[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
Anyone else having these problems? I got the Samsung Pay beta link in my Gear app, it installed the app on the watch (bluetooth classic) and on my Note 4 phone, but when I try to get it to work, I've run into a wall: on the phone side, after I enter my credit card info, after it tries to confirm it, I get a notification saying "Gear not responding. Try again." (And trying again does not work.)

On the watch side, if I long press the back key to initiate Samsung Pay, I dial through the set of instructions and press the "Start using Samsung Pay now" arrow on the last screen, I get a screen saying "Access denied. An unauthorized modification has been detected. Samsung Pay Gear will be initialized."

I've done soft and hard resets, deleted and reinstalled the Gear app on the phone, no change. And I wasted a couple of hours with various branches of Samsung's support folks, mostly explaining to them stuff I knew that they didn't. Any help would be appreciated, especially if you've tried and succeeded in getting Samsung Pay Gear to work with a Note 4 phone. Thanks all.
[Samsung Gear S2] cwb1231:
I hit reset on the Samsung pay beta screen within the gear app. That cleared the settings and now it works
[Samsung Gear S2] pokergooch:
same issues
[Samsung Gear S2] cwb1231:
I had the same problem with loading 2 cards then later on errors. The reset worked. Also Samsung pay isn't like the other apps we load. It has a connection to the firmware loaded on the watch
[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
Thanks for the responses. The reset in the Samsung Pay beta screen did not help for me, but it will probably help for someone. Are either of you using a Note 4, by any chance? If so, what firmware are you on on the watch? (I'm in the NE US, and the latest firmware update hasn't rolled out here yet.)

So nobody else has seen this?:
[Samsung Gear S2] cwb1231:
I have s7 in CT and am on cpc5 on the watch (classic)
[Samsung Gear S2] cwb1231:
Did you check if all the WF cards are NFC/Samsung pay approved for watch. I found out from Citi that my. AA visa card is not approved for SP
[Samsung Gear S2] mobeast17:
Mines the same thing. I have the non 4g classic version. And using a galaxy s7 edge
[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
Well, if you're getting the same "access denied" screen with your S7 Edge then I guess it's not simply that I'm on a Note 4. Have you been able to try another phone to see if there's something about the phone that's causing the problem?
[Samsung Gear S2] mobeast17:
It's the only phone I have at the moment. Spoke with Samsung pay support and he gave me the normal run around about resetting it and all that. Which I already did before I called. Then he stated maybe because I didn't have the update that is supposedly out. Which my watch still didn't get.
[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
Yeah my experience is that Samsung Support in general is a black hole of polite cliches. I'm trying to get this case bumped to another level via email, so far with no success. (And while it's possible that the firmware update would fix it -- I haven't gotten it yet either -- there are clearly folks who've got SP working without the update. So there's some kind of gremlin somewhere.
[Samsung Gear S2] mobeast17:
Yeah I'm sure the update would help. But you're right. I've seen so many ppl without it have it work perfectly
[Samsung Gear S2] Bucky208:
How to get Samsung Pay

Offtopic: How do you get Samsung Pay on the smartwatch? I know it is in beta, but where can i find the app?

I have a Galaxy Alpha, Samsung Pay is not supported yet on this smartphone, does that mean i won't be able to use my gear to pay?

Kind regards!
[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
If your phone and location -- it's U.S. only, afaik -- are eligible for the SP beta, when you run the Gear manager on your phone, there will be a "Samsung Pay Beta" option on the first screen. (Make sure your Gear manager app is the latest version available.)
[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
FWIW, I finally got the S2 firmware update, and it did not solve the "Access Denied" on watch/"Your Gear is not responding" on phone errors. A week ago, Samsung support finally emailed me that "We have escalated this issue to our appropriate department for further review and consideration." But I have heard nothing since. Let's hope somebody's working on it.
[Samsung Gear S2] mobeast17:
Same here. Got the update this morning. Was hoping that it fixed it. Nothing. I get the same error messages as you. Lets hope man. I was really looking forward to using it in the gear
[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
Can I ask when you bought your watch?

Trying to chase down a possible cause of this problem: I noticed over on Samsung's website under registered devices that they think I purchased the watch in Jan. '16, when I actually bought it in Oct. '15. Someone over on the Samsung community forum with the same "access denied" bug has a similar confusion about purchase dates, who also bought just after it was released. I'm wondering if the discrepancies might be making the security system for Pay on the watch freak out.
[Samsung Gear S2] mobeast17:
As soon as the classic released I got it. Not sure when that exactly was last year, August? Or September
[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
OK, then, that's three of us with the same problem with very early release watches.

Getting Samsung support to listen on this issue is quite a PITA, but I'm desperately trying to get my case transferred to someone who is allowed to use their brain (instead of just following the scripts that everybody seems to be forced to follow). We shall see.

:)
[Samsung Gear S2] mobeast17:
I'll call on my end as well
[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
Update: was promised a response in 24-72 hours, and finally after six days got an email saying they needed another 24-72 hours. So maybe (?) they're working on it.
[Samsung Gear S2] mobeast17:
Still nothing? Guess I'll just get the S3 lol
[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
So, finally an end to the saga. After two trips there and back to Samsung warranty repair for this "Access Denied . . . " issue, they sent me a replacement watch. Works fine now. So it sounds like they don't have a fix for that particular issue, but if you're willing to make a stink, they might replace it.
[Huawei Ascend P7] JellyFox:
After I got my phone back from repairs, it had been factory resetted, bootloader was locked and i had a new IMEI and SN.

I tried using the Huawei/EMUI site both (English and Chinese) to unlock my bootloader but i kept getting 'SN and IMEI are mismatched.'

I mailed Huawei but the response i got was that my IMEI was wrong. I mailed them back saying that the IMEI was the one of my current phone and proved it by adding a screenshot of my phone's info and the paper i got when i got it back from repairs (which showed both my old and new IMEI) but I never got a reply.

Is there a way to unlock my bootloader without using the site?

(Huawei P7-L10)
[Huawei Ascend P7] TheSproker:
Yes, it depends on which software version you are using. On some versions you can install an unlocked bootloader, while on others you must root your device to unlock the bootloader.

Dear friends,

I've been researching the area of using OCR (optical character recognition) in the field of Pocket PCs and Smartpones as basis for providing a camera dictionary.

I've stumbled over applications as

*) MediaSeek "Language Translations Via Camera Phone" application announcement, but wasn't able to verify if it is already in use

*) ABBYY Mobile OCR SDK 2.0

Just wanted to ring in and ask if you know any pocket pc applications using OCR ing?

Thanks for your help

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] skatsev:
I tried using Worldcard Mobile (a commercial app) for business card OCR, but the camera on my Titan just doesn't get clear-enough resolution for macro photos... it wasn't able to recognize any of the text except the company names which are usually larger than the rest of the text.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ichwardort:
Thanks skatsev,

This WorldCard Mobile is a very nice program - thanks for the hint - I've just tried it out and it works very well. I'm looking exactly for apps like these and am really amazed that there arn't more around....

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsfg:
suddenly the GT-I8160P started to crash and reboot to crash again and so on.

details:

- the system metioned to be in reduced functionality due to less storage capacity.

- the phone rebooted after starting some app to analyse the memory usage.

- now the system comes up until a few seconds after the lock screen is displayed.

- I am able to unlock the phone and start an app (for example Contacts) and see all contacts are still there.

- but the time is not enough to do anything useful until the phone crashes again and reboots.

I tried:

- first use odin and flash the stock rom again > no result (phone is still on stock rom (4.1.2))

- odin flash the 4.1.2 stock rom without branding > time to crash is a little longer

I want to recover the contacts and some App data (i.e. Whats-App)

The idea to send a stop command via adb shell would be very good.

But adb doesn't find the device as it boots up. Cause the windows system hasn't the time to properly install the driver MTP-USB-Device before the phone crashes again and hence is disconnected what causes the driver installation to break. ADB can connect to the device when it is in recovery mode. BUt am I able to access the file system in this state?

As I am looking through the net for several hours now and trying several suggestions I was not able to get any progress...

If there is any idea I could try either for accessing the data or stopping the phone from rebooting your help would be very welcome. Thank you in advance

Maybe there is any solution with a configuration which is an initramfs which allows to mount the file system and to be connected anyhow (i.e. adb) but I didn't get any hint to something pointing into a similar direction. At least not without wiping the phone (including the data) in advance...
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsfg:
Does Clockwork Mod could be an option

I found the ClockworkMod.

Could this help to get an Recovery boot ?

Does an installation preserves the actual data on the device ?
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cursed Chico:
How did you solve, please help
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsfg:
The issue is still under long-term investigation...

actual status : the boot loop is caused by a massive error in the filesystem of the data partition of the internal memory.

Without dedicated knowledge of the android / Linux / Unix system / boot process / and command line tools one will have no chance to recover anything.

Hence, the recovery of most user-data is very hard / not possible / not economic ... I still try some ideas with imaging the internal memory. But actually I have no great hope to get the user-data out of the boot-looping device.

Most parts of configuration (either system and apps) data might be able to be recovered.

Finally a factory rest will become necessary to get the functional device back.

After the factory reset there is no reason why the device should not work probably.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmar141:
Like the title says, I recently rooted my Fire 7 I got last week from Amazon prime day with the Nexus rom. I have just a few questions.

I should be safe from Amazon firmware updates since I'm not running their version of Android correct? (Amazon won't recognize my tablet and push an update)

If I decide I don't like this particular ROM can I still switch to CM12.1?

Lastly,

If I decide I need to return the tablet to stock, can just side load an old 5.1.2 amazon.bin file?

Any advice on apps that make a rooted fire great? Whats the purpose of Nova Launcher?
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DB126:
- Amazon can not push an update w/o FireOS

- You can switch to a different rom at anytime

- Sideloading 5.1.2 will return your device to "stock"
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmar141:
Thanks! This answers all my questions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] crazyc78:
I have a very annoying problem. When I'm listening to music, podcasts etc. or anything with my head phones,and my device is set to either silent or vibrate when a notification or phone call comes through it blares through to my headphones especially phone calls. I use Viper to enhance my audio and listen to my music at a high fidelity and when a phone call comes in it is extremely loud through my headset. I'm running a ported rom Uncarrier V2. If anyone has any suggestions or a possible solution it would be greatly appreciated :).

Thanks in advance!!

Hi,

I have a Samsung S6 with SIM lock from the carrier and also their bloatware apps. Can I flash an official firmware from samsung updates without tripping KNOX ?

Thanks !

Depends on the carrier. Usually flashing an incompatible firmware will just fail. Knox will stay untouched. Which carrier is yours?

Hey guys. My dad is thinking of getting the 6p. He is a police officer and usually carries his phones in his vest pocket on his chest. That said, the 6p is too tall to fit in the vest pocket.

Can any of you make any recommendations on a good case with belt clip or maybe a pouch he could clip on his duty belt? He usually prefers cases that aren't bulky, but I'm just trying to get an idea of what his options would be.

Thanks in advance for the help!

[G4] the-equinoxe:
Bummer, comm error in the middle of the process :(

No three colored screen from which you can work from?

as long as you have three coloured screen, there is a chance to save it..
[G4] abc12345:
nope no boot screen
[G4] the-equinoxe:
Then, sadly (if the battery is still full) it's a brick..

Bootloaders are being flashed in the first minute or so, so if something goes pear-shaped approx halfway of flashing, only the OS is affected.

Then you can revive the device by flashing while in bootloader.

But since you even haven't got a bootloader, things look bad.

I only avg 20 GB a month or less. I pay $20 a month for udp
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] l7777:
I don't really feel sorry for those who use 100+ GB/month. Those are the users that prompted the removal of the unlimited plans to start with. You can scream "unlimited is unlimited" if you want but its Verizon's sandbox and they make the rules.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] bakemcbride21:
Agreed...there comes a point (about 100 GB a month) where it becomes an "unjust enrichment" for the end user....and this is why we cannot have nice things lol

I'm surprised Verizon didn't go the route of...well the unlimited data plan started in the days of 2G/3G only...so that's the only unlimited data you get...when you are on 2G/3G.

Maybe I shouldn't give them any ideas... :/
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] -4ndr01d-:
agreed. I live out in the boonies, I am on 1x and sometimes 3g. my internet is only dsl at 2.5Mbps (3g speeds) ... so whenever I hit 4g on my phone, I do everything with it. so i sometimes rack up 70gb+ a month. especially when im at work ..teamviewer, netflix, streaming cameras setup at various locations, music is always going, showbox, kodi (tends to use a lot more data than other streaming apps)... the data rack up quick.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] bluh5d:
Has anyone actually reported receiving a letter yet ?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] LakesideWiseman:
I use it as primary internet. Been paying for it for so long. Screw paying $60+ a month for cable that is the same speed but doesn't offer the same capabilities that cellular data does. I rack up over 100gb a month but it's a business account so i doubt they will cut me off.

The fcc does nothing about the internet monopoly in my area because it's not considered a monopoly because wireless internet is considered an option. When verizon charges what they do for internet it clearly isn't an option. We all know verizon can afford to give you more GB's at a lower price.

Most of the infrastructure is already in place and they are paying purely for maintenance at this point. And when they are talking about faster speeds with xlte and lte-a they are expecting you to use more data but have no plans on reducing the cost per gb. Faster speeds means a larger resource pool to tap into. The excuse that heavy udp users are decreasing the speeds for others is basically a thing of the past at this point.

Honestly it's all bs marketing and political manipulation. Tell me why countries in the EU can offer unlimited lte data for 35 euoros a month, which people use as their primary internet source, if this isn't the case?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] 1droidmod:
And why R u saying at 100 gigs a month? Why this amount? Unjust? U r an idiot in perspective. Unjust =Hilary Clinton's Fuk'n National security (knowingly) and walking free. Unjust= people like me or in my "group" pay more in taxes than the "wealthy." UNJUST=VERIZON lying about the effects people such as myself have on "their" network I pay for by using what U stated over "100 gigs" monthly. OPEN UR EYE'S FRIENDS, $$MONEY$$ $$MILLIONS IN BONUSES$$ U should have Verizon show you this "negative" effect. Lol, in words and writing sure but 100% accurate proof including data analysis by 3rd party/partys not Affiliated whatsoever with Verizon does not/will never exhist cause its a story kinda like the Easter Bunny. Do you people not understand the technology that we are using and the capabilities at our hands? The 1% of customers with unlimited data is not something that would be an issue unless it was about money my friend. Do your research think about it come on, look what they're doing in Switzerland.
