The only programs I know of are CoolCamera and WebCamera from http://www.ateksoft.com/

Coolcamera is pretty much just a new front end for the camera which allows you to tweak more settings, plus lets you use the front camera for photos.

WebCamera lets you use the front/rear cameras as a webcam for things like msn through your pc.
[General Questions and Answers] Rhodey:
My buddy dropped off his android tablet because it had a bunch of malware, one of which was a porn app. I've factory reset the device both through the settings menu and using the power and volume buttons but as soon as the device connects to the internet the apps come back, this is before we even input a google account into the play store. I don't have a lot of experience with android but I am tech savvy so I'm hoping you guys can help me out.

I'm guessing the malware has replaced some default system apps and maybe I need to reflash the device but I'm not sure how to go about doing that or which ROM is the correct one for this tablet. I ran malwarebytes and it found a lot of problems but when I try to clean them off it keeps saying the uninstall fails. The tablet is a cheap Digiland DL801W. Thanks in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] Ahmad Kassaa:
Fixed!

So you tried to factory reset in recovery mode, but nothing fixed this problem, So you need to Flash Your tablet through Odin, of course depending what tablet your friend have if its a Samsung tablet you should use Odin, if you need help in flashing your tablet feel free to contact me on whatsapp: +96170211236
[Remix OS for PC] vikas_toad:
I have a HP Pavillion 15 laptop core i7 intel HD witn nvidia 840m onboard graphics.

I have tried installing remix os a hundred times now. no kidding :mad:

messing up bcd entries along the way but anyhoo,

here is what I do,

Disable Secure boot

Create a new NTFS 32GB partition.

Install Remix OS on it. with 16gb data partition.

Reboot , select Remix OS from os selection screen.

Now androidx86 logo comes up , formats the partition, I get a warning "Warning had difficulty in writing superblocks" something like that, then it takes me to remix os boot screen and thats it!

it has been hours now but it won't move beyond that point.

The Remix os logo simply keeps flashing infinitely. At this stage even the hard drive activity led on the laptop goes off....

I even tried setting noveau.modeset=0 i915.modeset=1 but nothing helps.

The Remix OS screen just keeps flashing.

I cannot find any solution to this,

Has anyone ever encountered this or know how to fix it?
[Remix OS for PC] vikas_toad:
tried androidboot.swrast=1

still nothing.

Running with DEBUG=1 gives some mount errors.

any help guys ?

any Jide staff members here?
[Remix OS for PC] moman2000:
Try 'REMOUNT_RW=1'

Example:

default 0
timeout 10

title Resident mode - All your data and apps are saved
find --set-root /RemixOS/kernel
kernel /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet SERIAL=random logo.showlogo=1 SRC=RemixOS/[B][COLOR="Red"] REMOUNT_RW=1 [/COLOR][/B]DATA= CREATE_DATA_IMG=1
initrd /RemixOS/initrd.img
boot

It will convert the system.sfs file to system_dev.img and allow read/write!

Maybe that is the issue?:confused:

Good luck!
[Remix OS for PC] vikas_toad:
nope still the same.

anything that I can do to atealst understand whats going wrong ?

anyone?
[Remix OS for PC] moman2000:
Try using a different hard drive, the one you're using may be damaged in some way :confused:!
[Remix OS for PC] HypoTurtle:
Any chance those 'mount errors' are that /data is read-only?

If so from DEBUG=1 try:

cd /mnt/RemixOS
e2fsck -f data.img
reboot
[Remix OS for PC] vikas_toad:
Using a laptop. Using a different harddrive isn't really an option

not sure what they are. any way I can capture logs so that I can post them here ??

Hi, i have the same problem, installed latest version, had to set nouveau.modeset=1 i915.modeset=0 because i have a Geforce 710m graphics card. I have an i3 laptop.

After i set these in menu.lst it boots till the Remix Os logo, but doesn't go past.

I have no idea what to try, i have windows 10
[Remix OS for PC] moman2000:
You can easily replace a hard drive in a laptop... I have done it hundreds of times, there should be a panel with a few screws on it!

Not so sure on capturing logs, maybe you can use "DEBUG=1"
[Remix OS for PC] Vioner:
[MENTION=4848103]vikas_toad[/MENTION] ""Warning had difficulty in writing superblocks" - your HDD is not up for the job. You need to try and fix the bad blocks or if it fails you need to replace the drive. [MENTION=4056517]HypoTurtle[/MENTION] gave you the best solution.

1. Boot Remix

2. In Grub selection select Remix and press "e" to edit the menuentry

3. If you are on legacy boot then use arrows to go to the kernel line and press "e" / if you are in UEFI boot (Grub2) then just move to the kernel line with arrows

4. Now add "DEBUG=1" without the quotation marks anywhere withing that kernel line, but after the kernel word.

5. On legacy press enter and then F10 / ON UEFI only press F10

6. Now follow [MENTION=4056517]HypoTurtle[/MENTION] tips:

7. Now try to boot Remix. If it fails I advise you to run disk checking and fixing for your whole drive.

If you are still unsure how to enter the DEBUG mode, you can go to this guide: http://support.jide.com/hc/en-us/articles/218463867-How-to-increase-the-memory-size-

This is what i got after i used DEBUG:

VFS: could not find a valid V7 on sda.

VFS: could not find a valid V7 on sda1.

VFS: could not find a valid V7 on sda2.

EXT4-fs (loop1): couldn't mount az ext3 due to feature incompatibilities.

What should I try?

Edit: i was able to boot fine with nomodeset vga="xxx"

But this is not ideal, no hardware acceleration and not good resolution.
[Remix OS for PC] Vioner:
[MENTION=3419704]Szighy[/MENTION] I don't know if your nvidia GPU is well supported, but I'm pretty sure that the Intel will work better, so instead of disabling Intel, disable nvidia. Use nouveau.modeset=0 and try to boot.

If that won't allow for complete boot then most likely you must disable nvidia GPU completely. Some devices allow that via BIOS settings - find graphics options and make sure the integrated GPU and only it is enabled.

If you don't have that option in BIOS then I'm sorry, but you will have to wait for new releases with fixes and better drivers or use software renderer (androidboot.swrast=1) or the nomodeset with properly picked resolution.

Remember that nvidia drivers are unofficial, they are actually reverse engineered and then adjusted to work on Linux. As far as I know Nvidia doesn't officially create Android drivers :( "we are on our own".

That's why nouveau will probably never be good enough.

[Remix OS for PC] Szighy:
Thanks for your detailed reply, already tried the first too methods, nouveau.modeset=0 fails, i am able to boot fine with vga=791 and and 794, everything else fails, if i set the exact resolution (using vga=ask, then selecting from the list, that fails too). So no way to adjust the resolution.

"androidboot.swrast=1" - i didnt hear about this one, do i add this like the flags? I have to do some research about it

EDIT: no option to selected integrated graphics in bios

EDIT 2: WOW, i was able to boot fine with androidboot.swrast=1.

You made my day, resolution is perfect now, i cant be thankful enough, i was trying the whole night.
[Remix OS for PC] Vioner:
[MENTION=3419704]Szighy[/MENTION] that's great :) Remember to report your problems here https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1cZNesOmnmO2esilFpvMzFZ874rvwsiKgWIX2fo9QsDk/viewform

androidboot.swrast=1 means Remix OS graphics are rendered by the CPU - games and 3D rendering will most likely be much slower and the whole system may be less stable, because in some cases the software renderer crashes.

I'd say swrast is a temporary solution. I hope your device gets better GPU support.

As for your problem just use root cloaker and hid root to Pokemon GO.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugleee:
I've tried solutions to similar problems in several threads, but to no avail.

My daughter's LG Volt one day just stopped getting a cell signal or 3g or anything. It was running CM12.1 (no dialer codes) so I tried flashing back to stock using the download mode, as indicated by the instructions in the thread. It gets into download mode, says 'do not unplug', and then sits there for about 2 minutes before some more writing comes up and it says 'processing' and continues to hang, never making a connection with the PC. As luck would have it, I have my son's LG Volt here too and his connects in download mode just fine.

Is there any way to repair download mode on an LG Volt?

Is there any way to flash an LG Volt back to stock without download mode?

Thanks in advance.

I've tried to re-install the zip file again using the IntelAndroid-FBRL-07-24-2015, to which now doesn't work nor does ADB Fastboot, it recognizes the device.. but now all commands pretty much fail... I don't know what else to do with this.

I did however installed the Asus Flash Recovery Program, I just cannot for the life of me find what file to use to re-flash this. Anyone please ANY SUGGESTIONS

[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
Hi,

I'm working on a handheld gimbal project wich I will power with a Xiaomi 10000 mAh Power Bank. The Storm32 gimbal controller needs a stable 6-18V power input, my first thought was to use a XL6009 booster module to bump the 5V output to around 9-12V and a LC filter module to get a stable output.

However, the Xiaomi power bank support 9V and 12V Quick Charge. If I can get a 9 or 12V power output directly from the power bank I will get a good power output without the extra work and get better efficiency.

Is it possible to get a 9 or 12V output directly from a USB 3.0 power source? Back in the days, you could just short the two data ports and get a higher amp output. Is there a similar hack for QC?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drickles:
So I recently flashed the marshmallow resurrection remix ROM on my M8 and it was cool...been using it for some time now...no bugs whatsoever...until I decided to insert an SD card for the first time ever since the flash...as usual upon first insertion it tells you to format it into either internal storage or the other option (forgotten the main terms they used)..now I already know that there's an SD card bug on all CM powered Roms..but the way the error occurs on my device is abnormal...after I select how I want it to be formated and start the formatting process it immediately crashes in like 2 seconds and returns to my home screen leaving this error code

Most people with the SD card problems complain of the formatting process being stuck or moving forward to a certain level and then crushing or something...but non of them complains of this kind of error...can someone please look at this and help me?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I haven't seen that particular error. When I've had problems with CM13 reading the SD card, what sometimes works for me: insert the SD card into a card reader attached to my Windows PC. Then Windows pops up a dialog box, which indicates there is a problem with the card, and you can pick whether to fix it. I forget the choices, but there is a quick one, and a slower one. I pick the quick one, which just takes a couple minutes; and also preserves the data on the SD. Then re-insert SD into device, and CM13 seems to read it fine. This doesn't always work, but often does to fix the problem with CM13 reading the SD.

May or may not work in your situation, but just throwing it out there, as its worth a try.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drickles:
But here's the thing...I placed that same SD card in another M8 using the ViperOme lollipop ROM and it seemed to format and most as internal memory or external storage just fine...so I'm sure it isn't a hardware problem
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Removable storage is what you want. I'm pretty sure you'll run into problems if you try to format as internal storage (it becomes a part of the internal storage associated with the

other

M8) and swap the SD to another phone.

Why not try what I suggested, just to see if it works or not? It just takes a couple minutes, so it couldn't hurt. That is, unless you don't have a card reader connected to your PC.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drickles:
Just tried your way...still giving me the same error...it crashes immediately when the formatting process starts...don't even think it even gets time to initiate the process..could it be that this particular ROM is bugged?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
If you try another ROM, and don't get the problem; than its pretty likely a bug in the ROM. But on the other hand, if its a problem with the ROM, I would think that others would have reported it in the ROM thread.
