On Note 5, I can ping google.com and Chrome is working via the cable. But all other apps don't, like Google Photos, Youtube, Facebook.

Any idea why?

The script in this thread didn't work correctly so I had to improvise my own as below:
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] AngrySockPuppet:
Although I have a different device, I've given up on this and switched, instead, to a virtual android device.

There are some apps relating to fake WiFi which are supposed to address this issue but I've had no luck in getting some apps (e.g. Google Play) to use ethernet. I've also had limited results using reverse USB tethering.

What you're trying to do is what many would want. However, it's simply too good of an idea for the producers of proprietary systems and operating systems to tolerate. Efforts to give the people what they want seem to fall into a black hole of silence.

Thank you so much, never knew such research exists on this.

So does it mean there's no way to do it?

I thought I was close, as after the script above I've further did some changes and now Google Play works via Ethernet Cable. I can download apps, which wasn't working before.

Added command:

ip rule add from all lookup main pref 1

But still, WhatsApp and Google Photos still miss the connection. I really can't understand why?!

Oh now I see from the slides:
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] dan.leahu:
Actually found this which does a reverse tethering via USB cable + Linux computer. Hope it'll work better than trying to get Ethernet connection work.

Congratulations on getting Google Play to work. That's a big accomplishment.

You're way ahead of me though.

Perhaps you will have better luck with the fake WiFi apps as well.

My main interest in this is to use social media apps without wireless.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowcore:
I'm looking to replace my Sony z ultra phablet, however I need something cleared out.

1. Is the G4 a better choice? I'm on a budget relatively speaking and can get this phone for 280€.

2. Cm supported? How hard is it to root and install custom ROMs.?Each OEM seems to be doing their thing.

3. Does it have phantom clicks or ghost clicks? The main reason I want to switch my phone is that I am really annoyed by them.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3r02d3r0:
1. Imho, nope. G3 is an amazing phone.

2. Yes. It's quite easy to root and even easier to flash ROMs.

3. Haven't noticed. Which phone do you have now?

M2 D2303 method should work.

Downgrade to KK, root it, install recovery, make pre rooted 5.1.1, zip flash it, run RIC disabler. Enjoy ;)

Flash pre-rooted zip via recovery on rooted kk use v1.1 of PRFCreator beta version of supersu and t2u nut dual recovery. Works like a charm

Any link to pre-rooted 5.1.1 for d2403 lb...?

I tried d m2 d2303 kk method and it didn't work...

It was bootlooping not allowing me to flash the install the rootitXperia...
[Sony Xperia M2] aidy.lucas:
Then start at the bottom with jb root with towelroot then just ota update to KK as long as you do nothing else(I.e. Update or install anything else) the ota updates will still work

During creation with PRFCreator, I faced an error like:

Error: Could not find amss_fs_1

Error: Could not find amss_fs_2

I ignored those error and flashed the pre-rooted lollipop.zip via recovery on kk...

After the flashing it said "set_perm: some changes failed"

I ignored and tried to reboot and it came again "stock recovery must be installed" and it cannot be undone..."

I chose "No" and the device booted successfully...

After booting, I realised that the device wasn't rooted...

There's No ROOT...

No Recovery...

Please am I making any mistake...?

I need your help...

[Sony Xperia M2] aidy.lucas:
Then you've done something wrong, those two errors in the prf creator process are fine it'll still work.

Use version v1.1 PRFCREATOR

Which ever firmware you want to use

Beta version of supersu 2.47

Flashable version of nuts t2u dual recovery

Make pre-rooted zip and move to sdcard

Shutdown and enter recovery then

Wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache

Then Clean to install new rom still in recovery

Flash the pre-rooted zip DO NOT REBOOT YET

Still in recovery flash the supersu zip again then reboot(first one may take a while)

Go to Developer options in settings tick usb debugging

Flash AleksJ ric killer

Then using the pc installer version of nuts t2u dual recovery install the recovery again you should now have root and recovery on LB m2 5.1

But the t2u recovery is temporal, have to flash the pc installer everytime i want to boot into recovery...
[Sony Xperia M2] aidy.lucas:
Not had that problem. Download the NDR util app from the playstore and use it for entering recovery. I've not had any problems with it myself successfully made and restored back ups using both philz and TWRP only problem I came across is philz is sized for the t2u screen rather than the m2 one

[Sony Xperia M2] andyblessing:
The NDR Util installed automatically when i flashed the t2u in recovery...

But when i use it to boot into recovery, it boot normally...
[Sony Xperia M2] aidy.lucas:
Don't know what you've done then unless you have one of the different gpio events device(early or late model). Works perfectly for me select philz reboot to recovery works, set it to TWRP it reboots to TWRP recovery I've had my m2 for just over a year so it's a early model

[Nexus 6  General] gogol:
So, I could not find the answer to this, when is it exactly the doze mode activated (becoming active).

All articles only mention, after some time when the device is stationary (no movement).

How long is that some time?

After some read, found this article:

https://newcircle.com/s/post/1739/2015/06/12/diving-into-android-m-doze

And here is the source code of the DeviceIdleController:

http://tools.oesf.biz/android-MNC/xref/com/android/server/DeviceIdleController.java

It looks like, the doze mode will be activated after 1 hour (2 times 30 minutes).

But again, I am not Java developer, probably there are much more detail in the process.

What if the device is moved? Will the doze mode "cancelled"?

Well, it would be nice if custom ROM developer could add some customization in this, like shorten the activation time. Or even better, after the doze mode activated, it will stay active even if the device is moved (inside pocket), until the user do something (e.g. waking up, pressing button).
[Nexus 6  General] amerino1:
We need a developer to perform doze!!!!!

Enviado desde mi Nexus 6 mediante Tapatalk
[Nexus 6  General] anthonyg45157:
I had these exact same questions. How long does it take to enter doze and how much does it take to wake from doze? Like if I bump my phone on desk is it going to hop out of doze mode? Would be cool to alter the time limits. Glad someone is looking into this!
[Nexus 6  General] Hoyt Thompson:
And what parameters are measured for "stationary"? If the GPS is involved then truckers, EMTs, highway patrols and there like will never hit doze.
[Nexus 6  General] Bwyan Benton:
I would really hope Google would have considered that when making doze.

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Nexus 6  General] Hoyt Thompson:
I am sure they did but it would be easier for the devs to tweak it or us to use it to its potential if a more descriptive instruction is given rather than "stationary"

inquiring minds want to know and searches are turning up few results
[Nexus 6  General] gogol:
If I am not mistaken, the doze will detect "significant motion" for that stationary checking.

void startMonitoringSignificantMotion() {
if (mSigMotionSensor != null && !mSigMotionActive) {
mSensorManager.requestTriggerSensor(mSigMotionListener, mSigMotionSensor);
mSigMotionActive = true;
}
}

void stopMonitoringSignificantMotion() {
if (mSigMotionActive) {
mSensorManager.cancelTriggerSensor(mSigMotionListener, mSigMotionSensor);
mSigMotionActive = false;
}
}

However, how much significant? That's up to the manufacturer implementation. At least this is not defined in the software. That's what I understood. This is an explanation I found:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...-of-type-significant-motion-sensor-in-android

But again, I am not Android developer.
[Nexus 6  General] gogol:
I guess, to know about that significant motion, you can install this app (FREE) and then test with some motions :)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.axelk.sensorapp

From the app description:

Android Sensors is an very useful and simple application.

With Sensor Test for Android on your device you can view and read ALL AVAILABLE android-sensors. (similar to Sensor Box for Android or Phone Tester)

Additionally, you'll receive via the info button other useful information such as the sensor works and what it does.

I'd appreciate a good rating and a +1 (Google+)!

Sensor Test for Android is tested on different devices and versions.

I was not able to test all 8000 different types of Android devices, it´s possible that on some devices appear errors.

Affected people with a not working Sensor-Test-App should reboot and run it again.

Sensor Test for Android is still under construction!

If you have any troubles with your device, please send me an e-mail with the problem (Device-type, Android version, screenshot) before submitting a bad rating.

axelk.applications@gmail.com

List of available sensors: (not all sensors will be present in your device)

- ACCELEROMETER

- MAGNETIC FIELD

- ORIENTATION

- GYROSCOPE

- LIGHT

- PRESSURE

- TEMPERATURE

- PROXIMITY

- GRAVITY

- LINEAR ACCELERATION

- ROTATION VECTOR

- RELATIVE HUMIDITY

- AMBIENT TEMPERATURE

- MAGNETIC FIELD UNCALIBRATED

- GAME ROTATION VECTOR

- GYROSCOPE UNCALIBRATED

- SIGNIFICANT MOTION

- STEP DETECTOR

- STEP COUNTER

- GEOMAGNETIC ROTATION VECTOR

- HEART RATE

About me:

Sensor Test for Android is my technicians work I programmed in the summer holidays of my training as a technician (electrical engineering).

Before starting programming, I knew just how to spell JAVA.

I only had contact with LabView, a "painting by numbers" for programmers. For this application a documentation will be created, with which following students can easily incorporated into the Java programming language.

I'd appreciate a good rating and a +1 (Google+)!
[Nexus 6  General] anthonyg45157:
Downloaded the sensor app [MENTION=247385]gogol[/MENTION] seems a good amount of movement is needed for significant motion be counted(walking a few steps). Gonna do some more testing... Thanks for the info!
[Nexus 6  General] gogol:
Good to know! :)

I am wondering if putting the phone inside our pocket would trigger significant motion. Otherwise, we need to put it lay down stationary on the table :)

Thanks for the experiment.

No, no AWS, but speed as good as AWS anyway.

Thank you for the info. I recently discovered another variant "e5803" instead of the model mentioned here and elsewhere e5283. It seems to list the same radio frequencies but could this just be a naming variation or will this be the US model similar to z3c d5803?

Lastly, if we are purchasing a supposed "international" model, will Sony USA provide us warranty or would be from the seller?

Got my note back in November, rooted through odin in December. Everythings been grand and perfect.

Till I watched a video on youtube 2-3mnths ago about good rooted apps (wanted to get more daring other than xposed) loaded gsm gestures app? I think was the name. Kept it for a week, didnt use it. Uninstalled it, phone rebooted, instead of the normal "app uninstalled"

After that my phones been laggy, freezes, and freezes and turns off. Its factory wiped itself 8 times. I have countless posts on Reddit timelining everything. Long short is, tried liquid smooth to see if that would fix my problem, lost text messaging with that could only text for an hr a day, flashed stock sprint firmware and rerooted afterwards, have been slow to reload apps on phone, incase of factory reset or whatever. my phone is now taking 75+ batter pulls to get into a normal boot, every 15bat pulls it jumps into download mode "could not do normal boot ddi_mms read fail" and now an ssl text ive only seen once today, ill try and write that down if it happens again.

Finally when I get back into my phone, sometimes I have to update prl to get service again, the other day my phone lost signal and all my network settings were unselected, I had to select them all and my phone was fine, then I was on the phone and it cut me out in the middle of a call and said roaming lost or something, and I had to reapply cdma/lte on sprint.

Im beyond frustrated, im getting married in 2 weeks, and going out of country immediately after, so I need a working phone as most my business is conducted through it. I have no upgrade on sprint, and cant afford to throw out 400$ for a "new" note 4

Please please please someone help me.

Thanks for your time.

Hi, I've got a problem. Some time ago I installed GPE ROM on ma M7. Then everyting was working properly except ADB. I wasn't able to debugg any app on my phone, cause it was still showing that device is offline. So, I decided to try to factory reset my phone. After that I can't see any folder in SDCARD folder. I used several file managers including "Root Browser" and "ES Eksplorator". Both shows that SDCARD folder is empty. Additionaly, when I plug my phone to PC i see only 4 folders, every of them are empty and I can't copy anything to my phone.

[IMG="PC"]http://i.imgur.com/W0p7pbV.jpg[/IMG]

What is more interesting, in TWRPs File Manager I can see all my folders and files:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
When having problem to see your files on /sdcard when on lollipop roms, you can fix this problem normally by using these commands from a rooted rom with usb debug enabled:

adb shell
su
restorecon -FR /data/media/0
exit

Then reboot the phone.

btw /data/media/0 = /sdcard

As for your adb offline issues, looks like you already tried everything I could think of. IS your screen unlocked when you try to use adb commands? Anyway you could use adb from twrp terminal so you can at least fix (maybe) your sdcard issue.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mefa2:
Thanks, for the replay :)

I will try to fix SDCARD issue then, cause for now I need fully working phone.

BTW, it's interesting that I easly get 2.5-3h SOT on GPE ROM, while on stock ROM it's hard for me to get 2h with Energy Saving Mode On.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mefa2:
Ok, I still have problem with my SDCARD. Now, I even can't take a picture, because I get that communicat:

"Unable to save file to SD card due to insufficient file permissions."

I tried to run "restorecon" command on my phone via adb, but I get this error:

>adb shell
shell@m7:/ $ su
shell@m7:/ # restorecon -FR /data/media/0
SELinux: Loaded file_contexts from /file_contexts
SELinux: Could not stat /data/media/0: Permission denied.

When I'm trying to run this command via TWRP, I get error, that there is no -F parametr (or something like this).

I'd like to add, that I was trying to root my phone and when I connect it to my PC, in "WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit v2.5" app I can see that my phone is already rooted, but when I run SuperSU app on my phone, then there is mentioned that my phone isn't rooted and I have to update "SU binary". Then I agree and after that I get info that it wasn't able to update "SU binary".

Does anyone faced problem like this?

EDIT:

Ok, I manually installed SU binaries (I sideloaded the file via TWRP adb) and now I have root access, but I still can't take any pictures. After restorecon command, now I get this:

root@m7:/ # restorecon -FR /sdcard/media/0
