank you both for your responses. Midlet, I have user your ROMs before. :)

However, I don't understand what the changed might be, since "drag n' drop" finger actions are possible in Universal or any other PPC (for example, using the finger to move an icon in some other place, on "Spb Pocket Plus Today Plugin"...

Any specific info on Why "HTC Touch" is different (apart from the LCD protective material which -just a guess- may be a little more matte, in order for the finger to easily move on it) on this device?

Still, I can't figure out why a finger gesture needs extra/changed hardware. I would understand it if it accepted more than one touches at the same time, but this?...

Thanks...

So I got a brand spanking new Nexus 6 and right out of the box I had a issue where it thought the headphones were in, I wiped it flashed stock ROM and custom ROM still happened, called in for warranty and tmobile sent me a refurbished one that clearly had the screen replaced cause you could still see the plastic under the glass. Well last night the brand new one stopped doing it and is now working flawlessly, I'm thinking about keeping the new one and calling them and telling them nevermind but do you think it will happen again?? Should I just keep the referb?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Stig 04:
Yikes this is one of those things that's best left up to you BUT since you are asking lol. IMO I would keep the new one seeing that it's brand new, not sure how visible/or even as to why there is plastic under the glass but it would bother the crap out of me knowing the screen at one point had to be replaced for whatever reason.

Hi

Onda offers 2 versions (beside the hdd/ssd size)

- v116w with 2GB and Intel Atom Z3736F with DUAL OS0

and

- v116w with 4GB and Intel Core M with Wind 8.1

I was wondering if it is possible to install on the Onda v116w Intel Core M also a DUAL OS ? Technically it should be possible as the new Teclast X1 Pro comes with DUAL OS and has almost the same hardware specs.

In my opinion such a DUAL OS Tablet would be great !

Can anyone help me on this matter?

For Tablet Z Android 5.0.2 firmware 10.6.A.0.454​

A lot of people noticed, that in 10.6.A.0.454 firmware volume level is lower than on KitKat.:(

I think, partially, it is because there is no separate switch for xLoud in audio settings.

So here is a fix for it. You need Root.

You should flash one of this files with recovery.

or

If you don't have recovery, unpack archive and replace the original file snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3 in /system/etc/snd_soc_msm/ set -rw-r--r--(644) rights and reboot device.

File with volume level ~ as in KK or a bit more.

File volume increased even more.
[Xperia Tablet Z Themes and Apps] zolaisugly:
Thanks for this mod. Can I just ask what is it that you changed?
[Xperia Tablet Z Themes and Apps] Cat McGowan:
The file modified is \system\etc\snd_soc_msm\snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3.

I did a file comparison between the original file and the two modified files and found the modification consists of changing every instance of volume level value 68 to 71 (first file) or 75 (second file) and adding the line PlaybackVolume "Internal FM RX Volume" under # ALSA PCMs of section SectionModifier Name "Play FM" (line 5044 in both modified files).

After applying the modifications to snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3, I did not hear any discernible difference in volume levels.

I was curious as to why \system\etc\snd_soc_msm\snd_soc_msm_2x was not also modified. I did a file comparison between the original snd_soc_msm_2x and snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3 files and found snd_soc_msm_2x contains the PlaybackVolume "Internal FM RX Volume" line whereas snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3 does not. Also, snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3 includes sections named SectionModifier Name "Play VOIPUSB PROXY Rx" and SectionModifier Name "Play VOIPUSB PROXY Tx" whereas snd_soc_msm_2x does not.

I applied the volume level value changes (68 to 75) to the snd_soc_msm_2x file and then I heard a difference in volume levels.
[Xperia Tablet Z Themes and Apps] Rootk1t:
In my files max volume is increased (68-75) and it can be heared straight after reboot. I don't know why you don't hear it.

snd_soc_msm_2x modification is not needed, as PlaybackVolume "Internal FM RX Volume" relates to FM Radio, and Play VOIPUSB PROXY Tx to smth VOIP, and is not RX, but TX.

Also i didn't add any lines to file. Maybe you're using another firmware or smth.

See screenshot. Line 5044. Left Stock from unpacked .ftf, right modified. Only 68->75. No more.

Is it possible to watch 3D Movies on a network drive (e.g. on a PC shared drive) in Gear VR?

I find it a pain to have to copy the 3D movies from the PC and then delete them and copy new ones again - especially given that 3D Movies could be pretty large and can take some time to copy over.

Thanks,

Osho

Not with Oculus cinema. You can always use Kodi.

Download the movie via the kodi app on phone.

u/heavykick has discovered a way to launch MilkVR to stream over smb from ES file explorer.

I can't post the links but google "milkvr_streams_from_smb_es_file_explorer" for the r/gearvr reddit post.
[Samsung Gear VR] heavykick:
Hi :)

yes, you can stream with milkVR from any http source. There is ESFileExplorer included because it starts a local http server. But there is a problem with the Oculus service. When ever you launch your GearVR is will close all running apps to give you full resources for your VR experience.

But when you use developer mode ESFileExplorer can run in background and stream smb to the local http server.

But when you have a NAS you can use a media server like plex with dlna like bubblUpnp or anDLNA or emby.media witg the emby app. I think it should also work with webDav.

Here are my reddit threads about this:

[Samsung Gear VR] madsquabbles:
Archos can play SBS video through dlna or smb share. I don't have my vr yet so I can't saynhow well it works.
[Samsung Gear VR] MANswers:
I use Kodi extensively, and including on my phone using the official app.

I think this can be done using a the official kodi app, i dont see any reason why you wont be able to do it. In your kodi app you can setup smart playlists and map your SMB location.

It doesnt need to be copied manaually to your phone.

If you are within the network, you should be able to view the movies, but here is a question, will you be able to the 3d format movies in your samsung VR? My VR should come in by 24th, will check and let you know. I really dont know the function of the VR being compatible with 3d movies... :(
[Samsung Gear VR] madsquabbles:
archos doesn't seem to work so well. BS Player works pretty good and you can zoom the image until you get a good fit.
[Samsung Gear VR] Olywa123:
Not to get at anyone but there is a lot of misinformation in this thread, many apps being recommended/suggested do not run in gear vr (do these people have one?).

I use emby media server on my pc, it's free and easy to set-up and this way I can access all my media through the gear vr browser and both 2d and 3d content is supported.
[Samsung Gear VR] MANswers:
thats good info. Have u tried Plex? does that work on VR?
[Samsung Gear VR] Olywa123:
Not tried plex but the Gear VR web browser seems pretty robust, assuming a plex server can be accessed from a web browser without a specific app required then I see no reason it will not work.
[Samsung Gear VR] MANswers:
Thanks, my vr shud be delivered by thursday, cannot wait enough, plex has an app as well, i wonder that would work with the vr.

By the way, as somone posted earlier, can you watch ur 3d movies on the vr? wont u see like three colors as u see in a non-3d tv
[Samsung Gear VR] Olywa123:
Android apps don't work inside of Gear VR, the browser would be the only option. No issues with 3D movies though, it supports 3D side by side and 3D over under formats and they look great.

Ooh one thing, from you sig are you running a custom rom on this phone? The gear vr doesn't play well with non stock kernels and also relies on some services that may have been stripped out of you rom. You may be fine but if any problems you may need to revert to stock unfortunately.
[Samsung Gear VR] MANswers:
Those were the days, those were the days... when i could install multiple roms on the phone, but with the new digitial wallet and Knox, no.

ROm was installed on my previous Note 3 phone, on the galaxy edge plus i am stock. and i love the samsung pay
[Samsung Gear VR] Olywa123:
LOL, I see you changed your sig :) Same thing, was always custom and rooted until all this banking stuff.

There is a good app if you are not aware that can still disable some of the Sammy bloat without root.... Package Disabler Pro, I'd advise against playing with this until you've got your VR set up but it's useful for turning some un-required stuff off, including temporarily disabling the Gear VR services from launching if you wanted to run Cardboard apps occasionally. Definitely don't use the "One click bloat ware removal" feature tho as that will break Gear VR stuff.
[Samsung Gear VR] eboneagle:
Hello everyone, I recently just got a Note 5 and the new Gear VR and spent all last weekend trying to do this streaming thing due to only having 32gb. Finally got a final solution which was mentioned software called Package Disabler Pro(only turn off Gear VR service, back on to use oculous software) don't have to be rooted and doesn't trip knox. Then use es file explorer as streaming software and then select whatever flavor video player you like. Really wish network streaming option was just built into the Oculous software it would rock so hard.
[Samsung Gear VR] oshogg:
That is great news. Can you provide more detailed instructions/step-by-step on how to enable this? I am not even sure how to use Oculous instead of Gear VR...

Thanks,

Osho
[Samsung Gear VR] eboneagle:
Basically just get a hold of the disabler pro program cost me like $7-$8 might be more in other countries. Pays for itself in the fact you can manipulate the phone without breaking the warranty, but like mention stay away from the disable bloatware button and don't click on things your not sure about. Launch the program and look for Gear VR Service and click the box beside it to disable and you can close it and now can use google cardboard apps. Un-check that box to revert back to using the Original software that boots up soon as you plugged the phone into the Gear headset.

I got all my movies in a folder on one of my PC machines, I just share it and good there. Then need to get the IP of that machine that storing the files(in my case using a windows 7 machine), hit the windows key type in cmd. Brings up a black dos box and type in ipconfig to get the address. Boot up ES file explorer on the phone goto the LAN section and at the bottom hit the new button, brings up a new window type in the address of server plus login name and password. Usually whatever your using to log into the machine its that same user name and password. Hit OK and should show the server on the phone screen click it and it will list all your drives and shared folders. Goto your shared folders and click your movie file then it will ask what video player you want to use, I have multiple apps on my phone as I was checking them all out. Main one I use for VR and regular movies is AAA VR Cinema really easy and has tons of options. On the ES file explorer there is a network discovery button to make things easier but it didn't like my network so had to do things manually LOL.

The Gear VR itself runs Oculous its totally different from Google cardboard system and looks hell of a lot better but having lots of options is a good thing. There is one thing you should be aware of when you start using 3rd party software outside of the Oculous eco system and it called drifting , its this really annoying thing where the screen will start shifting to the left or right on its own. Noticed this only happens when the phone starts to get toasty, really hate the fact they took away the removable back cover on Note 5 /grrr. Some programs have a recenter button or other times just have to restart the app really sucks when playing games.

There is a safer solution; just buy an Sd card + OTG card reader and then copy all your movies into this Sd card
[Samsung Gear VR] eboneagle:

USB stick works OK directly in the Note 5. With an OTG plug the Note 5 can read the data on it as external USB.

However..... I tried to put an OTG in the headset's USB entry.

Plugged in the USB of the Gear VR I do not have the idea it sees any data on it. Maybe its really only for battery loader.
