[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaiser_Y:
Hey guys!

So, here's what happened, step by step

I was on a BlissPop 5.1.1, but I wanted to install xposed. I hadn't any truly funcional recovery, only the built-in CM recovery. So I was trying to install one.

I found and .img file of twrp, then I flashed it thru flashtool, as the guides told me. But than I got stuck on twrp and, as I didn't expected it, I didn't made a backup. In another place, I found a guy saying that it was an issue that happens when you lose the misc.img file, and you can skip the 'flashing the ROM all over again' step just by flashing this file.

Then I downloaded it and my device softbricked. And then I look to do the same stuff that we always do when the phone got softbricked: install the stock firmware all over again.

I know I did a lot of mistakes and complicated the whole thing, but here was when something that I didn't know how to fix appeared:

I put it on flash mode, green light, but it just can't flash the tft file. The device keeps connecting/disconnecting over and over and when it finally starts to flash, I got the message "error in the processHeader: 5 - access denied" and I can't find a solution anywhere, not anyone with the same issue, nothing.

Right now I'm installing the PC companion to check if it is a driver problem, but I need to hear from you guys some advice to fix this.

Thanks a lot

I don't want to call in. How would I get my msl? Also I'm on stock, no root.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] duongdn:
Online with Sprint Chat is how I've gotten mine on my Note 2, 3, 4, and now 5. Just tell them you develop apps and need it to test your app with.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] elcidroyale:
Also got mine through chat. I just asked for it and didn't provide a reason. They gave it to me no questions asked.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] kosmo42o:
You can also try to go online to sprint and activate an older phone for 20 min then reactivate your note 5 again and it should give you programming code for manual programming if needed that would be your msl. But if it shows 000000 then you have to call and ask for it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] broncop3t3:
Chat worked for me. It was quick and painless.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] bosswick:
Call in, chat, or in store. This day and age, they don't care about giving out your MSL. Other than that, there's no way - or at least that I know of.

PS. Don't call a store. We cannot look up account information over the phone.

If you root ... You can use galaxy tools 3.1.8 by idoneapps but u will have to search high and low for the app

My phone would get warm (not warm enough to be concerned about), but i was still looking for ways to make the phone even cooler. i came across an app that my friend had used called "cooler master". while skeptical at first, i tried it out.

phone was an average of 35-37 degrees Celsius with mild usage, and 40-42 degrees Celsius while using it on the fast charger. at this moment, my phone is running at 27 degrees celsius, with mild usage. got up to 35 degrees on the fast charger.

seems to be working great so far. phone is cool to touch like it's been off all day

[X Style (Pure) Themes and Apps] playerone_:
Cooler master is good, but with root access its even better. I prefer greenify because it keeps apps in a sleep (hibernate) state which seems to be very ram friendly in every device I've used it on. Both apps do well, and both have added features with root access. I also believe greenify has an xposed module for added functionality.
[X Style (Pure) Themes and Apps] Faruko:
Have you done a benchmark with it ? It reduces CPU usage but maybe also downclock it ?

Does it run as fast ?

help needed

my digitizer appears to be on the way out, the touch screen alignment keeps shifting for no good reason, it used to do it only when i rotated the screen but now it even happens when i keep it in portrait only.

Also, right after i turn the uni on the touch screen won`t work for atleast a couple the seconds, no clicking noise and no indication i am touching it all.

The problem is getting worse with time. :(

Any thoughts/advice will be much appreciated. :confused:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] shlomki:
same for me.

doesnt happen when i switch from portrait to landscape, but the alignment keeps getting messed up.

i'm thinking of opening the screen part, maybe i'll tighten the lcd and screws inside or something...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] davieshyland:
great..... do that now, and get back to me right away ....:D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] shlomki:
i did it just now. tightend screws, made the connectors sit properly, cleaned the edges of the screen a bit...

lets hope it will make a difference.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] pasan:
Bump. Any joy?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] davieshyland:
i gave in and ordered a new touch screen from ebay, £11 inc p&p, can`t argue with that.....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] davieshyland:
screen not arrived yet..... but the problems i was having seem to have gone away ?.:confused:

i`ve just flashed a different ROM, (although it was one i`d flashed before), and the problems i was having are gone, very weird.:confused:

this wasn`t the first time i`d re-flashed since the problem came up, and i`ve re-loaded all the same software i had when i was getting digitizer drift.

i will probably re-place the screen (when it comes :rolleyes: ) anyway, but.....lets hear it for faults that fix them-selves.:D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] shlomki:
Seems so!!

im on the 10th day without ANY problems! screen alignment is accurate and STAYS that way!

im happy so far. maybe you should try it also...
[General Questions and Answers] xelra:
I have a Microsoft Mobile Wedge keyboard. I've connected it to my Nexus 9 and after setting the language in the settings it works almost perfectly. Almost!

There are 4 keys on it that don't work, because they're multi-keycode keys. They're the "magnifier glass"-key, the "3 dots on a ring"-key, the "black rectangle intersecting with rectangle border"-key and the "gears/settings"-key.

So far I've found out with

getevent -lt /dev/input/event4

that the Linux keycodes they send are

KEY_LEFTSHIFT
KEY_LEFTMETA
KEY_F21

KEY_LEFTALT
KEY_LEFTMETA
KEY_F21

KEY_LEFTCTRL
KEY_LEFTMETA
KEY_F21

KEY_LEFTMETA
KEY_F21

I've created the 2 files

/system/usr/keylayout/Vendor_045e_Product_0790.kl
/system/usr/keychars/Vendor_045e_Product_0790.kcm

and made sure with

dumpsys input

that they're used.

I tried to enable the F21 in the layout first, but that didn't work because there's no Android keycode for F21. So I bound it to INSERT instead, because it's an unused key.

Then I went into the character map and tried making an INSERT key (which is actually F21) and apply the right modifiers to it.

key INSERT {
base: 'a'
lmeta: 'A'
}

The above being for the key that only had 2 keycodes. Unfortunatley this didn't work. Nothing happened. So now I'm here to pick your brain.

Does anyone know how to do multi-keycode keys?

Thank you very much in advance.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mikek753:
hi,

Can 6P output video over USB-C?

Can generic USB C-type cable to HDMI be used?

Any other specific for 6P adapter can be used for HDMI wired output?

No, I don't need / want chromecast or miracast or etc wi-fi streaming.

thanks.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] heleos:
6p does not output hdmi
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rubi76:
Why do they sell an hdmi adapter on the Google store then?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] seezar:
For the Pixel chromebook.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] CYoung234:
The 6P supports WiFi Direct, so I would suggest you go that route if at all possible. You may need to get a Miracast dongle for your flat panel display of projector.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mikek753:
I need HDMI for my car Appradio HU

I thought that if 6P has type-C than it will have hdmi over it ... or hope it'll have it
[Nexus 6P Accessories] heleos:
During the reddit AMA they said it would not output hdmi. I also didn't think about this when ordering (i have an appradio hu as well)
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Smallsmx3:
I think because it's still USB 2.0 that it can't output via HDMI. On another note don't waste your time with a miracast dongle. I'm pretty sure Google dropped support for that to exclusively use Chromecast. IMHO I feel it's leaps and bounds better than miracast anyway and you can still mirror your phone
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mikek753:
HDMI works just fine over USB2, it's MHL or SlimPort that extracts video/audio from phone microUSB port. I don't know details how it works, but that I use for my S3 with MHL adapter to feed HDMI input.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] CYoung234:
The specs say specifically WiFi Direct, which is what Miracast uses as the transport, so Miracast should work. It works well with my Nexus 7, and the Nexus 4, 5 and 10 work as well. The Motorola Nexus 6 did not support WiFi Direct. If Chromecast supports mirroring to the USB port of a flat panel or projector to display the output of the phone or tablet screen for PowerPoint, AutoCAD, etc, then great. At least in the past, that was not the case.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 640k:
thats... not how chromecast works. receiving device needs something (chromecast, roku, fire stick) that supports the chromecast protocol (cast method). from there, you can mirror (cast) your device screen or chrome tab.

as far as using a miracast dongle goes, i believe it's the same principle as chromecast. you won't get display through the USB port of your device. the dongle has to connect through some video throughput (usually HDMI). most (if not all) display-only devices do not have the capability to accept display through a USB port.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] omf05:
I don't understand why it doesn't support hdmi output. The s6 doesn't either. I don't want use chromecast because i use my unlimited data plan to stream movies. That's only thing i'm jelly of the iphone right now.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 640k:
what does having UDP and steaming movies have to do with CC? are you saying you want to steam movies from your phone to your device? there are apps that do this, including ES File Manager. if you're traveling, you'll need two devices to set up the CC to use your hotspot, but short of that, CC should work great for your needs.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mikek753:
everyone has different use case

for me I need that phone output video over HDMI input of my car radio (Appradio)

and I'd like to have it over cable

in my case streaming over wi-fi comes with annoying latency - that's delay between car touchscreen action and video display as reaction

for me it isn't about movie streaming, but GPS and other car related apps
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pig Vomit:
This.

I thought I could live without root and ARUnchained so that Android Pay would work easily, and just get by with screen mirroring without touch interface on the head unit. Since Marshmallow, I haven't rooted and I've just been mirroring my N5 through SlimPort. I don't know that I can get by like this after being so used to full interface. And I imagine that the lag on Chromecast would be highly annoying. I'm quite disappointed there is no HDMI output on 6P, but I'm getting it anyway.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] CYoung234:
Oops, you are right. I said USB, but meant HDMI. For my Actiontec dongle, you use the USB port to power it, but the HDMI port for the video / audio.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] MrKal_El:
I'll be honest... I see almost no lag Casting my N5 screen of a 1080p Youtube clip to Chromecast 2.

It actually surprised the hell out of me that the quality of the cast was much better than choosing the same video through the YouTube app for Chromecast
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Aircraft800:
Crap! What do we do now? I also use ARUnchained with my AppRadio 3. Just got my 6P today.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 400ixl:
I use the 6P via miracast to my AppRadio and the lag is non existant. The Nexus 5 struggled a bit but the 6P doesn't. This is using a Microsoft Wireless adapter.

Assuming you have supported the ARU developer, then join the Alpha group and he has a version that automates the connection process for Miracast / Chromecast. I have also posted in the ARUR thread how to get the screen to dim down to nothing.

---------- Post added at 03:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 PM ----------

Mainly because TV technology has moved on and the technology to stream is in most of those now. Very few phones will support MHL or Slimport going forwards, if any at all within a year.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ea1958:
I would not have bought the Nexus 6P if I'd known that it did not support HDMI out. No doubt about it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RHChan84:
I bought a HDMI cable for my LG G3 and used it quite a bit but stopped using it after 5 months. I loved it especially in hotels since Chromecast doesn't connect to hotel WiFi. But then I got an iPad and I started to use that to hook up to the TV to free up my phone to be used.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rufflez2010:
I bought a combo router/sdcard reader/USB stick reader/battery pack for ~$30 to use my Chromecast at hotels. You use the router to connect to the hotel WiFi and your phone and Chromecast. You can also use it as a portable drive with the app. It tops out at ~20mb/s but that's plenty fast since most hotel WiFi doesn't even go that fast.

It's a Kingston MobileLite. Pretty good for the price.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 640k:
mobile hotspot solves this (provided you can get service). you only need to set the CC up once.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rufflez2010:
You still need a second device... At least you did last time I tried it. Fortunately I had my tablet so I was able to control the Chromecast from that.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dwswager:
This is actually very ingenious, but at the end of the day, a very RUBE GOLDBERG type scenario when compared to connecting the phone directly to the TV with a wire. Been doing that for 4 years and it works perfectly with every TV, in every location!

Let's say you want to present a couple slides at a board meeting. You can simply plug the wire in or tell them to wait while you get your Rube Goldberg solution going. And on a military post, you can't because you aren't allowed to go over the air! Google is channeling Steve Jobs now..."If Steve wanted you to be able to do that, he would have put it in there!"

Other than the reversibility factor, Google wasted every benefit of the Type C connector.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mikek753:
this setup will not work for me in my car

another thing is gps app with miracast / chromecast lag is no go for me - I'd like to see in realtime
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 400ixl:
I don't get lag when using miracast for gps apps to my Appradio. Its as fast as slimport was on my N5. Miracast on the N5 was poor though as it didn't have the grunt.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ea1958:
Nexus 6P the cheapest phone yet

I migrated from an LG G2 to Nexus 6P and lost HDMI functionality. WT-YOU-KNOW-WHAT?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 400ixl:
Read back up through this thread. 6P does not support slimport like the G2. Its Chromecast by default or Miracast with some modifications.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] indianajonze:
outstanding post buddy. you keep up the good work
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ea1958:
ScreenBeam Mini2 & Nexus 6P

If any one tries this please advise if it will mirror everything on the Nexus 6P.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ea1958:
Thank you, indianajonze.?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 400ixl:
Tries what? I have already said Miracast works with the mods described and mirrors the full screen. Chromecast works as it should.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ea1958:
The title of my post said "ScreenBeam Mini 2 & Nexus 6P." So, that is what. Chromecast is quite servicable at home. I don't see your workarounds, only that you say that they exist. I didn't buy this phone to start into workarounds.

Again (for travel reasons), if anyone tries the 6P with Screenbeam Mini 2, please let us know how it works.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] crash822:
Only need a second device the first time you set up chromecast. I'm have an appradio 3 HU and use aru reloaded from play store, and a chrome cast. Install chromecast update wifi, then using a secon device have it connect to your phone after you enable wifi tethering on your nexus 6p. Once chromecast is set to use your hotspot from your phone, you'll be able to cast to it with no other devices.

It still has some bugs though, sometimes my chromecast doesn't display in my list of devices I'm able to cast to.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 400ixl:
Screenbeam mini 2 is a miracast device mainly used by Samsung owners. You will need to modify your build.prop file to enable miracast. Screenbeam works with Marshmallow so should work fine. I have used the Microsoft wireless adapted.

So, if you don't want to modify anything, then no (chromecast is your only option), if you do then yes.

Chromecast needs an Internet connection every start up, miracast doesn't.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ea1958:
Thank you. That's what i needed to know. I have put my 6P up for sale on mercadolibre (mexico). I loved everyting else about it, but the irritation over no HDMI via USB-C persists, so it has got to go. Will get G3 which was the logical progression for me to begin with.

Suerte.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 400ixl:
Hdmi physical connections are a thing of the past now. Future phones won't have it so you may as well make the leap now.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ea1958:
True, too. For some reason (the surprise factor, I think) it 'got me.' In all the talk about USB-C... well, they could have left off the headphone jack and I would have been less spun (that function is well served by Bluetooth).

And would you believe that I just had someone on the Amazon Screenbeam Mini 2 Q&A page tell me in no uncertain terms (impuning my average tech literacy) that that item does work with Nexus 6P (rotfl).

http://www.amazon.com/anyone-confus...Mx24RSWLBPRWA2X&cdSort=oldest#Mx24RSWLBPRWA2X
[Nexus 6P Accessories] crash822:
If you go the miracast route tell us how it goes. I currently have a chromecast plugged into my radio but I"m afraid of when the chromecast needs to update, it'll suck up my limited data. I already ran into that problem when I used my phone hotspot right away instead of making sure it was up to date on my home wifi after I first bought the chromecast.

I tested it with my TV which supports miracast and it had about a 0.75 second delay for miracast. I think the chromecast is slightly faster.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ea1958:
It's the bleeding edge of technology. A hateful little thing (Nexus 6P). I am going back to G3; give Google more time to flesh out their gadgetry. Chromecast is a redundancy from the get-go (a complete cash-du-jour move on the part of Google). I already have all that Chromecast offers on my Smartphone, and so just need to get it from my phone direct to TV.

PS-search 'broadfork' in the App Store for my Math Time! App:)
[Nexus 6P Accessories] bodieism:
Do you happen to use a shell command to start mirroring via Tasker? On my Note 4 I had everything completely automated so that I didn't even have to take my phone out my pocket. I'd like to do the same on my 6P if possible. It's already setup to connect to wireless devices other than chrome cast.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] sapphirecoupe:
How are you guys getting the nexus to pair Bluetooth with your appradio? My nexus keeps saying invalid pin...
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 400ixl:
I don't as Appradio Unchained Reloaded app in alpha form has the automation built in. No need to take it out of my pocket either. I don't believe there is a command to launch casting to a specific device. Can be done with gestures though.

---------- Post added at 09:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 PM ----------

Just paired it as normal. PIN was fine.

[MENTION=324146]400ixl[/MENTION]. Using the miracast adapter..how can you get touch inputs to the phone then? I also have the 6p and a 4100nex. Thanks
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 400ixl:
For Appradio you use the appradio unchained application from the play store.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Banggugyangu:
You realize that Chromecast is EXACTLY that.... it's a method for taking what is on your smartphone and putting it on a dumb display device. It's not anything beyond that. It costs about the same as a good quality HDMI cable (which is important not just because of data transmission, but for preventing damage to ports on devices). It's a glorified wireless HDMI device for $35. I haven't used chromecast 2 personally, but I know the device itself is faster than my chromecast 1. On Chromecast 1, there's approximately 400 ms of lag on mirroring across 2 rooms with walls in between the router and both the chromecast and source device. That's less than half a second. It's "noticeable" as anything over 200 ms is technically noticeable by the human eye, but for anything other than gaming, should not affect the real-life use whatsoever. For the person who made a comment about "GPS use in real-time in the car", bluetooth connections typically have more than 400 ms delay unless you have a headunit that costs more than $1500 and actually splurged on a high performance bluetooth chip/radio/antenna. Appradio 2 and 3 do accept their audio over the HDMI connection, however, so you're not introducing the latency to the audio, but using ARU, your touch screen control is done via bluetooth as far as I am aware, and the latency would be added to that. Regardless, using a chromecast 2 should alleviate any of this, because the device is faster and offers better performance. So many people are complaining about the removal of something that, at this point, are not necessary.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dlads:
Although I haven't tested it, you could try using the USB type c to standard USB, then female to female USB, then USB to micro then the HDMI / MHL connector..

There will almost certainly be a shorter way of doing that but cable to cable that would fit..whether it would work or not I'm not sure.

I've been told it won't, give it a whirl if you have the cables, see how it goes. I think its a bit crap if there are no options for HDMI out.
