[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] englishbob2:
Hello,

I've been trying to compile a driver to the stock kernel of my S3. I've ensured that I have the correct kernel version and have done a modinfo on the compiled driver to check the version magic string is correct. However I can't insmod the driver. I am root on the device when I try to do so.

I've managed to do this on other brands of phone which leads me to wonder if the S3 default kernel config from the open source repository correctly reflects .config that was actually used for the release kernel on the phone.

Is it possible to develop drivers for the stock kernel? (3.0.31-2788594, build number JSS15J.I9300XXUGNJ2 in my case). Does anyone have a correct .config for this kernel build?

regards,

Rob
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] marcelol:
Has anyone encountered issues with Bluetooth where the headset will spuriously, and for not reason disconnect from the GNote 5, and then reconnect.

Or.....if the headset is connected, that if you start a call, as the call starts to dial, Bluetooth will disconnect on the call, and you have to manually select Bluetooth again for the audio to get redirected to your headset?

I noticed this a few times on Lollipop, but now that the MM update has come down for the GNote 5, it happens....A LOT. Has anyone encountered this issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Compusmurf:
Didn't have it with lollipop, but am with Marshmallow. I'm stock too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TeamHackura:
I been having a problem on marshmallow with audio routing. It will stay connected to Bluetooth headset but if you check audio path it has gone back to note 5 instead of Bluetooth device. You can manually switch it back or just reconnect but it's annoying to have it start playing on loud speaker with my headphones on trying to be quiet lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] str0ng3st:
Has anyone found a solution to this issue? Sprint Note 5 owner here and my phone's Audio Path switches on its own regularly. Always after I've completed a phone call and sometimes for no reason at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TeamHackura:
It's quite messy. Still having this issue. Been on forever loco breakdown and tekhd ROMs
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
Do any of you guys having the issue have android smart watches?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TeamHackura:
I have a pebble first gen smart watch.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
The reason I ask is because when I leave my android watch at home. The Android Wear app is constantly trying to connect unless I tell it to stop. What in turn happens is that it is constantly causing me to disconnect from my bluetooth audio devices.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TeamHackura:
Hmmm. Pebble requires the Android wear app be installed but you never have to open it.

I have a pebble first gen smart watch.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
And even then I only have the issue when i forget to bring my watch with me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TeamHackura:
Interesting. I can't say mine is dependent on pebble being connected or not but I'll monitor.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] obk88:
Got my phone on April 29th only received one update so far which was on launch day. Im on 1.21.666.1

I was wondering if i can use the htc unlocked NA RUU from their website to upgrade my firmware?

Contacted bell about the update they have no clue...i dont think they are selling well in Canada...i dont think they are taking the firmware update seriously so i was looking at other options.

I would really appreciate it if someone can help me

Thank You

***RECEIVED THE OTA UPDATE IN THE MORNING MAY 26TH***
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] malek777:
Until rogers and telus picks up this phone, updates are going to be slow. I heard they might in june but from the slow sales there's a possibility they won't.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] obk88:
the exclusivity ends on july 1st...hopefully Rogers picks it up...i think its selling decent in the US but its out on more carriers as well
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] malek777:
Agreed. A price drop would be nice too. Telus is the quickest so far with the updates. I'm personally waiting for the htc nexus hopefully killer hardware and software at a reasonable price.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] obk88:
yeah the htc nexus will be a killer phone the 10 has been amazing so far just the update is annoying me and htc is not blame for that!
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] malek777:
Does the htc come with the headphones like the international model?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] obk88:
No headphones but i got my own bose ones

Hi how was the 1.53 update for you... I'm sceptical sometimes of updates... So just wondering if you feel your phone is better performance after installing the update or not? Appreciate any opinion on this thanks!
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Haldi4803:
Hello,

I've placed my old Bootanimation.zip which I used for my Xperia Z2 Into System/Media. There was no existing Bootanimation.zip so i guess HTC handles this somehow else.

Does anyone have a Template for the HTC10 how a correct .zip should look like? Full 2560x1440 pictures?

Sadly the old one was centered and looked horrible :(

Here it is on the Xperia :)

[Microsoft Lumia 950/950 XL] citrix80:
I bought lumia 950XL when it was first released. At that time it was only sold through Microsoft store online. I found out that when I turn the power off, the 3 on screen navigation key turn on then battery become hot, the 3 key stay light up, and I have to keep hold the power key to force the phone tunn on again, then battery drop almost 3-4 percent in less than 2 minutes, at that rate 30 minutes would down 20-30%. I contacted support and they told it could be a hardware problem and at time Microsoft halted sales because of untold hardware problem, only option is return the handset.

I couldn't wait so I bought one ebay. It is a HK version single sim. I found the same problem again. I contacted support and they said it is HK version not supported in US. HK supported I have to ship it to HK shipping then send to repair center. The problem there is not only high shipping cost, the process would take long time.

Last week I went to a Microsoft store in a mall. I told them the problem, and they nicely give me new US unit and took my HK version. At the store the phone was charging use charger from the box, the has no problem.

This time again the I found same problem on the 3rd unit.

This is really strange. At home, I always charge the phone on PC use this cable came with a USB type C hard drive enclosure. I charged the phone with charger come with box, the phone would turn off completely, battery stay cold. I don't know what happened. Then I used the USB cable from the box, plug on PC, the phone would turn off completely no problem.

The phone behave like this because of the cable or it designed this way? or is it bug?

any suggestion ??
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] ashwinpilgaonkar:
Hey guys!

I'm learning Android app development and decided to put the skills I learnt to some use, so here it is-

This app is for people like me who prefer the higher exposure time of the Stock HAL in low light (brighter and less noisy photos), but at the same time want to use all the features of Sultan's HAL like 4K video, etc.

It can also be used if you want to compare the two HALs or decide to revert to Stock in the future (no need to dirty flash your ROM now!).

Features:

Switch between Stock and Sultan's HAL on the fly (no reboot required!)

Backup and restore Stock HAL files (no need of a revert zip now)

Launch your default Camera from within the app

Should work on all ROMs 5.1.1 and above (EDIT: It doesn't seem to be working on OOS. Will try to fix it in the near future).

Will even work when Sultan updates his HAL

WARNING: This app is designed to run only on a rooted OPX running Android 5.1.1 and above. It might break your camera if used on any other phone!

Installation Instructions:

Install the APK file

Dirty flash your current ROM (only if you have already flashed Sultan's HAL)

Press the Backup button in the app (Status should say "Not Installed" at this time)

Flash Sultan's HAL zip from recovery

Usage:

If you're performing a clean ROM install in the future, be sure to hit the backup button within the app before flashing Sultan's HAL.

If Sultan releases an update to his HAL, be sure to switch to his HAL from within the app before flashing the updated zip.

If for whatever reason you encounter any issues, dirty flash your ROM and follow the Installation instructions again. This should fix them.

Credits:

[MENTION=4800121]Sultanxda[/MENTION] for his awesome HAL!

Note: Neither Stock HAL files nor Sultan's HAL files are included in this app

Any bug fixes, feature requests and reviews are always welcome (I'll be working on it only when I have free time).

Finally, it goes without saying- I'm not responsible for any damage whatsoever caused to your device by using this app!

Great application and idea, good job, but for some reason when switching to stock HAL my camera apps stop working. I was following your instructions and flashed HAL after installing the app and backuping the old HAL. Any suggestions?
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] LolHacker17:
Wht if im usimg sultanrom?
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] ckret:
WOW

nice idea.

Love it!
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] ashwinpilgaonkar:
No, this wont work if you're using Sultan's ROM as it comes with the custom HAL pre installed. You would have to manually copy the Stock HAL files from CM13 for it to work.

Does this only happen when switching to Stock HAL? It works fine for me.

Which ROM are you using?

Try dirty flashing it and following the instructions once again.
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] JG:
where does it backup stock camera hal to?
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] ashwinpilgaonkar:
It creates a copy with the extension of .stock in the same directory where it is originally located.
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] mindphuq:
It only works with Sultan HAL and when switching to stock HAL, camera stops working. I am on CM13 Official latest nightly with bluspark kernel, xposed and supersu 2.65. First time I've tried it I had OOS 3.0.1 camera installed from the other thread. Then I dirty flashed without installing that camera and tried your app with the stock google camera from opengapps, still no luck. I really, really want this working on my phone :)
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] ashwinpilgaonkar:
I have the same ROM and kernel as you and it's working fine for me. It doesn't look like anyone else is having any issues either.

Send me a screen record of the entire process. I maybe able to figure out whats going wrong.
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] Matthius:
This is great in theory and i've waited for something like this to hopefully be made in which I am very greatful for. However, I'm on rooted OOS 2.2.0 with Blue spark and the same issue occurs for me - It says action performed successfully when applying the Stock HAL, but when launching the camera app it says "Unknwon error".

I have tried clearing cache and data for the stock camera app, but no luck.
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] mindphuq:
Same problem as him - "Unknown Error" in OOS camera and "Can't connect to the camera" in google camera. Tried cleaning cache aswell, even tried with cleaning davlik/cache after installing sultan HAL.

For some reason my screen recorder cuts the videos before I can't record everything, so I can't provide a video. I can extract logs or something if you need them?
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] Matthius:
Yeah my recorder stops too. Here's error though after applying https://youtu.be/ivviaicSa4I
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] Kéno40:
Maybe a direct option to clear "camera App" data (not onlycache) could help.

I'm trying the MOD right now.

Edit : same problem for me.

I had to wipe camera app data, , launch it from drawer and then it worked.

Without that, camera app couldn't be launched from Hal Switcher.
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] Matthius:
I just tried this, still doesn't work for me unfortunately.

It doesn't matter what app it is so therefore I presume it's not just the stock camera app it's to do with something technical that can hopefully be fixed with a bit of tweaking.
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] mindphuq:
Doesn't work with clearing app data for me aswell.
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] Kéno40:
Root ok on your app?
[OnePlus X Themes and Apps] Matthius:
What do you mean?

Nothing on the app seems to indicate if root access is okay.

Thoughts?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vPro97:
Hello.

I've had a LG G2 for 2.5 years and it's been a great phone. Unfortunately I'm starting to have issues with the microphone and the phone probably needs to be replaced in the not too distant future.

I am currently in a situation where I honestly am not in a rush to buy a new phone, I prefer to have the latest and greatest (because it generally holds up better over the years) and I want a phone that'll serve me for another 2-3 years.

The Nexus 6P has a lot going for it, the display, the stereo speakers, the buttery smooth UI, sleek design and fingerprint scanner.

On the flip side, I find it a bit too big (but I can manage it) and I'm worried about how well the phone will age. I don't have much faith in the Snapdragon 810. Is it still worth buying or am I better off waiting for the next generation?

The Nexus 6p costs $630 here. I've had a look at the newest 2016 flagships and only HTC 10 caught my attention, but the price of the phone is an outrageous $830 and I cannot justify spending so much.

So, should I hop on the Nexus 6P wagon or wait for the next generation?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joooe:
I'd say for you to wait. But for what? I don't see any flagships phones to be announced. Don't know. Maybe the next Nexus? Surely will be a few months away.

The CPU is not that important. At least for me. If I'd buy the Nexus 6P at this time. Probably yes, for the price and updates.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] logic88:
I upgraded last month to a 6P but that's because my N5 was on it's last legs and there was a sale ($500 for a 64GB 6P and they throw in a $50 gift card so it's effectively $450).

I would have waited for a 820-based 6P but it's unclear if Google will really release such a beast. I wanted a Nexus device to ensure updates for a few years so I ended pulling the trigger on the 6P when the sale was announced.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
The other device to look at would be the Moto X Pure.

Processor is slower but here in the states a 64GB version for $399.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vPro97:
Another option came up, the Samsung Galaxy S7 for $680 - so $50 more.

The S7 has a lot going for it, like the more wieldy size, better display, good camera, waterproofing (which is more of a nice-to-have sort of thing). On the other hand I will be missing out on the quick Android updates and the stock android experience and I will get the TouchWiz UI, which I don't mind (I've been living with G2's UI for 2.5 years which isn't much better...) and I'll be missing out on the stereo speakers.

The Moto X Style is really nice, but if the SD 810 has me worried, how about the 808? I like the looks of the Moto X Style but the SD 808 and bad battery life is a deal breaker, even at the $420 price tag.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jammol:
Had to get the 6P for Fi. Happy with it. I was holding out for I/O 2016 in hopes they would announce a mid year fresh with better CPU but no such thing happened. Oh well. This phone is pretty chill for me.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shriom_manerker:
oh man we are in the exact same situation here ! literally ! G2 802 owner here. i was running exodus 6.0.1. it will keep you going for a little while but with lack of good camera features. i will be pulling the trigger on the 6p soon. it costs 594$ here if bought from play devices (play store), but in third party e commerce sites its about 475.. the prices will drop soon. currently its at its lowest price here. once it hits the 400$ barrier im picking it up for sure ! guaranteed updates for next 2-3 years officially :) another thought is that . what if the next nexus is actually cheaper than the current 6p ? (in terms of initial pricing). itll be like we bought the old device for just 10-15$ more or something.. hence till my g2 is going good, i can keep it on hold. i suggest you do the same . head over to cheapass.in , here you can track prices of the links posted from e commerce sites and it will tell mail you to inform you the price drop :) ive been following the 6p for a while now.

If I would to buy it now I would do it. I got mine in January and no had no problems with it at all. i get good battery life and with the improvements android N it will be better in my opinion. I been using a V10 a few weeks as I got it for my backup/media phone since it has a sd card and while i like it especially cause the camera will be great for the future...i returned back to the 6P yesterday and i forgot how much i love it. great screen and i forgot how awesome those speakers are. the moto x pure might be a little better but still the 6P speakers are great. my only gripe is that i wish google would be a damn sd card slot but i know it will never happen but i can dream.

Would love to know how you're managing that... I'm lucky to get over 4 hours on anything from stock to custom ROMs and kernels with Greenify, Xposed, etc. Never play games, only browsing, texting, music, and small YouTube bits here and there. My battery life has never been that great on any device like some people claim.

Only rooted. Ad blocker installed. Disabled all non essential Google apps (Chrome, Drive, Movies and TV, Books, Games, and Photos). I use Tinfoil for Facebook instead of the stock app and Opera Mini. I don't need emails delivered immediately so all syncing is turned off. And turned off Googles 'Back up my data' in Backup and Reset since there seems to be a bug with it eating away battery in some of the other forums. I don't need Google Now and disabled the voice activation in Search. At this very moment, I've got 7.5 SOT with 12% battery left.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raoufsb:
We are literaly in the same exact situation, I've had my G2 for about 2 years now and I recently rooted it and flashed Google Edition 1.5 ROM + Dorimanx kernel which kinda revived my phone and Its now way smoother with better battery life, that being said I cant see myself keeping this phone after the summer's done and I've been looking for a potential replacement. The HTC 10 looks perfect on paper: similar size, better specs, better build quality but since it just came out Its too expensive for me, looking at last year's flagships the nexus 6p seems the best of the lot but it's just so damn big and my hands are kinda small. At this point I really cant decide if I should get a 6P in like August or wait a year or so until I can afford the HTC 10.Btw if anybody knows some other reasonably priced 5.2-5.3 inch phone with atleast 3 gigs of ram and a cpu equivalent to a 810 please let me know.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitemare3219:
I had an HTC 10, 6P, and S7 Edge all at the same time. I currently only have the 6P and S7 Edge - trying to decide which to keep.

The 10 was a good phone. But here's what killed it for me... the LCD and the size, mostly. The LCD is great for an LCD. But it's still an LCD, and it's terrible compared to OLED. The 6P and S7E are just so much better to look at, even in sRGB modes where they aren't oversaturated. Having pure black is something most people don't appreciate until they see it on a 55"+ TV in front of them. I have a $4,000 4K OLED TV, and I can never go back. The same holds true with even a small smartphone display - you use the display more than anything. It better look damn good. Also, even if I could get past the contrast, there were 2 other major issues I had with it. Number 1, the motion blur was TERRIBLE! It might not actually be that bad in the LCD world, but OLED has practically instant pixel response. That in itself removes a LOT of motion blur until we get 120+Hz smartphone panels - it's coming, just you wait! Also, the 10's display had a pink/red tint to it, 24/7. Holding it next to the 6P or S7E, this was obvious. And after years of having large phablets, I really couldn't go back to using a 5.2" screen.

Everything else about the 10 is something to love. The design is incredible. The camera is great. The DAC/amp are great. The speakers were great. The speed of the device, the factory go-ahead to root/unlock, the fingerprint sensor, the feel in the hand... all awesome. But none of these good qualities could make up for its worst, and that was the display.
