[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forte0016:
So I've got a bit of an unusual situation. I had previously rooted my kindle 8.9, put it into recovery, installed CM, etc. Well, I was trying to get back to the stock Amazon OS, so I saw someone in another thread say they downloaded the most recent firmware from the Amazon website, change it to .zip and flash that, so I tried that. I did a full wipe and all that, and the OS installed fine, but now all I can access is the carousel, and if I hit any of the menu buttons, books, games, apps, etc. I can't back out of it, the Back/ Home/ Menu buttons aren't there. Plus the menu that's supposed to be at the top of the screen is not there. I figured I would just have to reroot it, but without being able to enable usb debugging I can't figure out how to do it. I can't seem to get adb or fastboot working either. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I think I goofed up pretty hard.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoldenBullet72:
What do you mean when you say that you can't back out of it? Can you go to the settings at all?

If you can, you are going to have to keep rebooting you kindle. And, if you used a recovery to install the Amazon Os, won't the recovery still be there? Can you access it?

How exactly did you get your zip?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forte0016:
I cannot get to the settings, the menu buttons appear on the bottom for a brief moment and then just disappear. Also, I got the OS from the official Amazon website and changed the filename to .zip. Looking at my message I admit what I did was pretty silly. At this point though, I'm thinking I may just buy one of those new $50 tablets.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhipple:
Android - I'm coming home! Now to find a phone.

Been looking at the Nexus 6 pretty hard. I don't want LG, and I refuse to pay premium prices for a Haiwei crash-o-matic piece of junk.

Spent some time at Best Buy today fondling a Nexus 6 - love the screen, love the feel, love the speed.

So, nearly a year after it's release, is it still worth it? Thinking about doing another 2 year with AT&T, which would make it $149, or $349 outright through Best Buy.

THoughts?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stylz3:
Plain and simple: Yes
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
Its as cool to have as an Indialantic beach! ;)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfen69:
People are still happy with their Nexus 4's for that matter, so I'd say yes, it's still worth it for the next 2 years. Although personally I despise 2 year contracts.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Powell730:
Most definitely. I have a Galaxy S6 and this thing blows it out of the water, except the camera. Way faster, much more support, better battery life.. Although I figured I'd get more than what I do. I'm keeping my eye out on the upcoming Nexus(es) but I have a feeling I'll stick with this and the S6 for awhile.

BTW I just purchased this about a month ago from Swappa. Couldn't stand being locked down with the S6 anymore.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayden2009:
Traded my G4 for a nexus and its so much better so YES ! Great screen, speakers and performance !! I will never use a skinned Android phone again !

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhipple:
Hmmmm... I just looked at the AT&T website - it was there last night, not there this morning.

I hope this doesn't mean they pulled it.

If they did my only hope is that they make the Moto X Pure available, but I am doubtful.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byrdcfmma:
Get the unlocked version! That way you have options. IMO, over the next 2-5 years, we are going to see major changes in the way cellular, and probably all technology, services are handled. It would suck to be locked in for the next 2 years.

Im on Straight Talk for $50 a month and using AT&T towers in my area w/ 4g LTE. Unlimited everthing Full speed up to 5g and throttled after that. Unless you are grandfathered in on some amazing deal, being locked in always favors the carrier.

BTW, Best Buy has 6 month interest free financing.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhipple:
I want the unlocked one, but funding is tight... plus so is the wife's purse LOL

She controls the money in the house so I play by her rules - happy wife, happy life!

Regarding the financing, I tried already - because I had a bankruptcy in the past 3 years Best Buy won't give me any credit (even though every other bank in the free world seems to be throwing it at me!)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] talk2nate:
My wife about cut me when I ordered our Nexus 6's because of the price haha! But now that she has one I doubt she'll let me get her out of the Nexus lineup from here on out. The Nexus community doesn't seem to die out like our devices often do. The hardware really isn't that dated. I admit the camera is a bit lacking on this device. Finding a case can be a challenge if you're a destroyer of phones like myself. But the speed, screen and speakers on this phone are amazing!

Case wise I had to get a unicorn beetle. It has saved my phone twice now.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhipple:
I contacted AT&T via Facebook - all they could tell me is that it wasn't available right now - which doesn't necessarily mean that they will not have it again, just that it's not available NOW. Go figure...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] felix168:
New Nexus is coming out later on this month or next month. It's made by Huawei. Guess AT&T have just unloaded all their old stock. Amazon and ebay sellers are doing the same.

CpuFloat

Uses a floating window or the status bar to show

# the cpu frequencies

# the cpu temperature if (available)

# the text will turn red when the cpu temperature rises above the throttle temperature. You can set custom throttle temperature in preferences.

# the gpu frequency

# Gpu load; not normalised

# the gpu temperature if (available)

# the text will turn red when the gpu temperature rises above the throttle temperature.

# awake time; the time the phone has been awake since starting the app

# deep sleep time; the time the phone has been asleep since starting the app

# battery current

# battery current

# current upload and download speed

In preferences you can choose

# floating window layout; vertical or horizontal layout

# to show the window in the status bar instead of a floating window

# the categories to monitor; all, cpu, gpu, time, network

# which temperature sensor to use for cpu and gpu temperature

# to show the temperature in Fahrenheit instead of Celsius

# cpu throttle point; cpu temperature when the text should turn red

The app uses following permissions:

"android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW" Needed for floating window, draw over other windows.

"android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" Read data to show e.g. Cpu frequency, temperature etc.

"android.permission.VIBRATE"

I'm trying to get the app to work on other phones, so if you have another phone, please test what's working.

If there's no cpu temperature, that probably means that the app can't find the temperature files. These are not the same on every phone.

If the phone is rooted, you can help me by copying and pasting below code in command line, with for example this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm

And posting the outcome here, so I can add the missing file.

su
find /sys -type f -name *temp* -print0|while read -d $'\0' f;
do printf "$f= "&&cat "$f";done;

Thanks!

Gpu temperature is a bit more difficult, because you need to find out which temperature sensor is for the gpu, I found that information for the oneplus in

/etc/thermal-engine-8974.conf

Reported working on:

OnePlus fully working

Moto X gpu temperature not working

Samsung S4 gpu temperature not working

Thank you!!

Edit

The app is fully working on the Sony Z3 Compact, it even uses the same files for cpu temperature and gpu temperature, maybe because it also has a snapdragon 801, but I'm not sure about that.
[ONE Themes and Apps] Killerkip:
I must be missing something but how do I reopen the window after having tapped on it to close it?

Because opening the app from the drawer takes me to the preferences screen.
[ONE Themes and Apps] waterdaan:
You're right, that's not very clear, I'll see if I can change that.

For now just change something in the preference screen and a new window will open.

[ONE Themes and Apps] waterdaan:
Thanks for stopping by

The Sony Z3 compact has the exact same cpu and gpu temperature files, and the same soc; snapdragon 801".

Do you know if the temperature files are soc dependant?

Same soc, same temperature files?
[ONE Themes and Apps] m11kkaa:
usually they are only soc dependent so all devices with the same soc should use the same files(in qcom terms 'thermalzone').

[ONE Themes and Apps] waterdaan:
Thank you for your nice reaction!

There are currently no plans to add baterry temperature, maybe some day, who knows...

As a workaround you can choose the battery temperature sensor to show the temperature for the gpu. To find the correct sensor, I think that in general the battery has the lowest temperature.
[ONE Themes and Apps] yobolegend:
Yup i set the gpu temp to hwmon16 as my battery temp and works well. Tnx
[ONE Themes and Apps] loretta1980:
Hi, great app. I also would like to see the batterytemp because i use a samsung phone, and every body knows how dangerous these devices can be ;)

Do you know the sensor name for the battery temp of the Samsung S4 i9506 LTE-A? [MENTION=7816819]yobolegend[/MENTION]: do you really think that the temperature of the emmc_therm sensor is the closest to the battery? i thougt emmc is a storage or something like that.
[ONE Themes and Apps] waterdaan:
Hi

So the big problem with these sensors is that they are different in different phones. Your hwmon16 may be a cpu temperature sensor while mine is a battery temperature sensor.

To find your battery sensor:

# Look in /system/etc/thermal-engine.config

# Or in CpuFloat go to settings -> temperature -> GPU, find the lowest temperatures, then plug in the phone and see which temperature rises most.
[ONE Themes and Apps] loretta1980:
i took the sensor which was close to the temperature of the value in cpu-z. CPU-Z measured 30.6°, the sensor hwmon16 31°.

On my Tablet Samsung 10.1 Pro (T520 Picassowifi or n2awifi) there is only 1 exynos sensor for the cpu. No other for gpu or battery. Is there a chance to get other sensors to work?

On my phone and tablet is the newest CM 13 installed.

BTW, is it possible to measure the real fps of the display for normal videos? i dont know the maximum frequencys for my devices.
[ONE Themes and Apps] waterdaan:
Please post a screenshot of CpuFloat -> settings -> temperature -> GPU

FPS is unfortunately not possible, as far as I know.
[ONE Themes and Apps] loretta1980:
There is only 1 entry:

exynos-therm: 37°C

/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0

GLTools has a feature for FPS overlay

BTW: There is no /system/etc/thermal-engine.config file
[ONE Themes and Apps] waterdaan:
Then unfortunately you won't be able to read the battery temperature with CpuFloat. As I said before, currently there are no plans to add baterry temperature, sorry.

By the way, GLTools is quite a different app.
