Does anyone know of an application that can be used to send audio picked up phrom the phone microphone in speakerphone mode and send the audio via BT to a headset, and thats all, basically I would like to be able to put my phone downand listen into conversations, I need this so that I can "adjust" my sales techniques.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PianoSam:
Your having a laugh right?

I don't think that the circumstances for your suggested use are particularly edifying. Sitting with a phone in-front of you transmitting the conversation one way to another endpoint is not very honest of you. Perhaps your technique could be improved by extra training, listening honestly to the customer, etc.

It is technically possible to do what your asking but ethically it is not great.

If you were to leave the phone out of view it would be a bigger risk as if discovered your business reputation would be shredded (and I doubt that your management would stand by you).

Have another think...There are many easier ways to improve your technique that carry a lower risk to your future.

Sam.

Alternatively...... iBaby will let you do this by calling another phone, so not quite what you're after, but it works really well.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ww2250:
Ethical issues aside - I don't think it's quite possible since to archieve what the original poster suggests, the phone must be having full-duplex capabilities for it's audio paths.

The idea is that you record something from the MIC and via BT audio gateway, you play it simultaneously. I read that most devices will stop playing when it starts recording.

According to Fox news they have supposively mandated this technology be manditory in all phones sold in the US! I am always suspect of Fox News but they are more likely imho to report this as bunk than true!

The issus I am dealin with is targeting my clients, but its not the clients I need to be able to listen into, its the other salesmen. They've been sabbotaging my efforts and I just need an upper hand. I have a BT headset and it works great, I was wondering if there is an app out there to route the mic to the headset

Hey guys I have a Canadian Note 4 and am unsure how to go about rooting it. I have rooted and installed custom roms on various android devices in the past. This time though I am not seeing N910W-8 around the forums very much. Am I simply not seeing something or is my phone model not supported?

Links to the guides and such is all I really need. Any further information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a ton XDA! :o

[Xposed General] filipsohajek:
Hi,

i recently rooted my phone (Ulefone Be Touch 2) and everything was fine. Then i installed Xposed, installation was OK, no problems but i have some rendering issues of some icons (trash icon on recently opened apps and mobile data in quick settings, see screenshots).

Modules installed :

- GravityBox (disabled it, w/o change)

- Greenify (disabled it, w/o change)

- Fake Wifi (disabled it, w/o change)

- Lucky Patcher (disabled it, w/o change)

Anybody having same issue? I would be really appreciated if somebody can help me.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] kg_jettaIV:
Probably switching to AT&T from Verizon this week and I'll probably be getting the S6.

I'd love to root it but I'd also like to keep Samsung Pay and the fingerprint reader intact if possible.

From what I understand this is only possible if the phone is still on 5.0.2, is that correct?

If so, does anyone know if I'll still get a new in the box phone with 5.0.2 if I walk into AT&T today?

Just want to make sure I don't run into the same mistake with my last phone of getting it too far into its life cycle and not being able to unlock/root.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] timde9:
More specifically you will need to walk out with a device that is on a software version no later than oce2. Of3 and of4 are both unroot able yet both are still 5.0.2. As the of3 update came out close to 5 or 6 months ago you'd be hard pressed to find and s6 on a version before of3 or of4 that hasn't already been sold. Long story short you most likely will not be able to root the phone at all. If you want root you need to buy a g920f or g920i stay away from the g920a. And as for Samsung pay your pretty much out of luck.. Samsung pay requires android 5.1.1 every version of the s6 has anti root feature in the 5.1.1 update so in order to root you'll need a custom kernel will means you will have to trip knox to root... So basically you can't have what you want on the s6 because of knox is tripped Samsung pay will not work.. Your going to have to compromise or your going to have a different phone.. I personally have the g920a from att and I cannot reccomend it at all.. I am still stuck on 5.0.2 just so I can keep riot while everyone else is up to date and running rxposed.. There is little hope for this phone to achieve root on 5.1.1 as it would require an unlocked bootloader which is not something that will conceivably happen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] kg_jettaIV:
Really appreciate the info. Probably going to get the S6 and see what happens. I went over a year without root on my M7 so I think I'll survive. If I can't stand it I'll have a couple weeks to exchange it. Sigh, stupid luck downs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] kg_jettaIV:
So I ended up with a G920A with OF4. I have not applied any OS updates at this point but it seems I am out of luck for rooting, is that correct? If so I think I can live with it. Between mobile hotspot being included now and a combination of Tasker and other apps I think I'll survive. I just have to make sure I'm good with TouchWiz.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orange-man1:
I have the new MacBook with USB-C next to my bed. It would be very convenient to use that charger for 6P at night, but wonder if the 6P will regulate what it needs or if I can cause damage. MacBook charger is 29W but maybe the 6P can handle it.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BiffTirkle:
I'd check the output amperage on the power brick of the macbook and compare that to the nexus 6p charger.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikon8:
It will work fine, the phone controls how many amps it draws, not the other way around. I don't know the specs of the macbook charger so it might not be able to "fast charge" the phone if it can't do 5V 3A.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elnrik:
Only if you start beating your phone with it.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lagittaja:
The 29W Apple USB-C can provide up to either 2A@14.5V for devices that comply with USB PD spec or up to 2.4A@5.2V for everything else.

So yeah, use it to your hearts content, just it won't be quite as fast as the 3A@5V charger.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pudgewack:

Charge Nexus 6P from Macbook

Hi, It might not be relevant but I'm curious can you charge you nexus 6p from your macbook? Macbook have USB Type-C and so is on Nexus 6P. also how fast it charges.. also when you connect to your Macbook can you open system information. and looking at USB info how much it giving power?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chad_Petree:
I still don't get it, if the macbook charger has more "power" why does it charge slower aka it does not support fast charge? :confused:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] honor8:
Tried to charge Huawei Honor 8 with Macbook pro charger (20v/9v/5v). It's alive, but doesn't support fast-charge with default usb-c to usb-c macbook cord.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Citizen_Snips:
A basic explanation would be that the volts are the power that the charger has, the amps are how fast it can transfer that power. As mentioned earlier, the phone decides how much power it draws from the charger. The charger can supply more power, but that doesn't matter since the phone will cap the power it draws from it. So whether you're using a stock 6P charger or one that has 3 times the voltage, the same amount of power is reaching the phone. So with volts being even between both chargers, you look to the amps. The Mac chargers have lower amperage, which means it can't move those volts as fast as the 6P charger can. As such, it's not high enough to support rapid charging.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lysm bre:
Just curious since I'm wondering when development on ROMS and kernels will begin. Thanks!
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
So far after looking at the Nexus binaries page, and the sources for device trees, and kernel repositories found here Google hasn't updated it yet. I imagine they will shortly as more devices are shipped to people.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgummeson:
Don't think so. Once they do it should show up here: https://android.googlesource.com/
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lysm bre:
Ah ok makes sense. Can't wait for development to start!
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
Is this true? This alone, due to the fingerprint wake on back of device, is enough for me to consider this cycle of nexus devices duds. I find it so useful to just wake the phone up quickly with "front" fingerprint or double tap to wake to check notifications while phone is on my work desk without lifting. Of course just my preference.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentdr8:
I think the Nexus devices are supposed to be "reference" devices. None of the previous LG-designed Nexuses had DTTW.

If you wait, I'm sure a custom kernel will come out eventually that will add this functionality in.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
I thought it was an HTC feature... hence why Nexus 9 was the only one to receive it (the feature is newer than Nexus One, which was the previous HTC Nexus).

If you want to wake it to see the notification/lock screen, try knocking it hard enough to trigger the motion sensor. That is an android feature called "ambient display", and it *should* be present on a 5x. It can be enabled in Settings --> Display if it is.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentdr8:
I think LG was the one to bring it to market first, with their G2. It was called Knock On.

Later implemented in S-OFF devices via custom kernels, and dubbed DT2W.

select install

Then manually select drivers

Connect Kindle Fire

Enable USB debugging

Hey guys I'm in need of your help. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Hooked up Fire to PC

Go into Device Manager

Right click Fire - Properties - Update Driver

Browse my computer for driver software

Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer

Show All Devices - Have Disk - Navigate to usb_driver folder and open it

When I hit next this is what I get

Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting toinstall it.

Android Composite ADB Interface

The hash for the file is not present in the specified catalog file. The file is likely corrupt or the victim of tampering.

If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and check the support section for your driver software.

I was just watching your video. non of the ADB drivers show up when i try and pick my own drivers.

The device shows up under Portable devices and it loaded with an MTP driver. The list of other drivers for it to use are other MTP drivers. If i try and tell it to search the folder it just says its not compatible with my system.

I am going to reboot my machine and see if that helps.

Also i do have adb enabled in the settings on the fire tab.

Reboot did not help

Still no luck. I am running out of ideas. I cannot get my device to show up as anything but a portable device with an MTP driver when the fire is booted to the OS. In fastboot mode it does not use an ADB driver. Please help.
[Fire General] thekrakah:
I did this with a 5th gen Fire from the black friday $35 sale.

The problem your describing is the same I had. You 'd be able to get the driver to initially recognize the Fire as an android device in device manager, but once it goes into fastboot mode the driver no longer will recognize it and will show MT65xx or something like that. The wonky fix is to manually in device manager select the driver again, once that is done you can proceed with loading the fastboot img file. Though you'll want to not use the default TWRP install bat file and run the commands manually at each stage. If your stuck in fastbootmode and no commands work hold down the power button till it turns off, and start over.

In the end I found doing the process under windows 10 to be unstable, thus the previous post I made with a link to a VMware linux image with adb tools and fastboot tools already configured. So if your hitting a wall with windows save yourself a headache and do it under linux.

If you want to build your own linux install, grab the netinstall from debian.org i386 = 32bit or amd64 = 64 bit image. I've built VMs for adb tools + fastboot with both so either will work.

Follow the guided installer, once your logged in as root, apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot.

Copy the TWRP_Fire_2.8.7.0.img file to your home directory then follow instructions below.

Network share mount instructions if you want to copy files from a windows share to linux:

mount -t cifs //<ip address>/<share name> /mnt -o vers=2.0,username=<username>,password=<password>

Example:

mount -t cifs //192.168.1.7/g /mnt -o vers=2.0,username=J1mm13,password=rustl3s

TWRP Cyanogenmod instructions:

1- Ensure kindle deveolper mode is on. Settings>device options>serial number

(spam tap till developer menu appears.) >developer options> enable adb.

2- Copy google apps, superSU, and Cyanogenmod zip files to SD card.

3- Make sure you can communicate with your device, command line "adb devices".

If your device serial number is not returned, reconnect usb cable and try again.

4- command line, "adb reboot bootloader".

5- Once in fastboot mode, command line, "fastboot boot TWRP_Fire_2.8.7.0.img".

6- In TWRP menu, Under Backup, make a backup to SD card.

7- In TWRP menu, Under Wipe, Wipe to factory reset

8- In TWRP menu, Under Install, add GoogleApps, SuperSU, and Cyanogenmod zip files then install.

9- Once packages are done installing reboot, and do the needful. Enjoy!
