[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdabubba14:
The Chinese XT1580 has no Google apps at all (Play Store, gMail, etc). You will need to unlock the bootloader to revise the OS to one that has them installed. (I'm pretty sure you can't just side-load the core Google Apps)

That said, I have a Chinese XT1580 with appended Google apps, and although it's stuck at Android 5.11, it works fine with dual-SIMs, and all current apps. It even passes Google SafetyNet with TWRP installed and the bootloader unlocked.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerverg:
Hi. I had my Note 4 for about 1 week now. At first fast charging was fine. After 1 week i started to have this problem that goes like this.

I would plug the phone to the charger then a notification turns up to say fast charging is enabled. Then it would stop charging after 3 seconds, then charge again, then stop after 3 seconds. Happens for about 5 times after plugging in the charger. After that, charging is fine.

Do you guys experience the same? What do I do? Will it break the phone? What could be the problem? Thanks guys.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxy16:
thats abnormal, try disable fast charging on settings>battery
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Connectivity problem man, loose connection somewhere. Try with a new USB cable, if that doesn't solve it, try a new power adapter.
[Samsung Gear VR] jaredroid:
Okay, so I've done a fair amount of looking around and since I was unable to come up with any information on how to do this, it's likely not possible. First thing, I admit I have yet to receive my promotional Gear VR from purchasing a Galaxy S7 Edge on a pre-order. I have just been trying to figure out what the VR is capable of doing. In particular I've been trying to figure out if it was possible to play games like Walking War Robots or Modern Combat 5 with the Gear VR. Had anybody had any luck with playing any NON-VR games with their Gear VR? I understand that it would be quite unlikely to have the software render these games in true 3D, but I'm more-or-less trying to find a way to play a standard game in a split screen view so it just looks like a large screen in front of my face. I don't think it would be too hard to take the original video output of a game and double it up in split screen for it to be used like this, but I'm no programmer, and wouldn't know where to begin. I would use my phone with an MHL adapter but I've been told it isn't compatible, but that's for another forum topic. If anyone has any info on any of this I'd appreciate it if you could get back to me. If this hasn't been done yet, but is possible, some developer could potentially make a lot of money making an app that would split the video output of a standard game. Thanks in advance to anyone who has any info on doing this. :cool:
[Samsung Gear VR] Kokkie_81:
Yes i'm also interested in this post. When you can only play normal non-vr games in 2D It's enough.
[Samsung Gear VR] darkphantom:
Holy word-wrap Batman. Sorry, your post was very hard to read without spaces but I will read slowly and try again (not to be jerk but it was honestly hard to read).

Okay, so you CAN play non-VR games with the Gear VR but it involves a few different things.

First off, you need a decent PC and a good bandwidth connection to stream to the phone.

Second, there are softwares out there that will turn your games into 3D - the most inclusive one is TrinusVR <---very easy to use, the harder one is Tridef 3D but the results are nicer graphically.

Third, it becomes hard to control with the Gear VR, so it really depends on what the game is and what support there is.

If you have Stream Theatre via the SideloadVR App, try that out. You need Steam on your computer as well. Pair that up with head-tracking such as FacetrackNoIR or Opentrack, you should be set :)
[Samsung Gear VR] chiikko561:
Sorry for a dumb question but are you saying we can play our steam games on our gear vr?
[Samsung Gear VR] Kokkie_81:
Thanks for this answer but I think we mean play non-vr android games or apps from our phone on the gear vr. So Normal apps which are already on the phone. When it's only 2D it's enough. Sort of second screen in front of your face. For example I've PlayStation remote app on my phone so when I can start that one up with the gear vr I can play my PlayStation
[Samsung Gear VR] darkphantom:
^Ah I completely misunderstood, sorry! But here is the question, most games use touch, how would you play without the touch if the gear vr is on your face?

I know some games allow controllers but I don't think we can do anything for that yet.

And yes, we can play steam games with Gear VR! :D!!
[Samsung Gear VR] Kokkie_81:
No problem?

I've connected my ds4 controller with my S7 so can play some games with it but I was wondering if it was also possible by using the gear vr to open normal apps like PlayStation remote and play as second screen with the gear vr
[Samsung Gear VR] darkphantom:
Yes, that would be very cool if there was a way but if you think about it from a technical perspective, you are changing the game resolution on the phone to split into two screens vs. streaming content which is easier to split into Side-by-side.

I will still keep hope, though! I know there is a way to play Android games on your phone...lol that would be too complicated:

Android -> to PC->stream back to phone in 3D
[Samsung Gear VR] jaredroid:
Not to mention the lag that would entail from multiple conversions...
[Samsung Gear VR] bovoro:
i will try this
[Samsung Gear VR] dokibull:
u can try this:

[Samsung Gear VR] jaredroid:
This is for rooted devices only. But it looks like it will work. Once I work up the nerve, and figure it how, to root my brand new GS7 I'll give it another shot. Thanks for the add!
[Samsung Gear VR] Kokkie_81:
Yes thanks but you have to have a rooted device
[Samsung Gear VR] jaredroid:
Notice they don't mention that in their app description in the play store?
[Samsung Gear VR] developweb:
Also not for an S6 apparently. Supports something like 11 devices.
[Samsung Gear VR] Tgrove88:
This is how

I have been playing emulator games in VR since yesterday (legend of dragoon, ff9), and even watched a little vr porn.

You need to get PACKAGE DISABLER PRO. It does cost $1.95, but its more than worth it. I registered just to post this so i cant link yet

Disable gear vr service, then you can do whatever you want in VR. This requires no root. Also apps that work with cardboard can work with hear vr. So in my case epsxe emulator has cardboard support, which means gear vr Support

Thank me later like drake
[Samsung Gear VR] developweb:
This is old news. Except the "do whatever you want in VR". Just isn't true.
[Samsung Gear VR] jaredroid:
Seems you missed the point of my original post. I realize I can port PC games to my phone for VR use, but I want to play games that are meant for android on my gear in the original format, just split screen for the image of a large screen directly in front of me. And what we're you talking about word-wrap? There's clearly a space between all of my words. Shall I double space for you next time?
[Samsung Gear VR] jaredroid:
Oh, great! I can imagine the s7 edge won't be one either then.
[Samsung Gear VR] darkphantom:
My apologies for misunderstanding, that native SBS app seems worthy but have not tried it with a rooted device yet. As for your word-space issue, I did not see any paragraphs so the sentences were hard to read. Good luck.
[Samsung Gear VR] smegg:
In case you also need a simple tool to switch between gear vr launcher and cardboard apps with one click and have root access on phone, i find this app useful and free..

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bartslab.gearvrcardboard
[Samsung Gear VR] jaredroid:
Sorry about the lack of paragraphs. I do all of my typing on my phone so I sometimes forget about that.
[Samsung Gear VR] ZenInsight:
I do have the gear VR and according to the internet posts if you have an Nvidia GPU that is a 600 series or newer you can use the side load VR app 2 allow streaming from your Windows PC into the screen projected inside the gear VR unit.

But just like the original poster this is not what I want to do. What I want to do is play other Android games inside of the gear VR. Like the way that you can watch a movie on the gear VR Netflix app. I just want to play a game on a 60-inch simulated screen inside of the gear VR. Has anyone seen a way to do this? I can't believe that this is not possible
[Samsung Gear VR] 82ross:
I know it's been a while since this was discussed but I only recently got a Gear VR and straight away looked to see if there was support for non native vr apps.

Basically we need a Virtual Desktop for VR. Displaying android apps on a virtual screen with touch input replaced with maybe look and tap. It might not be perfect for games but for other apps like Plex or Kodi it would be great. It could be years before they get native VR support.

Like Virtual desktop you could then add environment support etc. I highly recommend that program for rift/Vive owners.

Does anyone has any insight to development like this for gear vr? I know power gpu/cpu could be an issue. Maybe bluestacks could make a gear vr version.
[Samsung Gear VR] ZenInsight:
Well it would work perfectly for games that can use a controller like the Xbox 360 controller I use. Sine Mora is a flying shooter that is a perfect example of this.
[Samsung Gear VR] 82ross:
I did think about BT pads for games. They would work perfectly. I have a 8bitdo nes30 pro which I got recently which works for most things from the oculus home store.

I was preoccupied with non game apps when I was writing my last post as streaming from plex via a browser is less than ideal. :)
[Samsung Gear VR] sharxbyte:
This is a necro post, so sorry in advance, but you can easily use a micro usb male to standard female Adapter and still fit the device into most headsets. (Sorry I dont have a gear to test it in)

I use a USB mouse amd bluetooth keyboard to control my phone. As for splitscreen are there any updates on non rooted phones? It looks like ill need to just bite the bullet and root my note4...
[Samsung Gear VR] fiarfox888:
this app doesnt work on my phone 1.

and would it work cuse u could play real racing or my flight simultator with it just i would need a option to bind gyro with an mouse setting .. idk why there is no content to use that in a good way ;(
[Samsung Gear VR] virtualrealtiytips:
Well if it's not VR how you can play with VR

The possibility is if the developer develops it for Virtual Reality.

Then it's possible that you can play it.
[Samsung Gear VR] Smil0r:
Im interesting too.. cant we change the resolution lower with the half size of the display and copy the left side of the display like a mirror to the other side?
[Samsung Gear VR] Jaylaimay:
I hope SBS native supports le Max 2.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Massimiliano_C:
Hi, I have recently acquired (mid Sept. 2007) a TyTN II device: really a very good and nice device ... till yesterday.

Maybe my experience could be shared with some of you...

Yesterday my device suddenly turned off apparently because battery very low (i.e. less than 5% according to the manual): this is strange because as far as I remember my battery was charged enough to survive more than one day considering that I did not use Wifi/Bluetooth or many phone calls.

By the way, the problem occurred when I attempted to recharge the device: it spent hours under recharge but the power led never become green, but remained orange. I attempted anyway to startup the device, but as soon as the Windows OS started it automatically shutdown because battery too low was detected.

I performed several software reset and finally an hardware reset, while attempting also to recharge it also via USB but without any positive effect.

I contacted HTC which suggested me ... to provide back the device most likely for being replaced according to the DOA (Dead On Arrival) policy.

Please note that according to some tests I performed on the battery, this seems to be charged and the problem relying on the device or OS which do not recognize it as charged but so low that no operations are permitted.

Has some one experienced a similar issue with this new HTC device ?

Cheers,

Max
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Slade8525:
GF's 8125 did almost the same thing; wouldnt charge past 10% and kept sending notification after notification; this was literally right out of the box. Cingular/AT&T suspected the battery but replaced the 8125 as well.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MikeChannon:
So far I have not seen other reports of this for TyTn II. It is however a reasonably common problem with many different brands of phone.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] austinsnyc:
Could be a Power managment issue its not uncommen at all. things go wrong in all electronic devices think of the millions of Kaisers that will be sold in the coming months a few are bound to messed up from the factory. Its like buying a car you know ****s guna happen but you buy it anyway since it looks really nice that first day!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JwY:
Did you all charge using the supplied wallcharger instead of via USB?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] niccyk:
Make your kaiser power off, and use wallcharger. If it still doesn't work, call for HTC..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] deechte:
Some problems are solved by letting the internal battery drain, by leaving the device without the battery for a couple of days.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gogol:
That issue can happen if you (almost) run out of battery.

Best practice: NEVER EVER run down your battery below 5% ! As soon as it reach 10%, switch off if you dont have charger at that time.

You might go below 10%, but take the risk .... !

It is known to us that the new Windows Mobile 5.0 supports persistant memory (your data will not lost when the battery runs out 0%), but it does not say that you will not be able to charge the battery! :)

More explanation? And how to revive the battery?

Read this thread:

http://www.modaco.com/Warning-Battery-Chargin-t233233.html

It is well explained, how that happen and how to recover the battery :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jcespi2005:
ey man, i followed the recommended procedure for the three firsts battery charges. First i plug the PDA and let charge at 100%, then i let the battery goes to 0% (yes, the PDA goes off, of course) and then plugin onto the wall charger, and let charge to the 100%, repeating this procedure three times.

I do this also with my previous PDA, Hermes. And no problem leting the PDA going to 0%...never see this problem before.

What is the supossed problem leting the battery goes to 0%?

Regards.

EDIT: Found this interesting information about LiIon... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_ion_battery and http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gogol:
jcespi2005,

I simply dont know :) I just shared the link that I knew from modaco which is useful in this case.

Maybe this is not 100% the case, but as I said "best practice" ... something that it is better to follow to avoid this issue as you should read already that quite a lot of people affected by this very low depleted battery.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jcespi2005:
The modaco thread talks about Wizard, i think it's not 100% the same as Kaiser, cause is not the same battery, and the hard charge interface on the PDA can be different. I'm going to make a deep research about model and manufacturer for the Kaiser Battery, to see what can be the issue.

Anyway, i let my Kaiser goes 0% three times and charge fine for the three times. So i beleave the issue is not related with the battery itself. Can be the charger? don't know...

What is the model and manufacturer for your Kaiser battery, please?

Mine is Samsung model KAIS160.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gogol:
Just checked and I have the same battery, SAMSUNG KAIS160.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MikeChannon:
I have now seen another report on another forum with this problem (Kaiser). I suggested the standard method as used when the refusing to charge issue arose with the Hermes (TyTn).

(It worked by the way!)

i.e.

1

Remove the battery for half an hour or so

2

With the battery still removed connect and switch ON the official (1000mA) MAINS charger (Not other brands that deliver only 500mA)

3

Now insert the battery

4

Wait for up to 5 mins for the Red LED to change to Orange

Repeat steps 3 and 4 if you have no success after waiting for a reasonable time.

(If that fails then elsewhere I have reported the technique of delivering a charge to the battery using a couple of AA batteries)

My view for what it's worth:

Although in rare cases there may be a faulty battery, in the main the problem is not caused by the battery. The likely explanation is that the circuit that detects the battery's presence, fails to detect the battery when the battery charge is very low. In other words there is no problem with battery but the battery charge detection circuit is either frozen or does not switch on when the battery charge is too low.

This issue I see reported across many brands of phone and is not a WM specific problem.

Mike
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jcespi2005:
Many thanks for the information, this confirms my suspects about the interface to the battery, and not the battery itself... i see this issue time ago with one Nokia 6100, and solve it with the same procedure you write. Sometimes LiIon battery gain some charge if you place in the refrigerator for a while (cool helps LiIon batterys, and warm hurts).

Regards.

EDIT: More info about charging LiIon battery here http://www.batteryuniversity.com/partone-12.htm

Seems there is no need to make three charge/discharge cycle before use the LiIon battery. Simply you can use and charge in any moment. Really is better sorts and many charges rather than less and longs charges/discharges.

Power Failure.

Hi guys,

Well the USB did the trick.

Don't forget the Red Wire is the + (Positive)

and

the black Wire is the - (Negative).

A few minutes holding in place did the trick.

Thanks a lot for this thread, I actually had the feeling that I have lost the Kaiser.

Ronen
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] theromanone:
what USB trick? what wires, and where do you put them in the phone? thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] theromanone:
nevermind, just tried it and it definitely charged the phone, but when i then plugged it into the charger it the battery just decreased like before
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] irsw:
Hello,

Take a USB cable (the one like you use to sync your pda) cut it in the middle, expose the wires inside.

The red wire (+) is to be attached to the PLUS of the battery, and the balck wire (-) is to be attached to the minus of the battery.

About one minute and fater re-install the battery and try charging again, this should do the trick.

You can also use 2 AA batteries in the same manner.

Yours,

Ronen
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] trbal10:
just happened to mine after only a month. Contacted att and the forum and had to get it replaced. So far nothing wrong with this one!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] irsw:
Hi Mike,

Had my Kaiser sent to a lab, they are checking it but they are saying it is a faulty board.

The battery is ok although I bought a new one and tested it to find still the same problem.

Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
A lithium ion battery can be damaged if its voltage is allowed to drop too low. To prevent hazards, if the battery voltage goes too low, the charging circuit will not accept to charge it anymore.

Going down to 0% is not a problem is if you charge it straight away. But if you leave the battery empty for a long time, self-discharge will eat the little bit of marging between where the phone senses the battery is empty and turns off, and the point where the charging circuitry will refuse to charge the battery.

There was an issue with the Wizard where if your battery was to become empty during a call (where current drain is high and very varying), the phone would let the battery discharge too much before shutting off, which left the battery unchargeable. It happened to me a couple of times, and all my friends who had one also experienced it at least once. The solution was to recharge the battery a few minutes using an external charger (I have R/C aircraft models, in which we use various types of batteries including lithuium ones, and we have chargers that support them all) until the voltage is high enough for the phones charging circuitry to allow charge again. My friends always were thankful not to have to buy new batteries each time...

EDIT: Meh, didn't see the topic had multiple pages and that post was so old... nevermind, still valid, might help someone one day ;)

Mi3 ROMs work on the Mi4, right?

Could Mi4C ROMs work on the 4S?

-Same chipset (SD808@1.8GHz)

- Same display (1080p, 5inch, 441ppi, IPS)

- Same camera (13 MP, f/2.0)

The only differences would be the fingerprint sensor and the battery, which shouldn't be a big problem.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] alexvv:
hardware wise the most notable differences are the 64gb of inbuilt storage in mi4s (vs 32), the ability to have an sd card and the fingerprint scanner... few differences but enough to require a developer porting the mi4c roms to mi4s... don't try installing any mi4c roms on mi4s.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Fsu0413:
it seems so...

they use same kernel source and the same configuration on building the kernel.

There is a post on the chinese MIUI forum whose poster flashed the offical Mi 4c MIUI on Mi 4s and it runs as normal except for the fingerprint.
