[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pan2fire:
HI all,

Over in the UK, and ordered my first ever android device which I got 2 weeks ago (TAB S 8.4 T705). I am led to believe any issues with it will be sorted more quickly before the "golden month cooling down period" has expired, so I am spending many hours trying to test it all and make sure it's working properly before the 4 weeks is up. The sound on the Tab S has not gained many good reviews, and is often classed as "average", yet I would currently put it at "below average". There are many things to like about this tablet, and I will live with the very limited speaker performance as long I am confident this is "normal". I would like to ask you guys if the TAB S speakers distort for you. Most of the time the sound is acceptable, but once I increase to over 70%, I can hear a rough sound accompanying it. (no problem with ear phones btw)

Please would you do the following and let me know what you hear:

Bring up the alarm clock and select the sound "Soft Breeze Waltz". While adjusting the slider for volume, do you hear distortion with the piano sounds with a volume over 40 or 50%?

I am new to this forum, so I hope to stick around and learn a thing or two.

Thanks for reading and hopefully reporting back.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):
I would not expect too much from those tiny little speakers, you might have the bass set too high, try different profiles or do a custom if possible.

EDIT: OK i had to give it a go, I played "Soft Breeze Waltz" at 100% volume and there was very little if any distortion, maybe the 10.5" has different speakers.

John.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pan2fire:
Hi John, thanks for replying to me.

Yeah, I won't expect much from those speakers, but I want my brand new Tab to work as Samsung intended it to work. I got to play around with the Tab 4 for a few days over xmas, and I never noticed any issues with the speakers on that, and I feel certain they were much better.

Thanks for testing out that alarm sound, but perhaps there is a difference in speakers with the 10.5 like you said. Regarding equalizers, that only seems to apply when listening to music, and I don't get an option for that when setting the alarm. I will grab some sound apps and see if that does anything, but now you tell me you didn't get any distortion, makes me wonder if I should try for a replacement. I am really happy with it apart from this. It's certain tones that are most noticeable, like piano, and that melody clearly sounds s#it over 50% volume. If anyone else who has the 8.4 model is happy to test theirs, I would be grateful for your feedback.

Nick
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Tbh I find the speakers perfectly acceptable on my 10.5 and just as I would expect. I haven't noticed any distortion at louder levels. I'll do some tests.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pan2fire:
This is frustrating. Ordered a book cover for it and really intend on keeping it, but the sound on it just seems less than acceptable, but I do have a keen ear for sound and music. I can't see the speakers being any different between the 8.4 and 10.5, so maybe there could be an issue with mine. Yeah, try that test out, thanks. Still hoping someone with the same model as mine might pipe in.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):
Does the sound quality sound the same from either speaker, if it does it`s unlikely you to have two faulty speakers.

Have you asked anybody else to listen to the sound quality to see if they hear the same distortion that you do.

John.

I found a review of the loudspeaker when compared to other tablets.

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_tab_s_84-review-1095p7.php
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pan2fire:
Thanks for that. You made a good point, but speakers could still be affected by a driver issue making them both sound bad. However, the top speaker does seem to be a lot worse than the bottom one, so thanks for pointing that out. I saw mixed reviews about the speakers, from saying they are good (like above), and others saying they were disappointing and "tinny" and "inviting distortion" when cranking up the volume.

Reviews of course can be subjective. I think if this was normal, there'd be many more people complaining about them, so I will call Samsung on Monday and ask them. Hopefully they won't try and repair it, and just give me a replacement. Cheers for your help.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
I tested the alarm file and it did sound a little raspy at the top end on full vol.

So I played Happy by Pharrell mp3. At full whack it had a little distortion until I turned the vol down to 12 from 15.

It's nothing I wouldn't have expected and perfectly acceptable to me.

I compared the same track to my HTC One_M8 which is known for its speakers and audio quality and Tbh not much different.

Still some distortion at the top end at full vol.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pan2fire:
I looked for that MP3 "Happy" and downloaded it from Faxo.com, so assuming we both have the same file recorded at same volume, then I had the same experience. In fact, in made me wonder if I was being a fussy git. Just that you expect the pre-installed alarm melodies to play really well.

I could send this one back, and the next could have more serious problems, so I am re-evaluating what to do now :/
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zooster:
Sometime they distort but it depends on the audio played.

Instead I've got a different problem, audio doesn't seem centered. I mean the "balance" seems to be slightly on right. Right speaker is louder, do you have such an issue?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pan2fire:
Yes, it does depend on what is played. These speakers do not handle piano tones well at all, while other sounds seem OK. Interesting you talk about the right (top) being louder, as that's the one that seems to be distorting more for me, or perhaps it's just that it's louder! Samsung are going to pick it up from me and send me a new replacement anyway, which is good, because I'll be forever regretting not trying. I'd still be happy with it even if this was normal for the Tab S...just can't bare the idea of having a deficient device.

For anyone that's interested... I learned how to get the test page up where you can test all the hardware.

1. Open calculator

2. Type in (+30,012,012,732+

3. On the large keypad, type in *#0*#

You should then have a load of buttons to test all your hardware.

Hi,

I'm kind of freaking out right now! I completely forgot the password I set on my Nexus 6P, and for the past few days I've been depending on my fingerprint. Well, I rebooted my device and now I can't get back in, because the devices asks for a password on boot up, before I can get to the lockscreen and use my finger print. Is there any way at all to bypass this password? I am rooted.

Any help would be appreciated! I suppose I could just wipe my phone and restart, but what a hassle :mad:

I got this phone off ebay for a deal 330$. My plan was to root and install an aosp rom.

I have rooted the phone but cannot find anyway to install twrp. Seems like all the twrp recoveries and custom roms are for tmobile and international versions

i was not aware when i bought this phone that it would be a us cellular version the ad did not say

anyways what are my options? Is it possible to get an aosp rom on this version of the phone any advice would greatly be

appreciated
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billybob275:
Unfortunately there are no options as of now. The bootloader is locked and there hasn't been a workaround discovered for it yet like for other devices.

At best you can root and flash xposed on the phone as long as it has Lollipop, but as it looks now, you won't be able to keep root if you upgrade to Marshmallow.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neal425:
thanks for the reply, i can stop searching like a fool lol

will i even get the marshmallow update, i have a us cellular version running on att network
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billybob275:
The US Cellular model will most likely get MM soon, but if you're on the AT&T network, you won't get the OTA. I'm not sure if you would have to put a US Cellular SIM back in temporarily to get the OTA download, or if you could just remove the AT&T SIM and download it over WiFi. Otherwise, you could just get the kdz when it comes out, plug into your computer and force the update that way.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neal425:
yah but even with the mm kdz file comes out it will be for us cellular and the phone will become carrier locked and i will have to go thru the hassle if getting unlocked. btw my firmware version is us99110a i bought it off ebay. the seller did not specify it was under any network just said network unlocked. but like i said my firmmware version is us99110a which i believe is a us cellular firmware

I'm searching for information about ROMcooking for ATOM Life, but unfortunately there are not many informations about this device.

1.The Wiki explains only the ATOM Romupdate:

The ATOM Life Update .exe contains:

Can someone explain the different files ?

OK I read some threads and learned Howto dump the OS image with Scooterkitchen. Howto add or remove files is an easy job (I hope),

but how can I rebuild this dump to a flashable image?

Hope some of you can lightup me. :) and sorry for my bad english :D

now,get a new rom update method:

it's get from atom life room replant from exec

filename is

AL1.DIO -os

EXROM.IMG -extrom

copy these 2 files to mini sd card,reboot+record enter bootloader mode

system updated!

and use this rom we can updta life to chinese rom version

based on this method

i guess we can copy these FLASH.DIO,ExtRom.img,2 files to mini sd card,reboot+record enter bootloader mode

loading OS

u can try to update your own room update in life.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] scorpio16v:
Thank you for reply

yes, but that'll be the easier part of the job.

My problem is, if I dump the FLASH.DIO in Scooterkitchen I use the following way, posted in an other thread:

This pocedure runs fine, but If you running the FLASH.DIO throug msflshtool.exe it splits in 3 parts. (OS and 2 ?? XIP parts).

At this point, I don't know how to rebuild.

The second problem is:

The device will be released as XDA Comet in germany (my country) in about 2 weeks with german language WM6 and at this state I have no backup ROM to restore it to manufacturer settings if something went wrong.

I will try to dump my german ROM and rebuild it with the XIP part of the english XDA ATOM Life ROM but I need an experienced guide to do that.

Is this AL1.DIO SD-update on Developer FTP the actual english version? Where comes it from ?

I don't find the thread about it. :confused:

"AL1.DIO" seems the same like the name "HERM.img" for the HTC Hermes. If you update via SD the Bootloader recognized it as the OS-file.

another edit (thanks again to ferryboat):

That explains the pass.32 file, but you don't need it to SDcard update ? :confused:
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] ferryboat:
"buildimgfs.exe" command to build rom and

i see this chinese rom from blow links,and a lots of people have updated their life to this version.

http://www.52dopod.net/thread-33648-1-1.html

modify 'pass.32' file is only used when use USB link cable to update rom simultaneity you want to change your life rom language from eng to chn or chn to eng.this method is replant from atom and exec.we do not need to modity this file when we update rom in bootloader mode.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] scorpio16v:
I've made a short test with mamaich's imgfstools like in your example, if I dump the ROM and rebuild it without any changes (with -nosplit option) the rebuild file has the same size.

But if I compare both files shouldn't the new file be a perfect clone from the scource ?

The new file has the same structure in some parts, but most of it is different. :o

Please help me!

Please help me!

Many thanks.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] jiggs:
Nope. It wouldn't be a perfect clone. Even in the ATOM, it does not generate a perfect clone. But it still works with mamaich tools anyway. If you want just to edit the IMGFS section, I think it's okay. Just test... :D

Just don't touch the bootloader eboot.nb0; so, you won't brick your phone. Also, if possible, always update in bootloader mode. Because if you can't update in bootloader mode, You won't be able to restore your device if you have a none working ROM.

Here's a batch file I wrote in opening and closing part1 of atom life. The user who requested was afraid to try it anyway. The purpose of this was to modify the pagepool for the atom life. There are tools available now that can edit the pagepool on the fly, but the atom is not supported. I don't know with atom life.

<<<< breakdown >>>>
msflshtool.exe flash.dio -d -p1
SRPX2XIP flash.dio.part1
del flash.dio.part1

<<<< rebuild >>>>
XIP2SRPX flash.dio.part1.xip
msflshtool.exe flash.dio -r flash.dio.part1.xip.xiporg

Well I only use breakdown because we will just import the atom life components into our atom devices anyway.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] jiggs:
The Atom Life sure could use some update... official AKU0.7 is coming out and atom life is still at AKU0.2.

Our Atoms have AKU0.3 already and we're moving to AKU0.4
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] jiggs:
Rom Dumper

search for buzz romgrabber / romdumper and dump it to your SDCARD or you internal memory. :D

This is the RAW file that should be read during bootloader update thru SDCARD. For the ATOM, (if we compare dump with update file) only the header was removed. I don't know with atom life. I don't recommend updating bootloader file with SDCard because SDCard might have a bad block and it will kill your device.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Storm Shadow 007:
Hi,

I own a Motorola Moto g2 (2014) Indian Version, 16 gb and i am running a stock firmware 5.0.2, rooted and bootloader unlocked. and i want to install a Custom ROM, So i went on to Youtube and find out how to unlock the bootloader and install Super SU.

After that i came to know about this site, and thought of flashing CM 13, and so in order to do that it was required to update bootloader, since it won't work on bootloader 4.4

So, i followed the instructions clearly and updated the bootloader and the TWRP Recovery , Both are successfull.

Now comes the problem part for me:

So when i browsed the xda developers site in the moto g 2014 thread , i came across this post:

http://xdaforums.com/moto-g-2014/general/6-0official-indian-ota-zip-captured-t3299550

It said

So to everyone here. After updating to 6.0 I don't think it's a good idea to downgrade to 5.0.2 and update it with stagefright update over the air.

I made it and it hardbricked my phone.

5.0.2 bootloader version is 48.83

6.0 bootloader version is 48.86

So, don't downgrade your bootloader, it can cause hardbrick!

so, i got afraid, since i am going to install cm 13 nightly which is unstable and the bootloader already updated, will i be having problems when i restore it back to stock 5.0.2

and would it be safe if i installed cm 12.1 after updating the booloader or will it hard brick my phone. (since cm 12.1 is stable version compared to cm 13)

P.S Can someone post a link on how to backup before installing the Custom ROM, since i always see this step:

that is to make a backup using TWRP and then use advanced wipe to wipe the device, the only question is won't the adavanced wipe deletes the backup folder ?

And Is there any stable ROMS for moto g that runs marshmallow, + is it possible to install multi ROM twrp and Install CM 13 Along with the Stock Android
