Looks like a great update. Too bad I don't have any Windows PCs so I can't update my firmware. Amazing that a company can release products that run entirely on Linux but still requires Windows to manage the things. Ridiculous.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] highlandsun:
Have you been able to install the update?

I still can't get any PC to see my UT4 when plugging in the USB cable. I have booted up the UT4 with the Recovery button held in, and it enters the recovery menu. But still no activity on USB, I still can't use adb to talk to the thing. The PC kernel never sees anything new on the USB bus.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] Such_A_Victor:
This time I reflash device without any problems. But last time with ut3s I had problems with usb port and forget to install rk drivers.

As for a linux:

The New Ugoos AM1

Hi Guys

I received my Ugoos AM1 last week. It has Amlogic S905 with 2GB RAM and 16GB hard disk and the rest are almost similar to any android box. This also has dual band wifi and gigabit ethernet.

Rooting option is available under setting.

I tried some 4k samples etc, all works as desired including other browsing tasks. Nothing to complain. Just that my heat sink had come off and was making a clunk-clunk noise when I picked up the device during unboxing. I had to open and fix it myself. But no issues with performance. It gets warmer with more media consumption which I guess is normal.

Is there anyone tried to install Remix OS on this device if not what is the process to do so. Also if I want to get back to the OEM ROM if something goes wrong how to do that?

thanks

[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] Such_A_Victor:
I saw thread on freaktab about it. Guy installed Remix Os on Telos box. He decided to reflash device back because of inability to watch youtube in 1080 in standard app and had some problems to get back using recovery. But if you have burning tool it should not be a big problem.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] sany:
Oh so you mean to say in Remix OS you can't watch youtube at 1080p?

Ugoos UT 4 issues, 1.1.4 firmware

Anyone having any of these issues with the unit?

- Audio stutters and changes audio tone at certain intervals while watching Kodi movies / TV shows or You Tube videos daily, even after the 1.1.4 and Ugoos kodi update.

- If I load a live wallpaper on the desktop screen the audio is even worse in Kodi and You Tube.

- Facebook notifications interrupt / pause audio as well when using Ugoos Kodi.

- The Processor runs at 65 degrees Celsius when there are certain notifications in the drop down, once notifications have been cleared it drops back down to 42 degrees.

- In Multimode one can’t open Facebook or YouTube in full screen.

- Processor Temperature sometime spikes to 80 Degrees Celsius, I have the bare minimum apps installed even with internal fan permanently on.

- The settings menu’s do not factory reset the device, I often have to do a pin reset

- The recovery menu is halfway off the screen on the left hand side making it difficult to use recovery.

- When trying to close opened apps the X takes a while to appear in the app boxes.

- File server often disables itself, one has to go back into settings and re-enable.

- Coolmaster Temperature readings differ completely from on-board Temp settings.

- Disabling processor sensor in settings seems to help with Kodi Audio stuttering but not YouTube.

Hey guys.

trying to get an xbox one pad working on the tab s2 for my kids to play emulators.

no joy so far...

... is this actually possible yet?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordHelmchen89:
I don't know, if this is possible, but I use the Asus Gamepad that is made for the Asus Nexus Player. It works fine on all my android devices.

Hope my english is good enough...
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baron von bubba:
your english is perfectly fine dude. :)

didnt really wanna spend more cash on another pad.

i have 4 xbox one pads and also a microsoft wireless adaptor, a couple of wii pads and 2 x ps3 pads knocking about. ps3 pads have borked batts tho.

something amongst that lot must work?! :crying:
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordHelmchen89:
If you really wanna use your Xbox One Controller, you can use an otg-adapter to plug in the wireless-adapter of your controller. If this doesn't work for you, you have to root your device and set up the controller via an extra app. An easier way to play emulator games on your tablet is using your smartphones as bluetooth controller. For this method you don't need to root your phone. Just load the app "BT Controller" via Playstore on your phone and your tablet and follow the instructions to connect them via bluetooth and easiely setup the buttons layout. You can set up 4 smartphones as controller at the same time ;)

Hope i could help you
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baron von bubba:
the tab s2 is rooted.

i have tried it with OTG, wired and using an adaptor.

the tab sees the controller when its wired using the USB/BT joystick centre but thats as far as it goes, no key presses on the pad register. :confused:

i havent tried to use my phone as a controller, that kinda defeats the object tho', i may as well just use the tablet screen.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baron von bubba:
ok,

so it seems Play station pads with OTG function flawlessly.

bubble bobble here we come!!
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzmachine:
I can confirm this; I use a Playstation 3 controller via OTG and an adapter regularly. I always start the Sixaxis app whenever I do, but not sure if I need to... I haven't even tried using it with blutooth, but it's an easy way to switch the IME to the controller.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilliman:
Some extremely vile phone networks detect whether your "phone" is a tablet (or dongle or whatever) and disable their SIM !

Other phone networks have no issues at all, so currently I am using my 10.5" phablet with a network that allows me to make and receive calls and texts.

But how do they know the make and model of my device, or does my device announce itself as a "tablet" or as a "non phone" somehow ? I am thinking since my tablet is the same in all respects to a large phone, is htere a way to disguise it in software?

Many thanks
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheArtiszan:
No not really. They know the type of device by the imei that you are connecting with. That tells them the type of device connecting.

In HTC home plug, I can set one of the soft buttons on the launcher to "launch programs folder". Is there a way to map this function to a hardkey? I don't want to download a third party launcher--I just want to be able to press a button and open the programs folder (and not in the file explorer view).

Any help would be wonderful.

Another folder in which I could put shortcuts in would also work. I just want the icons large and finger friendly like the programs folder.

Is it possible to use folderview.exe to do this?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] vigilante_xix:
Check here for the solution...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1644004&postcount=7

I used this to create a shortcut in each and every sub folder under Programs so once in a sub folder, I can easily go back to the Programs folder without having to close the window and open the Programs again from the HTC Home App.

I called the shortcut '!Back to Programs.lnk' so it appeard at the beginning of every folder and the shortcut is setup as follows...

53#\Windows\folderview.exe #?\Windows\shellres.dll,-8208

Copy the above into simple binary text editor and save to have your shortcut.

I guess you wouldn't need the '53#' and '?\Windows\shellres.dll,-8208' bits to link to hardkey. This is more to give the shortcut a nicer icon in the folder view.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] bobaka:
Been looking for this. google search "launch programs folder" found this thread. Ought just be a 'icon view' option in file explorer dontcha think? Thanks!
[Mogul, XV6800 General] vigilante_xix:
Hmmm... it's not doing quite what I'm after...

As the FolderView is an application, when you click the X in the top right corner, it closes the window. If you were in the 'Start' => 'Programs' folder and were in a sub folder, pressing the OK button would simply return you to the previous folder.

I counter acted this by adding a shortcut to the FolderView app in every folder as mentioned above but for some reason this no longer works correctly. I think it has something to do with the HTC Task Manager I have upgraded to (v 2.0.30995). Works better than previous version but for this one thing, I think it's stopping multiple instances of the FolderView app.

So, this brings me to... How can you load the Programs Folder so you can go back from a sub folder?

Can anyone hack the FolderView app? A simple 'Up' button could be added to the lower left of the window, similar to the view of File Explorer. This way, the X can still be used to close the FolderView App and the 'Up' button takes you back up the Programs list.

In case your wondering, I have various apps loaded on my Pocket PC and have categorised them and placed into sub folders. I've then created an icon association to each folder so it looks a little more pleasent when viewing. However, I want to freely browse the folder. See attached Tumbnail...
[Mogul, XV6800 General] bobaka:
the link works on sprint touch. I call it "_Up" so it always appears at first position.

I note that folderview when you close it doesn't appear in task menu like file explorer and most other app.

folderview with some options would be great because it's a fast finger friendly interface ... must faster and easier to configure than various cubes.

ps

I came across this in another thread. I haven't tried it yet but I'm gonna take a look when I get a chance.

Possibly it could be used to add some features to folderview:

http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/
[Mogul, XV6800 General] topdawgn8:
I'm glad I stumbled across this thread because I think it's exactly what I want to do...I just need a little help as I'm not as savvy as some of you guys might be.

What I'm wanting to do is create sub directories in my programs folder like viglante_xix does (grouping Office, GPS Programs, Media Programs, etc.) and point to it as a shortcut in rlToday. I think I might have been able to figure this out on my own after tinkering, but I don't have the folderview.exe in my windows dir. Can someone send me a copy or know of an alternative?

Also, I'm not completely ignorant to programming; I know a little VB, Java, and C++. I understand how the code above works, but what program do I use to make this shortcut...preferably something free.

Thanks in advance.

But even this did not update, got error. I unrooted and again tried with the OTA file but getting same error. Should I do the OTA update through the phone again?
