[Samsung Gear S2] charlievegamena:
I have the same problem. Yesterday i was texting from my Gear S2 classic, and since this morning i dont get any notification of text messages on my gear. Also Snapchat, Twitter, messaging, and email notifications won't get to my gear. They only show up on my phone. I have done a factory reset two times now, i have deleted the gear app and reinstalled it, i have turned the notifications off from the gear app settings and turned it off again, i have unpaired and paired the watch over and over again, i have looked through every available setting in the gear, and the phone and still no solution for my problem. I am using a Galaxy s 6 edge
[Samsung Gear S2] gte678n:
Anybody figure this one out yet? Just received mine 12/10, and received texts that morning, none since. Still receives calls and alarms, just no texts or emails..

Gear S2 messages fail on phone

When I send a message from my Gear S2, it will say message sent. Then, when I look at my phone message thread, it says messages failed on phone. It has been doing this for months! I sent my watch back to Samsung and they can't find a problem and Best Buy can't fine anything wrong with the phone (Galaxy S6) either. Is anyone having the same problem?
[Samsung Gear S2] thumtagged:
Hi guys,

I just bought a Gear S2 and found out that Gear Manager and the other required software from the Google Play Store are not supported for the OPT.

I found a thread here providing the APKs in order to support the Gear S2 on the OPT, however it does not work for me as it failed when it requires me to download the Gear S2 Plugin.

Used a Samsung S4 to download the required softwares from the Playstore and extracted the APKs.

Hence I'm sharing them here for those who are in the same situation as me.

I have tested the APKs with my OPT and everything works fine.

Compatibility List as of 11 Oct 2015:

Oneplus 2

If you tested other phones that works let me know and I can update this list.

Required APKs:

Samsung Gear

Samsung Accessory Service

Gear S2 Plugin

Enjoy!

Yours is a Samsung. Should be able to download all the required software from the Playstore right?
[Samsung Gear S2] Lorenzo04:
I have an SM-N9200 on AT&T, and no matter what tried it wouldn't connect. No updates available or anything. Wish I knew what the issue was, but this fixed it.

The watch connected just fine with a note 4, it was very frustrating. Looks like from the reviews on the gear app in the Samsung store I'm not alone.
[Samsung Gear S2] thumtagged:
Great! Glad that it solved your problems.
[Samsung Gear S2] N4KA:
Thanks for your effort. I tried these apps as well but still getting following error: 'The operating system on your phone has been modified in an unauthorized way, and is not compatible with the Samsung Gear app. Check your operating system and try again.'

I am on a custom ROM and rooted Note 2.

Do I need to install an official firmware or is there a way around?

Thanks.
[Samsung Gear S2] thumtagged:
I'm totally a newbie in custom rom and rooted stuff but the error seems to point to a unsupported rom or rooted device. I have no rooted device to test if the s2 works with it.
[Samsung Gear S2] ripv2:
Is anyone having issues connecting to the gear app store within gear manager? I'm getting a white blank screen? Do we need the latest updates Samsung released to the play store? If so can you port them with your Samsung device?
[Samsung Gear S2] thumtagged:
It was blank just like you said couple of hours ago for me too. It works for me now. Try it. I did not do any updates nor was there any updates to apply.
[Samsung Gear S2] ripv2:
There is updates for both the gear plugin and the gear manager. You won't see the updates if your on a non supported device. That's why someone with a supported device should continue to extract the latest updates and post them in this thread.

[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cedric1955:
I've had the xperia z5 for one day now and the phone has been great, however when i'm watching twitch or YouTube the phone can freeze. In the case of twitch the app just crashes and I need to go to the homescreen, close the app and restart it. In the case of YouTube it just pauses. These freezes usually happen every 5 minutes or so and are very annoying. If i'm wearing my headphones I can hear a beep right before it freezes. The freezes also happen in other apps, but there they just feel like they is some lag, however in videos it is very noticeable. I've already uninstalled all possible apps, but the problems remains when watching youtube videos.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem or do i just have a defective unit?
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mas5acre:
mine seems fine. If people continue to not comment, I'd say defective, but make sure you try a factory reset first. Probably would be helpful if you listed your model. Mines an E6653.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cedric1955:
Mine is also the E6653, where can i find how to factory reset it?
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghfatw:
Mine is a 6653 -- I have had one strange freeze overnight in which the phone lost about 30% of its battery but it did not show up in battery statistics and the screen was black and not responding to the on/off button (even long presses) and it was also not charging in any way. I eventually pushed enough buttons and it restarted and the phone behaved normally. When I restarted it the relevant battery usage statistics were all missing. I can't wait for root as I'd like to see the logs.

[About XDA developers] geulanow:
I used to be able to log in with my username moshiachnow. Today I tried to do that, but it kept prompting me to link my log in with a Google log in. It also had me pick a different user name. So now I have this extra log in, geulanow, and no idea how I can log into my previous account. I tried resetting the password, got a new password, but keep getting logged into geulanow instead.

What am I missing here?

Thanks.
[About XDA developers] the_scotsman:
When logging in, you must have pressed the red Google button next to the sign in area. You should instead press the > arrow next to the username/password entry. This will log you in after entering your details.

I've deleted your new account, and you still have your old [MENTION=4186699]moshiachnow[/MENTION] account.
[About XDA developers] xt23:
Could you please make the design a bit more intuitive?! For example make two buttons, and label one "sign in" and the other "sign in with google".

When you are the designer of the site and therefore know how it's supposed to work, then it's easy. But if you are a user who sees this for the first time then there is absolutely no clue to figure this out, other than by luck / randomly pressing somewhere (which usually isn't a smart idea). I didn't even get, that this little arrow is supposed to be a butten. Thought it to be just a design element without any function.

Because of privacy issue I din't want to sign in with google and therefore started experimenting and searching to figure out an alternate way to log in without google. Took me about 15 Minutes to find this thread. Was near on giving up on xda an searching for an alternate forum.

So let's start the discussions with Hi :). Im pretty sure many of the Z2 here love to take pictures underwater.But some of the models give moisture on the lens and the PHONE IS 100% IN PERFECT CONDITION. after the action underwater.So why does this happens even when the phone on normal temperature before dipping it under water(Tap water for example). Can anyone explain?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
Z2 ended up being shipped with ALOT of faulty units so water resistancy is hit and miss for this device

Not so much with other xperias but it still can happen due to sony finding out that the company who tested water resistancy didnt do it properly

(Aka dipping it in a tank of water and leaving it)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
Updated to stock 5.1.1 on my note 4 n910u variant last week, and I noticed that it kills apps that are suppose to stay in memory,like Adguard or pintasking. This was not an issue on 5.0.1 and I'd like to know if anyone has observed this.

I'm not running any task killing apps or Xposed modules.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pr1jker:
Yep, me too. 5.1.1 is closing apps like Network manager, Silent, No root vpn,...

don't have task killer and not rooted
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
Damn. I guess it was too much to ask to get a fully functional firmware update from Sammy? ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapek666:
I think it happens when an app calls System.exit() upon service termination. Previously, the system would restart the service but now it seems it kills it until restarted manually.

Try contacting the app's author to ask if they do that.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapek666:
Well, on second thought, it seems to still kill my app even though I removed System.exit().

I have no idea why it happens. Services are supposed to be restarted automatically.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
Sigh... this is probably why 5.1.1 is giving me better battery life... it kills everything ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapek666:
I wonder what "algorithm" they use through because it doesn't happen with everything. I know that once a service is killed that way, the only way to run it again is to start the app manually.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapek666:
Could it be that? http://androiding.how/fix-app-reloading-galaxy-s6-5-1-1/
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
It'd be interesting to know and I may try it later on. I wonder if this might help with multitasking in general - not just services being killed.

EDIT: doesn't help with multitasking, but I'll see if it helps with the persistent apps closing.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapek666:
Ok, the thing is called "SmartAdjustManager" and it's indeed some thing that tries to classify running processes.

I'm not fully done with it yet but it seems the following factors avoid killing:

- it's a Samsung process (of course)

- it's a carrier added package

- it's some Google services (but not Android Wear it seems, which is quite an oversight)

- it has a widget running on the homescreen (could be a usable workaround for some apps)

- it has a notification

- its packagename ends with ".cocktailbarservice" ;) *

It does its statistics during a few days (3 days.. 7 days..) which explains why things can run well then all of a sudden a particular services gets killed all the time.

Its whitelist can be updated by some external system but I didn't find where the file is yet.

The following build.prop vars control it (default in parenthesis):

sys.config.samp_enable (true)

sys.config.samp_hotness_enable (true, needs samp_enable too)

sys.config.samp_spcm_enable (false)

sys.config.samp_debug (false)

sys.config.samp_debug_trace (false)

sys.config.samp_debug_spcm (number, none)

It also uses these vars for memory management (when to kill and so on):

sys.config.s_dha_margin

sys.config.s_dha_bg_max

sys.config.s_dha_bg_min

sys.config.s_dha_db_kill

sys.config.s_dha_extra_cache

sys.config.s_dha_cache_max

sys.config.service_kill_adj

*: so it seems the workaround in my case is to add .cocktailbarservice to my packagename.. ridiculous.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapek666:
You can add the package name to a whitelist stored at:

/data/misc/lpnet/lpnetConfig

(needs root)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapek666:
Ok, I tested:

sys.config.samp_spcm_enable=false

This disables the service killing. My phone is now more reliable (no missing wear notifications, no missing calls from my VoIP app, etc...).

Also for improved memory management:

sys.config.samp_enable=false
ro.config.fha_enable=true

The first one disables the whole SmartAdjustManager nonsense. The 2nd one switches to a simpler memory management closer to the one that AOSP uses. It's like I'm using a new phone!

Conclusion: the Samsung mobile team has no idea of what they're doing. If they think that killing and restarting processes all the time is going to solve anything, they're wrong. It only gives a sluggish phone as a result.

Try COI or COJ Stock update.

Everything feel much better from COH.

All your problem is from fingerprint bug.

If you are in COH update, try disable fingerprint until you update to COI or COJ stock.

I'm on COJ stock update with fingerprint enabled.

No more random lag, random hot boot & no more random app killing.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozkaya:
I'm still testing these, but first impression is that these seem to work, thanks. DHA only allowed about 4 active apps, now I can keep 7 or 8 apps in RAM and multitasking is much better. For people who want to give this one a shot, comment out all DHA lines in your build.prop if added by a Custom ROM, kernel etc and activate FHA instead.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapek666:
The SPCM background services killer was added in 5.1.1. If the rest improves memory performances, I would guess so but I can't confirm as I didn't try with older firmwares.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedicemaster:
can't you just use settings -> battery -> app optimization to edit the whitelist and disable smart manager?

just choose to never optimize certain apps and they should work normally again.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapek666:
I also thought it would do that but it doesn't. Even if you put an app to "never optimize" its services will be killed eventually.

Exactly, it seems as if it gets even worse after putting apps on the "never optimise list".

For everyone that has forgot or just never new back in 2011 sprint and google worked together to put google voice and sprint together research for more info then Google pushed more into it with hangouts and hangout dailer search for more information with these 3 you can make and receive calls via Internet voip/volte/Voight while still surfing the Web I can confirm this works great but I can also confirm it can be hard to set up Google is your friend here

Ps our note 5 comes with hangouts pretty installed you would only need to download

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] DarkManX4lf:
Keep in mind that when you use Google voice for calls you are using data. So if your data signal is crap then good luck with hearing the other person or them hearing you. On top of that good luck with browsing since the call will eat up some of your bandwith.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] elcidroyale:
No luck needed. It works fine. Even with low signal of data, calls work fine. I'm not watching a movie on netflix while on a call. Just waiting for an important email, checking the web quickly for directions; quick glance browsing. No need for all that bandwidth.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] zzEvilGeniuszz:
I got an old G900T from a friend and called T-Mobile to unlock the sim so I can use the phone with another carrier. They called my friend to ask if it was okay and they said yes so they were going to provide me with the unlock code that would be emailed to me. The woman on the phone told me my friend still owed money on it so they could only issue me a temporary 30 day unlock and then after the 30 days it would be locked again until the phone is paid off. Once paid off I would be given a code that would unlock it permanently.

My question is, if I root and flash this phone with a custom rom will that prevent T-Mobile from locking it again after the 30 days? Or will they still be able to lock it after the 30 days has ended?

We write a music player app. The info on Stagefright 2:

https://blog.zimperium.com/zimperiu...me-new-vulnerability-processing-mp3mp4-media/

says that third party music players that use Android's standard media playing libraries are vulnerable. OS patches are on their way but we'd like to do our bit, we support down to 2.1.

But dev-level details on the exploit seem to be hard to find right now.

It's something to do with the metadata of the file, is that just id3 tags? If so it would be relatively simple to edit the file to sanitise them before passing them to MediaPlayer, maybe raising an error if the file can't be written to. Might have to use a third-party library to do that rather than Android's parser which might trigger the exploit.

It mentions 'Android previewing the file' - what does 'previewing' mean? Is that the browser calling MediaPlayer.setDataSource() or MediaPlayer.prepare()?

It also mentions 'libutils' - is that MediaPlayer accessing libutils or does the app need to access libutils in some other way? I'm guessing it's not only MediaCodecInfo and friends as they are API 16+.
