[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] tchudson:
Okay, here's the story. My Nexus 7 Gen 2 went into the water for half an instant. However, when I tried to turn it off immediately, it wouldn't turn off. I put it in a container of rice for a couple of days and eventually, it turned off - the battery died, I'm sure. Anyway, now, when I plug in the charger, I get the battery charging symbol, however, it will still not turn on. I've tried some of the button combos mentioned (hold power for 30 seconds, hold power and volume up for 3-5 seconds, hold power and volume down for 15 seconds, even hold power for 2 minutes), yet nothing seems to work. But as soon as I unplug it and plug it back in the charge symbol appears. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Chris

Okay, read some more on here and got it into boot load mode. Pressing the up arrow puts the start arrow at the top of the screen pointing to the power button, the down arrow "restart bootloader", however, pressing the power button does nothing.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] graphdarnell:
If you put the tab in the rice container without removing the back, you don't know if all the moisture that seeped in has been removed. You need to disassemble the thing, dry each and every component inside with a blow dryer ( both sides of the electronic boards) to make sure of that. Thereafter, you can try again. Because even if you succeed in flashing the OS anew, you'll never know when the residual moisture will interfere or affect the components again.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] tchudson:
I didn't use a blowdryer, but it sat out on a table with the back off for about 24 hours and I do live in southern Colorado in the high desert, so humidity isn't a huge factor. I may give that a try today, though. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
I'm afraid some corrosion has set in already and it may not be reliable anymore.

Next time, you should immediately disassemble it and disconnect the battery, then use a hairdrier to remove the moisture ASAP.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] tchudson:
So, given that it will open into the reboot screen and the volumen buttons seem to work but the power button itself doesn't work, could it be possible to replace the power and volume buttons and get it to restart? Just wondering if I can manage to salvage this thing.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
Yes, try to replace or test with multimeter the control buttons assembly first but if it does not help then remove the motherboard and its shields, and check it for any visible signs of corrosion. Scratching off a conductive corrosion layer may fix it.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] rubberwheels:
I have noticed several things with my S7 Edge. Had it since it's release day.

The Wifi network available notification keeps popping up when I don't have service.

I have already turned off the setting for it under, Settings-->WiFi-->Advanced--->Network Notification--->OFF. But it keeps popping up.

Sometimes the vibration intensity for notifications get turned off on their own. So all text messages become silent.

Am I the only one experiencing this problem?

[Google Chromecast] kezzsim:
Hello everyone!

I like to work with LED signs and other fun display technologies and as much as I love my chromecast audio, sadly it has no way of displaying what it is currently playing. Now I know that this information must be somewhat publicly available because the Chromecast app for android can show me what content is playing from Spotify, even if the session is initiated by another client as you can see here:

(Well I can't post images because I'm a new user, use your imagination to see that I can start playing something from Spotify on another device and I'm still able to get cover art, title and artist name here in this native android chromecast app)

Anyway, I'm having trouble devising a way to fetch this information from the Chromecast, I'd really love to send it to some digital signage so I can keep tabs on what's playing, even if that's just say - a raspberry pi with an old VFD attached. So far I was able to use the node chromecast-cli to grab some rudimentary information from the device when it's playing stuff from Spotify. Here's what I get:

Komputer$ node chromecast-cli.js --host [IPaddress] status
{ applications:
[ { appId: 'CC32E753',
displayName: 'Spotify',
isIdleScreen: false,
namespaces: [Object],
sessionId: 'C6A14255-0DE0-44DE-9A06-BC9D07D33A53',
statusText: 'Spotify',
transportId: 'web-3' } ],
volume:
{ controlType: 'attenuation',
level: 0.7843137383460999,
muted: false,
stepInterval: 0.05000000074505806 } }

so um, most of this status information is painfully redundant, displayName and StatusText are both just 'Spotify' and right now I can't see any useful information about what's playing. So I'm left to assume that the namespaces object is encoded as JSON and potentially contains what I'm looking for, but I'm not sure as to how to actually get it and extract it and put it to good use - or I could be totally wrong and that contains nothing useful. Go figure, but either way I suppose someone here might have the experience needed here to shake this information out of the thing. This might only be pertinent to Spotify, but that's what I use 90% of the time so it's good either way, there might be a more generic string that can be fetched for whatever is playing. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
[Google Chromecast] ajhsu:
I found the other library call castnow (github.com/xat/castnow) does the same thing as chromecast-cli, but it will showing Chromecast's current status, which includes duration, playhead time and the source of current playing. So I think you can make your own hook based on this library. Hope that helps.
[Google Chromecast] kezzsim:
Okay I'll look into it, hopefully it's a bit easier to query than the Python tool I've been using lately.

Thanks!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wally_tm:
Hi,

My question is maybe no to easy as it seams to be:

I'm looking for app ( or some system hack with system time queue ) that will give me simple ability to switch OF data connections ( 2G & 3G ) for peak times mon - friday 6:50 - 19:10 .....

There are to reasons for this:

- MONEY ! because I'm with orange, I only got off-peak & weekend free browsing, so downloading lots of mails durning day can be a bit paint full for wallet

- I'm working in company that deal with RF equipment - so - site is placed in the middle of nowhere + extra signal isolation to avoid to many radio interferences to get into building ;X - equals - BIIIGGGG battery drain on any connection attempts.

I'm using my personal exchange server to synchronize my mails with few mailboxes and my mobile - and active sync setting for off-peak / peak actually prevents mobile from downloadind mails from server - OK but it keeps connection alive and if server respond to mobile that new mail is avaible for downloading ( direct push - M$ way to implement IMAPv4.1 idle command with active sync add-ons ) mobile is often responding with "sorry I don't want this mail now, I'll process it in future", and goes bac kto 480 second indle and repeats story over and over ( tcpdupm on server ;DDDD ) - generating a bit more movement that ordinary idle without new mail. Beside when active sync goes into "off-peak" state it doesn't disconnect device - so when it will lose connection it will desperately try to re-establish new one.

I was trying already Commmgr Pro, and I was really satisfied with this, until I've realised that I can't set peak days only at week days

Also I don't want this app to kill tcp stack ( if there is such ) because, I'm often connecting in my work through pc to my exchange ( by active sync on local machine ).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] urmelchen:
Try PhoneWeaver. It does what you are looking for.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wally_tm:
Thank You ! I'm currently using this app for second day and it works like a charm ! I've had few problems with seting up ( I was trying setting, by manualy starting profiles, but when I;ve left it on auto it works perfectly ;D )

If nobody have any other examples, then it will be my choice !

Cheers mate !
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mecllynx:
Hey guys I recently installed a custom rom on my Moto G 2nd and everything has been great so far except for one thing:

I'm am now unable to save/download files directly to my external SD card. I use a download manager to DL stuff and before the ROM (4.4.4 -> 6.0.1) I had no trouble picking out the folder in my SD card and saving it there.

After the update it asked me to give permissions, but now it fails to create a file every time and I have to DL it o my internal memory then cut+paste using a file manager after its done downloading.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Re-flash the stock ROM via MiFlashTool & select "Flash All" option else do a full factory reset.
[HTC One A9] CSnowRules:
I believe it is possible. I've been working on a method to unbrick our devices, using the Qualcomm diagnostic interface. Someone over at the oneplus forums has managed to do it with their devices. I haven't completed the method yet. Also, I don't have a bricked A9 to test on, since I won't intentionally brick mine. Do you have a copy of the partition table layout for your A9?

I need internal memory dump of HTC One A9 Sprint (modelid: 2PQ930000 cidnum: SPCS_001 mainver: >=1.57.651.1)

need first 1167 MB (2392030 blocks) to include boot and recovery partitions. + 100 MB for insurance (1267 MB totally).

Trying to boot from an external SD card.

Thanx to CSnowRules who gave me dump of his HTC One A9 ATT.

With his dump I was able to change 9008 state (pure PBL) to 900E (probably one of SBL's on Ext SD).

Now original HTC One A9 Sprint image is my last chance. I will be very grateful.
[HTC One A9] mcbright80:
If all you need now is a system image to flash....I already posted that, firmware, boot and recovery on the RUU Collection area. I'm curious....as I have not completely bricked my A9....if your phone is blacked out and wont turn on, how exactly would you be able to boot it from your SD? Was it also not registering via USB under fastboot after your attempt?

Sprint 1.60.651.4

https://1drv.ms/f/s!AtVcVcbLOGTdgP9-e2NAN2fNHHIKVQ
[HTC One A9] bogdan#:
Phone is not visible via fastboot / adb, so I can not flash any RUU image or standalone partition image. Most probably that partition table in internal memory is broken, and phone stuck in PBL mode (Primary BootLoader, memory partition with bootable code inside of msm chip), which is visible through usb as "qualcomm 9008 com port".

I have information about other qaulcomm based phones in similar condition were revived with bootable sd card. The idea is that when emmc memory is not accessible or not bootable, msm chip trying to use sd card as internal memory, so i can boot into adb mode and get access to emmc as external memory.

I am not sure if it would work with htc a9, but I already tried internal memory image of HTC One A9 ATT and it changed state to 900E and programm emmcdl.exe recognized it as SBL(Secondary BootLoader) mode, which means that booting from sd card is happening, but stopping on some step probably because of wrong signature (HTC One A9 ATT GSM vs HTC One A9 Sprint CDMA).
[HTC One A9] mcbright80:
I see, I see......interesting! Well, hopefully you can pull it off. Let me know if you need an Internal Memory Dump still and I'll send you one. Thanks for the insight on that issue in case i ever have the same someday. ^_^

[HTC One A9] bogdan#:
Unfortunately this files are not what I am looking for. I need image of a whole internal disk (first 1300MB, system.img and userdata could be excluded) I would be grateful if you make it. Here is the instruction:

0. Your phone has to be rooted and S-OFF (may be), USB debugging ON. On your computer has to be installed HTC drivers and ADB.

1. Insert SD card with at least 1400MB free to phone.

2. Connect phone to computer.

3. run this commands in windows cmd.exe:

adb shell
su /*accept request of gettint root on your phone.*/
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/dump.img bs=512 count=2596830

4. after command complete take file dump.img from sd card and archive it.

[HTC One A9] bogdan#:
I hope you get well
[HTC One A9] mcbright80:
Thanks man, I am well enough at least...problem here...im somewhere in the middle with my own exp and knowledge on doing things here and one place i still lack sorely is with ADB. i know fastboot and many other like command tools like the back of my hand....adb however always seemed to not quite work ever for my needs so gave up on it once i found better ways to get what i needed. That being said, i can never get most of the adb commands to work EVER. So entering the commands i know already that you also posted still wont fly as the errors i keeps getting block any further attempts. Perhaps you can assist....so Ive tried running adb in terminal when phone is booted to no avail. Never seems to find adb like its missing from some directory or install location from the error i sometimes receive and as far as i know there isn't some adb app specifically to install so im stumped on that. Only place i can seem to ever get adb to do more than say error not found or something is when booted into recovery.....usb debugging is on etc, I open cmd prompt whereever my adb/fastboot stuff is located like platform tools on my desktop, then adb devices i input which always shows my phone and stating in recovery. Ive read if you have problems mounting system to type in adb remount before starting shell and then i type in adb shell and i get this:

C:\Users\brigh\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools>adb remount

remount succeeded

C:\Users\brigh\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools>adb shell

~ # [6nsu

/sbin/sh: su: not found

~ # [6nadb remount

/sbin/sh: adb: not found

~ # [6n

So i dont know what the gobbledegook that is displayed after starting shell is about.....long ago i remember it would just be the hashtag right? well type in su then says its not found...and cant remount....STILL somehow i just typed in the command to get the dump img and seems to have worked although im dubious of its efficacy So let me know either way. Sorry for the long wait...really.

Dear all :o

After using the S7 Edge for several weeks from the transfer of my OnePlus 2. I noticed that we can't directly bypass our lockscreen without having the screen to first be lit up, which is an extra step unlocking the device. Phones like the OnePlus 2 unlocks immediately once a fingerprint is detected.

Could this function possibly be ventured or is there already some sort of modules out there that performs the same task?

Thanks!

Cheers and regards,

From "screen off" screen, press and hold Home button. Assuming you use finger to unlock your phone. And phone unlocks.

If you click and hold, you end up at the home screen. You can also click, then let the button up while keeping your finger on the sensor. The phone will unlock and remain on the previous screen instead of always going to the home screen.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Beefheart:
There is a way of doing this, but it's a side effect of a bug in an Xposed module. Install Fingerprint Enabler 1.0.3 and enable it in Xposed installer. You can then unlock the phone without pressing the home button. The downside is that this happens because the fingerprint service is always running, waiting for a fingerprint to read. This means the phone never goes into deep sleep, even with the screen off so it's not worth the downside for me. Also, when using the phone, you will get a vibration when you accidentally touch the reader with a finger that has not been set up.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] lvnatic:
Where did you people come with the idea that you have to keep pressing the button? Ever since I got the phone back on apc8, I always opened the phone by pressing the home button once, and still keep my finger on the button so the fingerprint gets registered, I never had to keep holding it pressed.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] rpsgrayfox:
Hey XDA.

So I'm guessing I'm not the only one wondering if the OnePlus 3 benefits or not from coming with storage encryption by default as per Android Marshmallow OEM requirements. So I put a little experiment together and decided to share my results with the XDA OP3 community.

Disclaimer

None of the results here should be taken as an absolute, as always these tests are flawed and should be taken with a grain of salt, the whole idea of this was to see if disabling encryption would boost "performance" on the device.

Testing Methodology

To attempt to reduce differences that could affect results between both testing scenarios (Encryption enabled and disabled) I followed a set of rules perfoming these tests:

Both scenarios had the phone with the same amount of data that is to say, same apps installed and files on sdcard as to replicate results on an equal and real environemnt (not freshly restored device with no data or apps)

Tests were run back to back for each set of tests. after the first set (Boot Time) there was a 3 minute period for the phone to cool down before perfoming the second set (Antutu) etc.

First all tests were run with encryption enabled after disabling encryption and restoring all apps and data a period of time (5-6min) was taken to ensure device was cool again before tests for the second scenario were started.

Boot Time was done by starting timer as soon as power button was held and holding until OnePlus Logo and Name appeared on screen, timer was stopped as soon as Lockscreen rendered.

Results

Conclusion

Obviously this will not replicate the same experience anyone can have so I encourage anyone to reply to this thread with their personal experience on the matter, what is your opinion on encryption? and if you find this post helpful somehow remember to hit the thanks button on my post or any other user that replies helpfully to you. Thanks.
