Let me know what you guys think after the update of the performance of the device. Seems smoother to me. Update is pretty simple. I just made sure all packages were re enabled from package disabler pro and also changed the home app to touchwhizz. Another thing that the update required was to have the latest galaxy gear version so remember to update it before you go ahead with marshmallow.

Downloading from where? is sharing something you may consider?

---------- Post added at 10:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 AM ----------

Is this in India only?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swarup.siddharth:
I got the ota. It should be up on sammobile by now though I'm not sure of that. I would gladly share if I had a download link.

This is for the sm n920g
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhasce:
I see ok then it must be India only cause mine is not even near getting and update keeps telling me it is up to date. Sammobile don;t have it yet :(

Hi,

I have a blu studio c5+5 and I really need either a complete stock rom or custom rom.

I want to unlock it as its currently locked to my Local network provider. The current model says D880L.

If someone knows where I can possibly get an unlock code to buy that would also be helpful.

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] SteelF0x:
I also really need this my phone is bricked.
[General Questions and Answers] hombresincero1:
Unlocking the D880L

The D890U works perfectly well on the D880L. In fact, I was able to unlock my phone from my local network by replacing the D880L stock ROM with the D890U stock ROM and gain access to the other sim card because the C5 + 5 is a dual sim phone. Finally, this particular phone gets errors with the MTK Droid Tool when you try to back it up and replace the IMEI number. You will have to definitely replace/ repair the IMEI number of your phone if you flash this phone with the D890U ROM. However there is another tool that I had to use to get the job done which also does not require root. It is called MTK Engineering which can be downloaded from the Google Play Store.

My next task is to find a suitable CWM or TWRP that I can use with this phone to create a backup.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMakeshiftHero:
i've gotten my hands on a pure factory stock rom for the c5+5. i went to post it but it said i didn't have enough posts to be able to post download links. Do any of you guys still need it? I know that the D890 ROM going around the internet is pre-rooted and damaged under the surface.

[Android Software Development] goofwear:
I could upload a video on how to manually do this in under 10 seconds using only 1 program but would rather wait until I have a suitable "easy to use for every one" program to release. I.E. (fully automated) One click only

I already have a working version but its uses a couple programs and needs user intervention and is only partially automated.
[Android Software Development] h.nocturna:
I would love one!
[Android Software Development] goofwear:
In the mean time if any one wants me to extract "some" photos and videos you can pm me your files. Sorry the program is taking a little longer then I had expected.
[Android Software Development] h.nocturna:
I’m also really curious how these mpg files stored within the jpg container. Any hints?
[Android Software Development] goofwear:
Kind of, I will tell how as soon as I have a proper release.

okay here is one really small hint /b

and I am not talking about the "Rules Of The Internet

"[IMG="Rules Of The Internet"]http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/anonymous-history-uk/images/5/5c/Rules.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20131202031803[/IMG]
[Android Software Development] kitashimakaze:
In case anyone can't wait, the mpg file is simply appended at the end of the jpg file. To split them, open the file in any hex editor, search for "motion" and find the line "MotionPhoto_Data". Save everything after this as a new file to get the mpg, and everything before to get the jpg.
[Android Software Development] h.nocturna:
I guessed that would be the case seeing as every other app can open the jpg just fine. But I never followed through with a hex editor. One day when I’m better at programming, I’m thinking about making an app that will extract the mpg and convert it to a gif file so it can be easily shared.

Looking forward to your progress!
[Android Software Development] automattech:
I knocked together a ruby script to extract mine, iv just posted it to github for anyone who wants it.

[Android Software Development] h.nocturna:
Awesome! Thanks! I’ll check it out!
[Android Software Development] goofwear:
[MENTION=7361332]kitashimakaze[/MENTION] yes you are right But you want to search for "MotionPhoto_Data" and the above hex will be the photo and everything below MotionPhoto_Data will be the mpeg. technically the jpg ends at the last 2 characters being ÿÙ and the mpeg starts with "....ftypmp42" As I said earlier I was going to Properly Explain all of this and in detail as soon as I had some thingy easy for the everyday user.

[Android Software Development] fabianfred:
:o Sorry I must be stupid but I cannot get it to work. I'll have to await your simpler version.
[Android Software Development] goofwear:
I have just uploaded a how to video on the first post, it is at the bottom , Please watch it in HD 720 and try again. It is actually REALLY EASY to use.

1). Double click convert.bat drop and drag photo into the hex converter and let got, then press ok.

2). wait untill notepadd plus plus open and Select all the text (best way is hold ctrl and press a) this makes sure you get it all. then close the notepad.

3). In HXD click new and then ok then Hold ctrl v to paste all then click file save and as it as a .jpg Repeat steps to save your video & ave as mpg.

Please let me know if this works for you. I have also spent a lot of time to try and make this as simple as possible for every one and automate as much as I could.

This is basically just copy and pasting from one window to another and clicking save (using keyboard short cuts)
[Android Software Development] goofwear:
The phone saves the Video to the end of the file and it adds a little bit of meta data at the end of the Jpg file and before the mpg file

is essence it is almost exactly the same as this.

"Appending Binary Files Using the COPY Command"

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/71161

copy /b <source1> + <source2> [....] <targetfile>

normally when extracting the image and video you would delete this meta data but in the program I released I have chosen to leave it at the end of the JPG so you can easy merge them back into 1 file and have it work again as a motion photo on your cell phone. I have mentioned how this is done in the first post in a little more detail.

Sorry for not telling you guys earlier. I wanted to have something to release to show it could be done and before some one else took my idea and beat me to the punch.

Most people do not publicly mention projects they are working on until they have something. I was a little excited and wanted to let people know ahead of the time that I was working on a project.
[Android Software Development] peachpuff:
Just tried it, works just as intended, kinda expected the video to be a bit higher res but whatever.

Now if you could somehow be able to fully automate this and do batch conversions that would be awesome, but at this stage this is more than good enough once you get the hang of it.
[Android Software Development] goofwear:
[MENTION=2903597]peachpuff[/MENTION] Thank you for the positive feedback and I am really glad it worked for you.

Yeah I already tried that. you can look up the linux commands awk, sed, cut, I even download the windows compiled binaries of those commands. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut_(Unix)

tried to do cut -b -d"MotionPhoto_Data" but you can one have it search for 1 character you cannot have it search for more then one so that would not work. I was going to have it take the jpg hex and calculate it and then divide by 2 to get the ANSI/ASCII count in bytes and do a cut. but when access the photo in original form. The cut command was not reading the bytes in proper format. / the encoding was wrong. Converting it all to hex it is able to easily work with the hex as plain text characters. I even looked into the windows power shell https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh847811.aspx I tried all the different file encoding and non of them worked, they all had errors. That is another reason it took me over a week too even come up with this release I was up all night for a couple of days trying new ideas and methods.

open the batch file in note pad and take a look at it you can see all that it is doing.

I have it delete the 3 temp hex files

then have it start the converter then you garage photo to convert it to hex then i renam it ti tmp.hex and the i used the fart.exe find and replace to look for (hex values for the )motion_data and replave them with x hex values are only 0-9 and A-F the value x is not hex and x is only one character. i can then use cut to search for x and make sure it is cutting in the right spot. I then save to the left of x in hex value as jpg.hex and the right of as mpg.hex. I have the delete tmp.hex and then open the notepad++ an open the jpg hex and so on...

I did find a command bin2hex converter but it added ... in their designating each line i then had i parse the files and remove the ... but when I went to cut it a the X the hex was on multiple lines so it was always cutting in the wrong spots. I can try working automating this more a little later.

[Android Software Development] fabianfred:
It doesn't seem to work with every Motion Photo as there are some persistent failures.

For myself I am not too much interested in getting an original jpg file since the size of the Motion photo at about 10mb isn't much different than files from some 20mp+ cameras.

I am mainly interested in the mp4 clips so I just do the operation once using the mpg file.

After seeing this tool and in particular how to parse the video out of a motion photo, I put together a very simple Android app that extracts and shares the video portion. I shared it over in the S7 forums as well.

I had some files which the videos would not play with any player made from your extractor.
[Android Software Development] goofwear:
that should not happen are you using VLC player , and or the Klite mega codec pack. If so your should not have any problem.

you can manually try extracting it. Open your original file in the hex editor and then hold the ctrl button and press F this will bring up the search box then paste this in MotionPhoto_Data make sure the Data type drop down is set to Text string then click ok. Now press the Right arrow key on your keyboard JUST once this will bring you the the right of the letter a... Now hold down crtl + Shift and press the END key this will select all the video and hold ctrl +c to copy all of this. Now click file new and then then click in a white are and press ctrl +v the past it and now save it as an mp4 or mpg

For those on Linux or macOS I've created a quick Bash script that will extract the videos from all of your motion photos: https://gist.github.com/kmark/67cf6c03753ccab155a5da31b3ccd93e You'll need to install exiftool. It can probably be done through your package manager. If you're on Windows I imagine it wouldn't be too hard to get working under Cygwin or Bash/WSL.

Thank you for your investigation!

I've discovered that exiftool can do all work in two simple commands: it will save video and remove it from jpeg.

It can be used on Windows, Linux and Mac OS and will work with any number of files and only with Motion Photo files:

CMD
exiftool -EmbeddedVideoFile -b -w _MotionPhoto.mp4 *.jpg

exiftool -trailer:all= -if "$EmbeddedVideoType eq 'MotionPhoto_Data'" *.jpg

PS
.\exiftool -EmbeddedVideoFile -b -w _MotionPhoto.mp4 *.jpg

.\exiftool -trailer:all= -if '$EmbeddedVideoType eq ''MotionPhoto_Data''' *.jpg

Example for Windows:

1. Put exiftool to folder with photos:

[IMG="1"]https://cdn.pbrd.co/images/GXsrl3v5.png[/IMG]

2. Press Shift and Right mouse click on white space in folder and open Powershell or Command-line (depending on Windows version

[IMG="2"]https://cdn.pbrd.co/images/GXsruQh.png[/IMG]

3. Enter first command to fetch videos from all jpeg files (if presented) in folder:

[IMG="3"]https://cdn.pbrd.co/images/GXsrAtj.png[/IMG]

4. Enter second command to remove video from all jpeg files (if presented) and save originals:

This. Post. ROCKS! Thanks, dude! People should be more aware of this technique. Please share this somewhere where people can find it better :D
[Android Software Development] sksoft:
Made simple context menu shell extension for Windows 10 that adds two context menu items for .jpg files:

- Extract JPG: extracts JPEG into the file, adding .jpg at the end, i.e. photo.jpg -> photo.jpg.jpg

- Extract MP4: extracts MP4 into the file, adding .mp4 at the end, i.e. photo.jpg -> photo.jpg.mp4

To add entries to the registry, just replace %exif_path% with actual path to exiftool.exe (ex. C:\\exiftool-10.83\\exiftool.exe), optionally change menu item texts, then save the code in .reg file and launch.

[X Style (Pure) Accessories] mumbles202:
Just picked up the phone and I am looking for a good case. I always keep phone on the hip, wondering if there is a good holster case for the phone that isn't too bulky. I've never been a huge fan of Otterbox cases but if that's all that is both durable and a holster I guess I will consider it.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] aybarrap1:
Supcase makes a decent one that is thinner than the otterbox. The only downsides of that I've seen is that no matter which way you put the phone in the holster, the volume buttons can be pressed. The advantage I see with the otterbox if that the phone can be locked in screen out and the holster used as a kickstand. I personally prefer the otterbox but you will pay more. And the otterbox when I looked was only available from Motorola and otterbox.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] ahent:
Try seidio. They have one that I use and have used for years for different phones. The one for the Moto x pure edition makes the phone less slippery to me. I usually buy an extra holster because I am hard on them and the spring clip breaks eventually.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] mumbles202:
Thanks for the replies. I didn't think Seidio made for the 2015, but will look again. I've always had pretty good luck with their products. Will compare that and the Otterbox if I can find it.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] aybarrap1:
Seido does make one. They sell the case and holster both individually and as a combo
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] SouthernEvo:
Supcase holster and case can be modified actually . I just took a hack saw to the other tab that would cover the volume and power keys . The only downside is you are left releasing the phone from one side only and in one orientation . If this isnt a problem for you . Then this will be a fix for you . Also removal of the built in screen shield is a pain in the ass . Otherwise I love mine since I modified it
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] mumbles202:
Good to hear that there are cases available. Do any of them work with a GPS type mount for a car? Not sure if one even exists that fits the phone either way.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] aybarrap1:
Not sure about GPS mounts. I've seen a few that claim to work with phones with 6 inch screens (i.e. Nexus 6) and they might be big enough.
