[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] MindTrix:
Knox is tripped when you flash a custom kernel or a custom recovery, to gain root access you usaully install a custom kernel with root access and then some people install a custom recovery to have the ability to flash custom roms. Some people have been able to unpack and repack the original stock rom for their device and then flash with Odin and not trip Knox, as long as your leave the boot.img and recovery.img intact and keep all the partitions their original size they were successful, this I am going to attempt soon, I too want to do a few edits to the CSC in the cache.img and try and remove some bloat in the system.img and repack and flash to keep my phone stock and unrooted and without bloat and to NOT trip knox.

if Knox is tripped Samsung can void the 1 year service warranty on your device, the knox counter keeps track if the phone has been altered by flashing custom kernels and recoveries, this makes the phone vurnerable to attacks by malicious apps and or users because having root access gives any user and apps permission to anything in the system files. I have tripped knox on many devices and have returned them bricked and never had a problem with Sprint and they replaced my phone, now sending it to Samsung directly I can not answer that but I have read on here in the forums a few have had their phones repaired after Knox being tripped but never ever heard of tripping knox bricking a phone, to brick a phone you have had to flash the wrong firmware and such things alike.

Tripping knox has a few drawbacks as some apps and features will not work, like Private Mode, or Samsung Pay and many more because Knox can not secure your Data anymore since you rooted your phone. So think of Knox as it looks at root, its like you leaving the front door on your house opened all day while your away at work. Knox has a purpose some people don't care about it and some do like me, I like private mode feature. Some root methods have bypassed the security checks by Knox but they keep fixing the vulnerabilities and making it harder and harder to not trip knox, so either you root and trip it or not to root and try other means to make your phone yours.

I'm currently thinking about switching to Marshmallow on my Motorola Nexus 6, but I'm not quite sure what CM12.1 can that Stock Marshmallow isn't capable of. So which features are in CM12.1 that have not yet been implemented in Marshmallow?

I can think of these:

- CM Theme Engine

- Native USB-OTG support (for mounting drives)

(no Xposed on Marshmallow yet)
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
CM Theme Engine is dying, say goodbye to it. Layers is the new kid on the block and stock marshmallow supports it out of the box. Same goes for otg, stock Android has supported it for a while.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Altimas:
This is in my car. I have a pretty high quality headphone cable to connect the phone to my car to listen to music. Every time I plug in the cable the phone it launches google voice search, I can easily dismiss it and everything is fine but it also prevents me from using Google voice search after this.

I'm quite certain it has something to do with the phone thinking I'm plugging in a headset that also has a microphone. The thing is I've used the same setup for both the N4 and N5 with no problems.

Is there a fix for this? Or anyone else experience anything similar? I'll have to try out some new cables.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jahman42:
Me too. I think it is a a headset thing like you said. I would like a solution for this problem as well.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wiltron:
I had this issue myself. This is actually caused by a poor ground on the 3.5mm jack on the stereo system itself which is causing feedback to loop back to the phone. The phone picks up on this and thinks you just pressed a button on a headset, even if there isn't a button to press.

You have a few options:

Stream via Bluetooth if supported, and ditch the cable all together. Expect slightly less than optimal audio quality.

Break open the stereo and run a better ground to a part that isn't inside the stereo. This will void your warranty on the your car stereo.

Buy one of these, and re-wire the 3.5mm jack. This is what I ended up doing (more about this later).

If you end up doing #3, you can just plug it in and go, without any warranty voiding stuff, however it looks ugly having that box thing hang down. Here's what I did to make it look a whole lot better, but also voids warranty.

Separate the female 3.5mm jack from the stereo face plate and the radio hardware.

Disassemble the female 3.5mm headphone jack so that it's no longer flush with the plastic face plate.

Chop off the female end, and chop off the male end on the GLI (the thing I linked above in #3), and solder the two together.

Re-mount the female end of the GLI to the face plate, and tuck away the additional hardware behind the stereo

Alternatively, you can solder the male 3.5mm jack to the GLI and run that as your 3.5mm cable.

The alternative way will give less interference as there's one less connection point, but it's not optimal as the 3.5mm cable may not be long enough.

Use shielded shrink tube on all connection points, and make sure that you wrap it in some EMI Shielding Tape for the best audio throughput. The EMI stuff is optional too.

Wow! Well it looks like I'm In trouble. As my car is a Toyota Prius classic which has a cassette deck. I use a cassette adapter to a female plug adapter to a thin male plug which fits through my case. Two adapter is one too many I would guess.

The posts about rooting this phone doesn't work... After reading a long time I discovered the tutorials were for 4.4.2 when the Ace 4 now have 4.4.4

The recovery:

Following the steps carefully a lot of times... I still having the stock recovery... Why?

The ROMs:

Easy. There insn't any ROM...

My question is... Why haven't anyone posted anything yet about this model?

Other question... Why sometimes I find it as Ace Style?

Thanks.

Greetings from Spain.
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:
Samsung galaxy ace.

An average device to use.

I have used ace nxt.

And it was rooted by flashing zip from custom recovery.

If you have found a cwm or twrp for your self.

Boot device to download mode then connect it to pc and open odin3.

And then press the continew button on device. You will see a comport on odin getting yellow.

Sellect the recovery.img and select start.

It will pass the process around 3 min

And then reboot to recovery to see wether its there or not and flash the root.zip

You can find both cuatom recovery for your model and root.zip on google.

You Can ask me for a detiled guide also.

Hit thanks if this helped

Please help with framework.

alot of developers said it is not possible because it is too much complicated framework and also LG wont release all of their source code so its basically impossible right now

Can we use the Sony xperia camera for lg g3, if we modified it enought to work on lg g3?
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] jimmmysil:
Even if you can, that would not be stock camera... That would be another port like Moto camera, snapdragon camera, lenovo super cam and none of these are even close to stock quality... So what's the point if it's not stock it doesn't matter...
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] jonnyszt:
How about we make a pure stock camera for aosp ROM.
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Jhinta:
alot of people dont get it

the orinal rom is using bin files that are close source and only working for that rom ,

so to port it , you need to port all of it , not just the app( only app is easy) but getting the whole framework to run a hell.

you can port the app , but will have no effect noone will -> because it has no effect

porting all files , is hard its closed sourced

and building a stock app for cam is the same as downloading any other app from market (you don't have the source for all de features you get with the normal rom)

and witch cam work best depends on the user , but i guess that a lot will say stock is better
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] AlwaysLucky:
eh

I wouldn't worry about it, you don't miss out on all that much anyways. Just a few features are not usable through generic camera apps. I personally use the Google Camera app and love how it works with my G3 on AOSP (BlissPop 3.4); though, I do notice a slower focus time due to no laser focusing.
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] jonnyszt:

This thread hurts my head.

This phone has been out for a year and a half, there's been millions and millions of man hours gone in to developing, tweaking and messing with the workings of this phone, yet there is still no camera that matches the quality of the stock camera on AOSP. Just accept that it isn't possible and likely will never be possible like it was mentioned earlier.

[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] auriculogenesis:
For further feedback from a camera power user, I attempted to use the Snapdragon camera on CM12 and it was not a pleasurable experience. It took way too much time to take HDR shots and even normal shots lagged. It was so bad that I had to flash to stock just to enjoy using the camera again. With that being said, the quality seemed up to snuff compared to the stock camera, but it is still an unusable tool.

I definitely am not happy with current aftermarket solutions and would support the development of having the stock camera framework on AOSP.
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] AlwaysLucky:
For those on an AOSP MM ROM, I found the best replacement for the stock LG camera app is using Open Camera, along with flashing the attached zip I made. Flashing the zip will force all pictures taken to be saved at 100% jpeg quality, it allows 4k video, and it increases the maximum allowed video bitrate to 100mbps. Open Camera allows you to choose any bitrate you want, however. I do miss the fast focusing that the stock camera app uses the laser for, but it's a small price to pay to have amazing video quality.
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Achyleus:
Open camera

Does it support taking photo by touching any part of the screen? that is one top feature of stock camera. Touching triggers focusing (with laser) then taking picture.

Secondly, does it enable triggering selfie by listening to keyword like 'cheese' or 'smile'?
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] AlwaysLucky:
Yes, it has the option for single tap or double tap anywhere on the screen to take a pic. However, the focusing is not as fast as the laser focusing. It's got a lot of options, though. I'd check it out and see if it's something that could replace the stock app for you. :cowboy:
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] reliant_turbo:
I downloaded this and flashed while on a stock LG rom (47a) to try out the program to see how it worked. While flashing, I noticed a note in the install script that said "exclusively for cm13." this shouldn't interefere with xcam and stock cam operation? After using I haven't seen any weirdness.

Thx
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] AlwaysLucky:
What it does is raise limits of video bitrates and jpg storage quality so no harm done there. However, it was made for AOSP-based Marshmallow ROMs (ie CM13), and those ROMs do not yet support 60+ fps video, so you might (or might not) lose 60+ fps video recording functionality if flashed on a stock ROM.
[G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Achyleus:
test of Open Camera

Hi, I could test it and I likes the features, some of them are not working but I suppose if will be eventually fixed

Quality of pictures and videos is very good

focus by tapping the screen working

triggering photo by saying "Cheese": function is there but not working (might be because bugs on my nightlies versions?)

An issue on exposition lock: it works for the next 1 photo only; small bug, I suppose it will be fixed

Once you go in gallery, navigation back from gallery to Open camera is too long. You need to tap backward button several times if you are insider folders. Instead, it could be easier to run the gallerty as a separate program instead from Open Camera?

Also, Hdr is working fine!

Interface is good also, making it customizable would be awesome and well in the spirit of this cam (which I found ultra customizable)

Thanks for pointing me to this app, I will follow it!

As a former avid HTC user, I would just like to confirm that both HTC Camera and HTC Gallery are running perfectly fine on my LG G3 with CM12.1.

I had to settle for the older versions though, as the latest ones are incompatible with this device, but they are still more than perfect for daily usage :)

hi all,

Would like to share this LG G2 camera port, i found this here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64950939&postcount=585. it works very well on my LG G3 D855 CM13 Nightly 20161015. i attached some comparison shot, i find the G2 camera does take REAL near stock or stock quality image. To use this camera, i have to change my resolution to 1080x1920 480 dpi (LG G2 native rasolution) using Resolution Changer - ROOT from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.zuim.resolutionchanger&hl=en Before this, i did try out HTC cam. Jishno Lenovo and Open Camera and they don't even come close to this kind of quality (see attachment). I hope this information will help those who wanted to flash CM13 but have concern about the camera quality. lastly, i would like to send out a BIG BIG thanks to B!GBOY who posted this LG G2 Camera port.

[Nexus 5X General] sn0warmy:
Now that we have our first custom kernel available (Thanks [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]). We can now adjust the display color settings on the 5X. This will come in VERY handy for those who feel that the screen on their 5X is too yellow. It will also allow you to make tweaks to saturation, contrast, etc. to correct the lackluster color depth that the factory settings provide.

There are plenty of app options for performing these tweaks, but the two below are confirmed to be currently working on the 5X:

KCal Color Control (XDA Link)

EX Kernel Manager (Play Store Link)

EDIT: It turns out I had a bad device with a yellow tinted display. I've since RMA'd it for one with a MUCH whiter display. So the below color settings won't be ideal for those who did get a good screen on their device.

**Comparison pics of the old screen vs new screen in post #35

Color calibrations used with my previous (yellow display) 5X. If you have a yellower display, these will be good for you:

Red: 235

Green: 245

Blue: 256

Saturation: 50

Value: 130

Contrast: 130

I've spent some time calibrating my new, much whiter screen. They are very close to the settings szucsgf mentioned below in the comments with some more saturation:

Red: 246

Green: 250

Blue: 256

Saturation: 50

Value: 130

Contrast: 130

Feel free to post your results so we can compile some of the best settings here.
[Nexus 5X General] Pandages:
Thanks for posting this! How did you pick your values? Did you compare to a calibrated color chart, like the kind used by photographers? Or did you use a colorimeter?
[Nexus 5X General] sn0warmy:
I just eye balled it with the phone sitting next to my iPhone 6S and color calibrated Nexus 6. I was able to eliminate the yellow hue completely and make the blacks much deeper. I know other members here use colorimeters and other tools for more accurate adjustment, so I imagine in time they will chime in with much better calibrations. But for now, my settings are a good starting point to at least eliminate the yellow (warm) hue the screen has by default.
[Nexus 5X General] Pandages:
Thanks for the explanation :) iphones do tend to be calibrated pretty well, but eyeballing it isn't the most accurate method. It'll help get the color balance, but probably not the white, black, or grey points.

As a photographer, I'm actually pretty happy with the warmth in the screen. I find most monitors and phones to be super cool (blue) and that they make my photos look way worse than the originals.
[Nexus 5X General] stu5797:
Nice eye ball settings! Looking forward to comparing yours to more "scientific" numbers
[Nexus 5X General] mcantu:
iphones are calibrated with a white point around 7000-7200K, which is slightly blue. While many find that visually appealing, it's not quite 'accurate.' 6500K is the target for an accurate white point and phonearena measured the 5x at a white point of 6799K. I've found that while the screen may not look as cool when next to other phones, pictures on the 5x look damn good

I think some issues with 'yellow' screens may have more to do with panels having brightness problems
[Nexus 5X General] 0.0:
I presume root is needed for both of the apps?
[Nexus 5X General] Jooosty:
What's the best way to do this without root? Recommend an app?

XPERIA Z5 GREEN
[Nexus 5X General] szucsgf:
Root is absolutely required.
[Nexus 5X General] sn0warmy:
Root is required to flash a kernel that allows for these color calibrations. So, in turn, root is also required to use the apps required to make these adjustments.

If you don't want to root, there are apps you can use to apply an overlay on the screen to eliminate the yellow (warm) hue.

One app I used previously is:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.netmanslab.sa

With that app I found that if you leave everything as is and just turn Blue up +10 - +15 it eliminates the warm hue. However, this is simply adding a layer of blue and not truly calibrating the screen. So I still recommend, to those who want to do it right, that you root and use a custom recovery to properly calibrate the screen.

It's actually quite annoying that Google doesn't allow people to make these calibrations in stock configuration without rooting, but that's a whole different topic.
[Nexus 5X General] buru898:
Hey your colors are pretty nice! I like the whiter look on the phone and this is good. Will be using it for some time, thanks!
[Nexus 5X General] Zach1928:
I notice the OP mentions the yellow-ish tint on the display. Google is actually replacing for this particular issue- My first 5X had an issue with the receiver so call quality sucked and the one I just got in the mail has a very warm hue to it, between red and yellow and after a phone call they are sending me another one.
