[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
I got a new phone because my iphone 5 got stolen and it was jailbroken and when I got my samsung device I decided I want to root it. Upon research and countless hours on how to root my phone I got nothing. I guess i'm new when it comes to rooting and i'm trying my best to learn as much as possible.

Anyways, I've tried Kingo Root and it keeps failing, i've tried King root (2 different applications of king root) When I open the app it says Root Acess is unavailable and on the bottom of the app it says Root strategy available, just try it and there is a button asking to try to root. And then it goes to 16% then goes up slowly and then it jut says root failed no strategy retry. Sometimes the app closes out and my homescreen is all black.

I've heard of odin but I've never tried it, if anybody could help me out on rooting my device that would be great.

Model Number: SAMSUNG-SM-G900A

Running android 5.0

The baseband version is G990AUCU4BOF3

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] luisortizdavis:
Hi,

I have been trying all day to find a plain and simple calculator. Something like gCalc (link below) but with bigger buttons so one can use it with the fingers. I even tried to make a skin for gCalc but it's got some limitations. I don't want nothing more than the basic numbers and these symbols: "+" , "-" , "÷" , "×" and ".".

There are lots of calculators out there, free and commercial but I think that they all waste a lot of space that could be used to make finger-friendly buttons. Also many are scientific calculators which I don't need.

I know almost nothing about programming so doing one from scratch is out of the question for me but if someone knows about a good one and could point it out I would be very grateful. Here is the skin I was trying to make for gCalc.

http://www.smartphone-freeware.com/download-gcalc-v1-0.html
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Goldy:
Hey, I thought that exact same thing, i started creating one, but never finished it, I will go back to it tonight and see how far i can get.

its real ugly but the buttons are evenly sized filling all but a small number display along the top of the screen.

what shape is your screen you want to use it on?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] bamse:
This one is GOOD!

http://www.omegaone.com/calc/ppc/default.htm

I believe there was a "lite" version given away for free by Microsoft when joining some online community for WindowsMobile. Can't find it anymore though.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Goldy:
Here it is, its really simple. and currently only working in portrait mode, will update that very soon
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] kltye:
I too have written a calculator that's large and finger friendly. It's got a black theme to go with the black themes that is all the rage these days ;) Works in both portrait and landscape. Requires .NET 2.0 CF because I'm a lazy guy who doesn't want to code in C++ :P
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] luisortizdavis:

Thank you guys! These are perfect. I installed both and will be testing them at work. Both are good and simple. My screen is 240 x 320 and I'd like to use it on portrait mostly. Both of yours work on portrait actually. If you want to get creative you could work on the skins. Making the buttons look raised would be nice. Just a suggestion.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Leo G:
So yesterday I had a notification on my phone that said "Towelroot - remove this program immediately"

Since this program was downloaded and installed without the knowledge of the Google Play store, how does it know that my phone has the program in it. And it's not really an active program. It's a use it once type program, to my understanding.

So, does this mean that Google is snooping though my phone looking at everything I have installed and reporting it back to the mothership? Where else is it snooping?

And mostly, how can I prevent this.

If your phone is already rooted, why do you still have towel root there...you can uninstall it..it won't affect root status

Hello everyone

I'm using a Huawei PL-TE10 (Chinese version), and my colleague has a Mate 7. The MTUs of both wlan0 and rmnet0 are always 1400. Behind the same router, all other laptops and phones have a normal MTU of 1500. I'm also very surprised that it seems nobody else noticed this according to Google searching? Is that normal? I'm also very curious if any of you in countries other than China has this issue?

BTW, the issue exists with both 4.4.2 and newly released 5.1.1.

Thanks for any input regarding this.

Best Regards

I live in Poland and my H60-L02 has its MTU at 1400 as well. I've also checked it on a Jiayu S3 where it was at 1500 so it seems you're right about other devices using 1500. I have no idea why Huawei would have it at 1400 in its services.

Why you wanna use DOWNLOAD?

From 4.4 to 5.1 you want to use FIRMWARE UPGRADE with SP Flashtool.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] el_nene_kpy:
If you want to update system from 4.4 to 5.1, you will use firmware upgrade option in SP Tool but need to put phone in DOWNLOAD MODE. This is done with many Android phone brands (LG, Samsung, ...).

Thank you for your response. I got download mode finally. I only need to connect usb without battery and then put battery in. Many tutorials said to put battery first and then connect usb.

Close it! :)
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] MadaliNec:
The single way my phone connects is if I keep volume down pressed longer. Even if it appears to be connected in SPFlash, still keep volume down pressed until the first FORMAT action in SP. Also, change the usb hub and the usb cable you are using. Sometimes it helps (in mine it did)

[Nexus 7 Android Development] everesee:
Thanks! I'm waiting for your release :)

Camera, NFC and OTG is not important for me right now.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Ziyan:
For NFC, we need to revert this commit - adding it to the device tree is way too problematic, and this shouldn't cause problems for other devices anyways....

For SELinux on 3.1, we need these commits, and we need to remove three recovery-related neverallowed rules from the device tree (not a huge deal really) - these commits are already included in my 3.4 kernel (thanks to the android-3.4 merge), but it's not ready to be shipped... posting a screenshot of M running with 3.4 was a mistake.

For EGL, I use this workaround, which fixes that particular problem without modifying the system libraries - it would be really nice if you knew another, nicer solution, also without modifying the system libraries :)

Right now, GPS, camera and audio is broken (thought audio might be broken because of camera - I experienced similar symptoms while working on 3.4).
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Kevinjoa:
The NFC propably needs the NXP NFC stack which had been dsiabled building by google and can be reverted: https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/14956/

My Optimus G needed relocations for the nfc hardware lib, but I think it might be not needed, anyway this is hacky change to make relocations warnings again: https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/14955/
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Motorhead1991:
In hindsight, yeah showcasing 3.4 was jumping the gun a little bit. I just got ahead of myself and wanted to bring hope to people that still use such an "old" device.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Ziyan:
Update: I was able to fix gps in a similar way. Also, it seems like 3.1 + M isn't going to play together (serious memory management issues), so I had to switch back to 3.4 (me and [MENTION=4619263]sheffzor[/MENTION] are working on 3.4 day and night). So, only camera and audio remains :)

[Nexus 7 Android Development] Dadud:
how soon are you guys planning on putting a public build out? im kind of syncing the repo right now, i think. but im a newbie at building so i might not be able to get it built after spending hours on this.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] dolorespark:
[MENTION=3326402]dmitrygr[/MENTION]'s patch is one way to get around some of the compatibility issues. Here are some other ways - in one case, more hack-ish, in the others, more conservative:

OpenSSL (gps, drm) - rather than deal with possible incompatibilities, I took the hackers way out. I pulled libssl and libcrypto from my 5.1.1 build and renamed them libssx and libcryptx, then used my hex editor on the affected binaries to change the names of the libraries they link to. This may be a hack but it's simple (no new code) and ensures compatibility.

SensorManager (on my device, camera and gps) - for the SensorManager constructor and method whose signatures have changed, why mess with using C to emulate C++ when you can just add a few lines of C++ code directly to the file? Note that you don't have to supply a valid packagename for the newly added argument: String16() and String8(), respectively, will work fine.

SensorManager::SensorManager()
: mSensorList(0), mOpPackageName(String16())
{
assertStateLocked();
}

sp<SensorEventQueue> SensorManager::createEventQueue() {
return createEventQueue(String8(), 0);
}

Singleton<SensorManager> (camera and gps for me) - here too, I prefer not to use C to construct C++ objects and the like. I took Singleton.h, renamed it then edited it to provide just what was needed. A companion .cpp file with 3 lines of code instantiates the class and provides the needed symbols. Unlike my GPS fix above (or dmitrygr's patch), this solution doesn't require hex-editing any blobs - it "just works".

If anyone is interested, I can post a patch with these changes (if it weren't 3:42am here, I'd do so now :) ).
[Nexus 7 Android Development] dmitrygr:
my goal was to NOT change android core or platform code and to confine changes to /device and /vendor

messing with core is cheating :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Ziyan:
Yes, the goal is to keep all changes in the device tree and the vendor repo :) in our case, it doesn't look like we need the old SensorManager constuctor.

Don't use a 3.1 kernel, only use the 3.4 from the repo
[Nexus 7 Android Development] dolorespark:
I wish I could afford to be a purist too - I agree that limiting changes to /device and /vendor would be preferable. However, the contexts in which we operate are quite different.

With each new supported version, Google has provided Nexus owners with updated blobs that accommodate changes in the API. Given the relatively limited scope of your patches, I suspect this may be the first time you've had to deal with API incompatibilities on your Nexus.

In contrast, my blobs haven't been updated by the vendor since Android 4.2.1 - and, they are quite dissimilar to the N7 so they can't be replaced with newer Google-built versions. Sadly, the purist 'libdmitry' approach just isn't viable here: too many changes are needed in too many places to avoid patching AOSP. Call this "cheating" if you wish, but 6 API version changes from now you may find yourself adopting a more relaxed attitude toward direct intervention in the code.
