Does your car have wifi? If not, you will not be able to use Android Auto wirelessly since it will run over WIFI.

We do not know when ( it might be never since AA development does not seem to be a priority at Google) but when Google activates the wireless functionality, I think your car will need to support it and that is not only up to Google.

So fingers crossed that your Cruze will have a software update that allows wireless Android Auto.
[Android Auto General] starslicer:
Yeah, I have the premier edition that has WIFI. People at work make fun of me because when I roll up to the building my cars wifi shows up as an option on their phones. I guess we'll see how it turns out and if GM will support it further. They have been eager so far to use the technology.

These should do the job.

Hi!

Ive tried to root my phone for the whole day without any success.

First time i rooted it (successfully) i forgot to check the OEM unBlock in Developer tools, so i had to re-flash the stock Rom to be able to boot it.

then when i enable the OEM Unblock in Developer Tools, i shut off my phone and go into "Download Mode".

Im using the "CF-Auto-Root-hero2lte-hero2ltexx-smg935f" to root the device.

It goes so far as it reboots, then when it tries to enter Recovery Mode to finish the Rooting it gives me the message: "recovery is not seandroid enforcing"

Suddenly im unable to enter Recovery Mode.

To solve this, i yet again re-Flash the Stock Rom to be able to both Boot and to be able to enter the Recovery Mode.

And this is the Loop im stuck in.

Whenever i try to Root, it wont let me into Recovery, and whenever i try to fix it im back at Stock Rom again.

Please Help me, what do i do, and what am i doing wrong?!

Ps. Already checked so i got Exynos Chipset, so it should be able to root?!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NonXtreme:
What you did wrong was that you didn't let the root process finish. You see "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" and panic but actually you should wait for it for at least 5 minutes as chainfire(op) said himself in CF auto root thread.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] islammanjurul:
hello,

I have a nexus 7 2013 wifi version. I am interested for the nvidia shield k1, however I need some idea and suggestion if that will be a good move or not. Shield has half the storage than nexus 7 2013 (16GB vs 32 GB of N7v2), but though it has SD card slot, will it help? Like my present nexus 7 2013 has around 35-40% free space, so guess most of the 32 GB is used up including ROM, data, cache, etc.

Also I am concerned about performance, lagging, etc on the marshmallow rom as well as upcoming Nougat if released. Will Shield perform better that N7-2013? I know shield is a gaming powerhouse, however my concern is regular usage - I mostly use tab for skype conferences, heavy browsing on chrome for android, facebook, messenger and photo viewers.

I need to know if shield is the perfect replacement for my N7 or not, for all purpose usage, including ROM stability, performances, bugs if any etc.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
i have the first nexus 7 and the shield is way way better than that in every way so its an upgrade in every sense and for the price you wont go wrong
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirrin:
The only thing is this tablet will not have the Nexus line of support. Also it is pretty much not going to get a 2016 or 2017 model and I expect Android n to likely be the last update to os it gets if it get n
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venelar:
Timely thread. Im currently tablet shopping and still think this a best bang for my buck tablet. We have a bunch of movies downloaded and the sdcard support is great so the kids can watch on long trips. Im sure with the rom community this tablet should last me a while
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirrin:
Don't get me wrong I do recommend this tablet I just did not want you to expect Nexus like support and that it more likely going to be eol support by this time next year.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venelar:
For what we use it for, I think it'll be a nice upgrade to our 2013 nexus 7.

Only question I think I have is will PlayStation Vue mobile install on it. Not that it's a deal breaker
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] islammanjurul:
Even the Nexus 7 2013 is on EOL since it didn't get official nougat from Google.

So i guess I can go for the shield, coz cannot pay for pixel c and also pixel c has poor wifi.

And google too didn't announce the Nexus 7 or 8 2016 it was expected to, and even they do it will be overpriced.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yrp888:
I'm in a similar boat - been struggling with my Nexus 7 2012 ever since Google pushed LP out and ruined it. I've tried many different XDA ROMs but the lagginess persists despite fstrimming about once an hour while using it.

What I mostly do with the N7 is read Google NewsStand, another news reader, and look at my emails, but my N7 is getting quite miserable at that so I figure I need to take the plunge and change.

My research has pointed me to the K1 as a suitable candidate but living in Australia means I'll have to order it from Amazon - sending it back is not an option. I've seen many threads on various forums complaining about WiFi issues and lags with the MM rollout (I know 6.0.0 was Google's stuff-up), and I'm curious if the lags and WiFi problems have been solved as per the most recent MM update (July 2016)?

Are the any other weird things that might deter me from choosing the K1?

I love the size of the N7. I bought an HP 7" Win tablet very cheaply but it's nowhere near as usable as any Android device despite the latest Win10 updates, so I'm very much leaning towards the K1.

Appreciate any feedback from N7 owners who've made the switch to the K1, those who haven't responded here already of course.

Many thanks!
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
i had the n7 2012 and ive also bought a hp stream 7" windows tablet and the k1 is so much better at everything than those, and i dont have any lags or wifi issues at all mate
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yrp888:
Thank you for your response - identical devices so presumably we shared the same pain with the N7 and Stream 7.

I should order the K1 soon ...
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
yeah lol, the n7 was great but not up to the jib these days and the stream has its uses but its nit that great at all lol
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graed:
The Nexus 7 2013 (razor) is no longer receiving updates. Mayhaps you could try CM13 at the time and give some more life.

You will miss the size compared to the Shield Tablet, I used to carry the Nexus 7 in a side pocked of my jackets, not possible anymore.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yrp888:
Awesome ...

Thanks heaps for your feedback. The K1 arrived the other day, got charged up, updated to 1.4 then 1.5 and wow, what an upgrade over the N7.

Really appreciate your comments!

Now I have to read up on rooting ...
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
rooting is easy mate just unlock bootloader then flash twrp, then use twrp to flash supersu,

but glad you got this tablet, its awesome for the price
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yrp888:
Unlocking and flashing TWRP was easy enough, but for some reason flashing SuperSU wouldn't hold for the first couple of goes.

I left it for the night and tried again this morning on the off chance I did something wrong the first few times (totally unlikely given how many phones & tablets I've flashed in the past) yet strangely, it worked! It got restarted once or twice prior, perhaps that made the difference, who knows - and who cares ...

There's a factory installed "screen protector" on the lens cover,which doesn't interfere with the picture quality.

I'd like to think this will provide a decent amount of protection,although nothing will make it bullet-proof less an Otterbox defender or similar (no THX).

I hope the protective film holds up for a while before peeling back,& I'd guess there'll be protective films available on eBay soon,if not already for sale.

Myself,I'm gonna use a liquid sealer on both the display & camera lens cover,I have just enough left over from when I used it on my Note 7:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] djan84:
Hello ya all!

I gotta say i am very impressed about this forum, all profs and callows like me can share their experiences..

Well my question is that;

My housing of TyTN (which is grey) has a crack on it now... It fell down from the stairs and suprisingly TyTN is still working with full functionality with a huge crack on left side of the housing...

So now i want to change my housing with a new one, and as i am in Turkey, there is no any HTC repairers.. What i can do is just buying it from the internet. I found few housings on ebay, all of them are for HERM100 devices (most of the sellers give the buttons too). If i buy one, will it fit on my TyTN with no fault? The buttons are different, we all know that, but maybe the pressing points of the buttons on the board are same? Can that be possible? Because i can not find any HERM200 black housing anywhere...

If it goes on like that i mean if i can`t find a suitable housing i will go to China by my self and purchase one, i am sick of using bad-looking phones... :(

Thank you all for your help..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ss1271:
My suggestion is:

first check CNN.com. It seemed you can get most of HERM200 housing there.

if u cannot, then try to find some dissembled pictures of your HERM 100 and HERM200

and check it out meticulously.. if you re sure that they are same in mainboard, especially in the keyboard point, you can try HERM 200 housing.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] TauTau:
I think in some other thread was mentioned, that the circuit board in the HERM100 and HERM200 behind the thumb pad are different.

Both Newegg and BH Photo will be selling the unlocked US Cellular V20 Model US996. It says it will work on all carriers since the LG site shows the supported bands.

http://www.lg.com/us/cell-phones/lg-US996-Unlocked-v20-titan

So I guess there should be no problem with it working with Verizon, AT&T , Tmobile, and Sprint?

Also holding out hopes that it can be bootloader unlocked and rooted.

If you look at the FCC for the Verizon VS995:

https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/ViewExhibitReport.cfm?mode=Exhibits&RequestTimeout=500&calledFromFrame=N&application_id=ft0NWPNMdRRxvx6HqFyc8Q%3D%3D&fcc_id=ZNFVS995

Click on RF Exposure Info 1 and open the PDF.

The first page lists these of the V20 models:

VS995, US996, H990T (the VS995 is the Verizon model and the US996 is the Unlocked).

Then look at the supported bands:

GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850 824.20-848.80

GSM/GPRS/EDGE 1900 1850.20-1909.80

UMTS 850 826.40-846.60

UMTS 1750 1712.4 - 1752

UMTS 1900 1852.4 - 1907

Cell. CDMA/EVDO 824.70 - 848.3 (This is Verizon CDMA voice and 3G)

PCS CDMA/EVDO 1851.25 - 1908.75 (This is Verizon CDMA voice and 3G)

LTE Band 12 699.7 - 715.3

LTE Band 17 706.5 - 713.5

LTE Band 13 779.5 - 784.5 (Verizon LTE Band)

LTE Band 5 (Cell) 824.7 - 848.3

LTE Band 66 (AWS) 1710.7 - 1779.3

LTE Band 4 (AWS) 1710.7 - 1754.3 (Verizon LTE Band)

LTE Band 25 (PCS) 1850.7 - 1914.3

LTE Band 2 (PCS) 1850.7 - 1909.3 (Verizon LTE Band)

So to me, this shows both the VS995 (Verizon) and US996 Unlocked has all of the same bands.

But even if a person (on Verizon) decided to go with the US996 and gets it to work just fine on Verizon, there is no grantee that VoLTE or WiFi Calling will be supported (because of the different software/firmware), and it's up in the air as to when firmware updates will be pushed out.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] papashex:
Compared to the ATT H910 frequency spec the US996 is missing UMTS 2100, LTE 29 & LTE 30. Is that going to cause issues should one by the US996 for use on ATT? I have no idea what those frequencies represent.

Has anybody officially tried this variant on Verizon yet? I really want to pick up a V20. I'm stuck with Verizon, and I'm not looking forward to their bs locked down bootloader.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] FAUguy:
The US996 model isn't out until early-to-mid November, so still about 3 weeks out.

It supports all the Verizon bands for CDMA voice and LTE 2/4/13 for data.

The only questions is if Verizon will have any issues activating it in their system, and if VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling works. No way to really know until once it's release.

At this point, I plan on waiting to see if the US996 fully works on Verizon without any issues, and hope the bootloader can be unlocked and eventually rooted. I have only had phones that can been rooted, so hate to give that up.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ascent:
Just adding my two cents... Sorry for necroposting. Hopefully this comment will help save someone a heart attack later.

Accidentally bought a US Cellular version US996 on ebay. Before processing a return, I decided to call US Cellular to inquire about unlocking it. Apparently they keep a list of device models which unlock from the carrier automatically as long as three conditions are met.

1 - It can not be a black listed device

2 - It can not be attached to an active account

3 - It can not be attached to a line that has been canceled with an outstanding balance.

as long as the conditions above are met when you insert the new sim card, it should behave as if it was never locked and connect with the new carrier.

Will update with results when I get it in the mail later this week or early next week and try to activate.
