[Samsung Gear VR] clonednull:
As you already have the compatible mobile, if you get one for 100$ (as it is sold now at this price) i would recommend it!

It is not finished enough to call it consumer ready for the mainstream but its definitely one of the best VR experiences up to date. :cyclops:
[Samsung Gear VR] burntrat:
The 'not finished enough' part is stopping me from buying it right now. I know it has some flaws, but wouldn't some company, maybe not samsung, fix those issues in the future? I'm just afraid I'll drop $100 for the Gear VR then a way better vr headset comes out later from someone else.
[Samsung Gear VR] Haints:
It works just fine on my Verizon phone. However ... I'm not at all happy with the image quality overall. See separate thread. I think I'm going to sell it and just wait for the Rift.
[Samsung Gear VR] clonednull:
Please don't expect too much improvement in image quality when switching to the Rift. The Rift will have a lower (or nearly equal) resolution as the current Gear VR. The lenses will be better but this will not improve the pixel size or density. What the Rift will improve are the overall possible graphic richness as it is run on a pc with a GPU that outperforms any mobile system.

You will have to wait for next generation HMDs to get a better image quality.
[Samsung Gear VR] burntrat:
If this was more polished, I probably would've bought it without hesitation. Feels like I should wait for an 8k display phone or something before fully going into VR. Also, I'm not too sure if I'll stay with my Note 4 now. Playing with the Note 5 now and I feel tempted to switch. Thanks for your help guys.
[SuperSU] rynevsn:
Hello all,

I have recently been asked to use email on my work phone (instead of my preferred web-app option). My device (S4 i9505 running a Cyanogenmod 12.1 nightly) was/is rooted but after the (standard) encryption process the phone was stuck on a black screen/bootloop/problem.

This was resolved by re-flashing the CM 12.1 rom using TWRP which booted and the device was encrypted with my work email on the phone. SuperSU is installed but the binary needs to be updated and the phone is saying it's not rooted when checking the root using Root Checker.

I want to reinstall/reinstate SuperSU, but I am wondering if this will freeze the phone again, as it is encrypted. What are the known problems with rooted phones/SuperSU and encryption?

Cheers
[SuperSU] rynevsn:
Solved

Hi all,

Solved it by simply flashing the latest SuperSU zip via TWRP in recovery. It seems that you can use a rooted phone with encryption enabled. However, when I encrypted it (via the standard way) it was stuck in some kind of bootloop problem where the screen was black but the phone was on. To solve this, I presume the problem was with SuperSU. I would first make a backup of your ROM before encrypting then I would temporarily disable SuperSU, or uninstall it, then encrypt the device. Afterwards re-enable or re-flash SuperSU from recovery. If you do get a boot problem, you can flash a ROM or recover your old one and start again.

My steps were: encrytp, then got the boot problem so I flashed a new CM 12.1 nightly. Afterwhich the phone booted normally and the phone was encrypted, but "not" rooted. I then downloaded the latest SuperSU zip and flashed it from the recovery leaving me with an encrypted, rooted phone.

By the way, encryption is annoying as you must enter a pin everytime you use the phone, after it is locked. My S4 only lets you use a pin, no pattern allowed. However, it is preferred by employers/IT.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anyadike:
I'm about to receive my third warranty replacement for the numerous problems I had with my Note4. Most of the problems are fixable (camera, GPS, etc), but one problem is bad and I don't see a simple solution.

Something seems to be intermittently stealing the focus from my app (I believe). So, if I'm watching YouTube, it randomly pauses because it thinks I've switched apps. If I'm recording video, it randomly stops, because it thinks I've switched apps. If I'm playing a video game, it pauses while I'm playing until 'I return'. If I go to the app-switcher, sometimes it closes randomly before I select which running app to switch to.

I actually bought a new SD card (64GB wasn't really doing it for me, anymore, anyways) but the problem persists. The phone does seem better behaved before all my apps repopulate (although there's not much to do on the phone before the apps are back), so I suspect it's an app, but I haven't heard anything about this sort of problem on any website or forum.

Lastly, the problem may have started around the time of the StageFright patch in August, but a lot of apps also updated around that time.

I'm stock 5.0.1 without root (maybe in the future), although I always disable T-Mobile bloatware like DT_Ignite. Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anyadike:
Thanks - And sorry for the late reply (I don't remember getting a notification about a reply). I'll try your suggestion if the problem comes back.

It appears to be a problem with the Samsung Techwin app for their video cameras. For others, the app would just randomly pop-up during phone use, making the problem easier to diagnose. For me, it would just steal focus.

I uninstalled the app & things are back to normal.

[LG G Flex 2] sslmm:
Hi there!

I've bought a Lg G flex 2 for a good price to replace my faulty nexus 5. On my old phone i've had used a mod that enabled stereo sound using the earpiece as a left speaker and my main speaker as the right one and loved that!

After searching on the internet i found out that that mod was enabled on various phone models but not on flex 2 :(

So, i'm asking if anyone could try to make this mod on this phone, since i don't know how to do it ( just know that i have to replace the mixer_paths.xml file).

Thanks in advance :)

This mod enables the earpiece as a left speaker and the loudspeaker as a right speaker so that you can listen to stereo sound instead of mono sound with your flex.

It didn't work in my device {Rooted H955 v 15c}, even LG's music player stopped working, just for your info, i had to go back to stock xml file.

[LG G Flex 2] Thompson111:
Can you record video how is playing?
[LG G Flex 2] tehargonaut:
Is there any way to adjust the balance? The speaker on the back is much louder than the front so it sounds off

Nevermind, i figured it out, if anyone else has this problem open your edited mixer path, find this:

<!-- Start LGE Mono Speaker -->

<path name="speaker">

slightly under that is

<ctl name="RX7 Digital Volume" value="79" />

lowering this number makes the left side louder - raising this number makes the right side louder

i found 72-73 gives the best balance depending on your preference
[LG G Flex 2] sslmm:
Yes, you have to edit the mixer_paths.xml file. Go to the " <path name="speaker">" and search for the lines :

<ctl name="RX7 Digital Volume" value="79" />

<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="88" />

The "rx7" is the volume of the louspeaker and the "rx1" is the volume of the earspeaker, so you just have to change thoses values at will ;)

Edit: Also, as francescrm said, you have to change permissions to the file like that.
[LG G Flex 2] tehargonaut:
Lol, just spent the last hour figuring this out for myself with trial and error and edited my post literally like a minute before you posted this

btw, the earspeaker gets a bit distorted at max normal volume, guessing that theres not an option to tweak that a bit eh? ;)
[LG G Flex 2] sslmm:
Great timming lol.

Btw, the original volume for louspeaker is "84"

After searching about this mod on the G3 i found other lines on that mod to enable High Pass filters e Low pass filters to reduce the distortion on the earpiece but tried it and didn't saw any diference.

I will attach that file from g3 mod if you guys want to try those lines for yourselfs and post your experiences ;)
[LG G Flex 2] tehargonaut:
do you know exactly which lines were edited to enable the filters? i don't want to put the g3 xml on my flex :P
[LG G Flex 2] sslmm:
And you should not put a xml file from a diferent phone model on your phone. I just posted that file for reference :mad: ;)

I think one of the lines is this :

<ctl name="RX3 HPF cut off" value="MIN_3DB_150Hz" />

It would be usefull if theres was somethin on the internet explaining the possibilities of modding this file. If anyone knows anything like that please share :)

Cool. Worked fine for me (on H950PR). I copied OP's entire 'LGE Mono Speaker' entry and replaced it in my mixer_paths.xml file, rebooted and had stereo sound. Thank you.

Even at max volume, distortion was acceptable. I added the low cut filter line, rebooted, but did not notice any difference.

Hello,

I use Redmi 4GB that comes with MIUI 5 SG, then I update it to JHBMIBF19.0.

I'm thinking to update it to MIUI 7 5.8.10 developer rom.

I wonder if it safe to upgrade from MIUI 5 to MIUI 7 on my Redmi 4GB.

Cause I'm afraid that my Redmi 4GB will

Ran out of memory. Currently, my Redmi 4GB already consume 90% of internal memory, and my applications isn't consume that much as I check on App2SD. Since I update to JHBMIBF19.0, it used 90% of internal memory instead of 20% when on MIUI 5 SG.

Slows down / lag. My current MIUI 5 had some lag when launching Instagram or BBM, it can took very long and sometimes not responding.

Some application may break. Some said that after updating, their google play didn't work, and many apps didn't work.

Some hardware may break. Some said that after updating, bluetooth, wifi, or many hardware wont work.

If I backup all my app data to my PC with MI Phone suite, can I get back once I update to MIUI 7 ?

So, anyone who updated their Redmi 4GB to MIUI 7, is safe at all ? no problem / bug ?

And how to do the update, should I follow Xiaomi's flashing guide that use Updater > Select Installation file ? or Reboot to recovery mode then Wipe / reset and then install update.zip?

thanks.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demothon:
Hello people,

I have a bit of a noob question I guess. It's more about on how the Android (guessing any of it) is structured.

If we take a look into the different threads we find a number of versions of ROMs and stuff. But we also find different versions of Kernels.

My question is for example, if switching from lets say stock Android to a custom ROM( eg. Cyanogenmod, AOSP, etc) will it also change the Kernel or is the Kernel separate. Then again there is the question if any Kernel is compatible with any ROM.

I guess the more appropriate question is, does every ROM come with its own Kernel?

This is more just to have a clearer understanding of how this OS is working. Thanks!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farunkel:
Many of my contacts contain just one phone number, their mobile. Then WhatsApp identifies them and adds its own contact. These two contacts are merged and when viewing the contact I see only one number, as expected. However, apparently internally the G3 lists the contact as having 2 duplicate numbers. This confuses apps that try to automatically choose a default number to call (specifically, Conigri contacts widget). I can also see this in the quick contact popup. The contact shows with two entries of the same number. I can't work around this by choosing one of these as the default, because the contact details show just a single number. I tried to remove the number, which initially works as the WhatsApp number becomes the default, but then WhatsApp syncs, sees the contact no longer has a number and deletes its contact entry leaving me with a contact with no number.

Note that I previously had a Galaxy S5 and had no such problem there (so it is not a basic Android problem I guess).

I tried googling for the issue, but couldn't find it. How can I solve this?
