[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asukaj:
Good day guys.

So i bought a new 9.7 tab s2 T810 with stock 6.01 android version.

I have just installed a few apps and have 128gb sd card.

I am noticing a slow unlock when i press power button (1,2 sometimes even 3 secs) or when i open my book cover it takes a long time.

I was just wondering is that normal or am i used to quickness of an s7 and it is subjective?

Thanks in advance

MATERIAL NOTIFICATIONS for rooted Nexus devices

Marshmallow and Nougat

[BETA]

How would you like to be first to try out this new theming app? How would you like to see a little color instead of stock white notifications?​

I am looking for Nexus device owners to test Material Notifications. I have a Nexus 7 (2013) and I find that it runs perfectly on it, but before sharing it with the wider community, I would like to make sure it runs well on other Nexuses.

If your device is not a Nexus, or if you are using a custom rom, this probably won't work. If it does work, I would be glad to know.

Whatever device you own, make sure you have a nandroid backup before using this app. If you get stuck in a bootloop or if your systemUI force closes, you can easily sort the problem by going into TWRP, mounting your system, opening the file explorer and deleting color.apk from system/vendor/overlay. Or you can use your nandroid.

Please note that I am not responsible if you brick your phone. Only test this app if you know what you are doing.

Thank you in advance for testing. I hope you will think it was worth your while! I'm looking forward to your feedback. Cheers!

Hi StrangerWeather,

I don't have a nexus device, I run CM13 on my SGS3 LTE, but I'll let you know if it works after my nandroid backup ;)
[Testing] StrangerWeather:
Thanks a lot for this! My understanding is that it won't work with CM, but let me know. I think only AOSP based custom roms have a chance. And stock, of course.

;)
[Testing] woodman:
It installs, root granted, configured, I chose a color and then reboot OK but color is not taken into account after reboot. Will you need logs? If yes, which moment exactly?
[Testing] StrangerWeather:
Thanks but no, logs are not needed in this particular case. I need to study how CM functions and work out a solution from that! :D

Can you tell me, in terms of the UI, was everything running smoothly?
[Testing] woodman:
Okay :)

Yes everything is smooth:

> Splash screen is great :)

> Test Notifications (after reboot): OK

> Reset and reboot: OK

> Valid button on bottom right: OK

Is the selected color supposed to be highlighted? Because it's not the case on my device. If it's not implemented, I think it should be good to know which color has been picked :)
[Testing] StrangerWeather:
Brilliant, thanks! No the selected button is not supposed to be highlighted. But it's a good idea. I hadn't thought of it! :)
[Testing] woodman:
Is normal (Material design stuff ? ) to not have the reboot button and reboot label not aligned on bottom right?
[Testing] StrangerWeather:
No, not normal. Look at my screenshot at the top, that's how it should be. Ok, I need to fix that! :)
[Testing] woodman:
Oh sorry, I didn't check twice your screenshots! Thanks for fixing! ;)
[Testing] bkr32:
Works great on tugapower n2 based on cm, although it will be overlayed by substratum if your using that
[Testing] StrangerWeather:
Cheers for the feedback! Yes, this is really meant for people who don't want a theme. :)
[Testing] StrangerWeather:
So did the app work for you guys or not? Anymore feedback? :)

Is there a way to register your finger print on the device without using an actual secure lock screen? I like just having the swipe Lock Screen, but I like using my fingerprint to sign into certain things, like my bank app. This was possible on the Note 7, but I can't seem to get it to work here.

Help for FAT Corruption on MicroDrive

I experienced same Prob's in the past and was struggeling to get this fixed.

Switch off Device by pressing On/Off Button for several seconds.

when Off, take out the battery for about 30 seconds or so, then re-insert the Battery, switch on Ameo/Athena again by pressing On/Off for some seconds. After that, Microdrive should reappear....

next steps....

First: I recovered my lost data with Active@undelete by connecting my T-Mobile Ameo (DE) via WM5Storage and USB Connection to my WinXP-based Laptop. In most cases the Directory names are lost, but the DataFiles were recovered perfectly in shape.

Second: after having recovered the Contend of my MDrive, I reformated the Microdrive via WinXP Explorer right-click menu 'Format'. Choose FAT32 as Format, do NOT use quick format, as it will not really hit all sectors with reformat.

Third: After Soft-Reset on the Ameo/Athena go to all Applications and set configuration to NOT storing anything on MicroDrive. Use SD-Card or Device Mem instead.

Forth: Switch off Device by pressing On/Off Button for several seconds.

when Off, take out the battery for about 30 seconds or so, then re-insert the Battery, switch on Ameo/Athena again by pressing On/Off for some seconds.

Well, you are now done.

You may now reconfigure any Application to use Microdrive for Storage, but do it Step by Step. Until Now, I can not tell,if any and/or which Application had impact in the past. I reactivate step by step, 1 App per week, to check...

...Until now, my MicroDrive is perfectly in a healthy state...

AND Very important !!! It looks like the Build-in Microdrive Format Tool does not work correctly. Low level checks after formating with this tool did show problems with the FAT-Tables. some tools show FAT12 (which can not address 8GB fully), some show FAT16 (Can address 8GB, but is not supported from most OS), some show FAT32 (which is best choise for that size)

SO, my conclusion is to NOT use MicoDrive Format Tool at all....

Till now, it's paying off for me....

Update from years later......

some additional infos: To prevent ocassional corruption look a likes(see below), disable any auto startup routines from Navigation Software(e.g. TomTom, Navigon) to be found on SD-Card or elsewhere and mainly located in Dir called 2577. Those may interfere with the initialisation of the MD and then, Directory of the MD shows some very strange File and directory names.

If you prevent the autostarts, after switching the device totally off(holding Power button some seconds) and switch on again, this will recover to the original Data, Names und Files on the MD.

I found this, due to the fact, that after this corruption look a like, the Memory Page of Taskmanager still showed the original number of used space on the MD. so I started to do some try and error.....

Well, taking both steps, Format and disable Autorun, I haven't had a corruption sign since now more than one year....

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] patrickl:
Great "step by step".

So am I getting it right that for people who don't yet have a problem with their Ameo MD, to prevent problems they should reformat at FAT32 in XP? ie start the step by step from step 2.

What Wm5 storage version are you using (1.73, 1.75,...) ?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] UweWeber:
Currupted MD - No Way

i'm using V1.73.

I would not recommend to format perfect working MDrive. Think that it's formated correctly in Factory.

Mine has worked fine in the beginning, until..., I have reformated it, because that looked faster to me than deleting 12000 files by hand from it. That was the point, where trouble started....

Uweweber,

Great post. This is the one part of the X7501 (WM6) I felt was the greatest let down.

Btw, I found V1.8 at http://www.freewareppc.com/communication/wm5torage.shtml.

I was hoping to make clear to all (and to me) your instruction to " go to all Applications and set configuration to NOT storing anything on MicroDrive."

1) Did you mean go to 'Settings', 'System', 'Storage Manager' then select the Mirdodrive (Dsk1) then properties then unmount?

2) Do you now always use WM5Storage and USB to load or remove items from the Microdrive?

3) Have you ever not been able to open 'Storage Manager' - damn thing won't open now - even after a warm reset

Thanks for the tips - here''s hoping!

X7501 -- MicroDrive corruption

Fixerboy,

never told to to do anything like...unmounting MDrive...Ok. it's an Application, yes, ok - Addition to the post (UweWeber) please do not tell WM5Storage to not use Microdrive....

BTW: after Weeks of testing, no Application was the source of corruption, it was just the wrong formated MDrive...since it was formated in FAT32, no more probs...

Just updated now to WM 6 , no probs ....

Hi

Your post (I don't know why don't read earlier?) may solve my problem.

I lost many times my data on MD, but I tryed format with internal tool. More than half year I only use MD for nothing because really problematic, but me a need a storege for music, pictures, videos.

I try again use MD with your format tutorial.

So I thank your post :-)

So i was recording a video, when it entered a state where I had to reboot the phone. I did so, and it got stuck. I did a hard reset. The phone then gets stuck at bootloader unlocked. I entered fastboot, selected recovery, and it gets stuck at the twrp logo. Any ideas? I also re-flashed twrp and it still get stuck.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Can you boot TWRP with 'fastboot boot twrp.img' and do anything? (Replace 'twrp.img' with your TWRP image filename)

If not, try fastboot flashing back to stock, but it kind of sounds like your emmc (internal storage chip) might have take a dump. Very unusual, but not unheard of.

This is why one-click tools are bad... You need to flash the full stock image manually, and not downgrade, you must use the same or newer version of stock firmware than you device last had installed.

Only with twrp you can save your data.

What version did you used? Try with another, maybe don't flash - only boot.

"fastboot boot NameOfTwrp.img"

If it boot copy your data to pc.

Did that for Lollipop ( Completed ) For Marshmallow they didn't release the source yet.

I don't think it will be a problem to use the CAF source. ( Will Find out soon. )

Here is my kernel.

http://xdaforums.com/desire-626/development/kernel-wip-port-lollipop-5-1-source-t3470476

Here's my source.

https://github.com/Bigcountry907/kernel_htc_a32eul

I just synced the CAF Android 7.0 source.

It's gonna be a wile cause I been developing this by my self but it is in the works.

I have built the UBERTC cortex a9 toolchains and compiled the kernel inline with the recovery both in omnirom 6.0 and omnirom7.0.

Omnirom 7.0 uses Ninja for building. https://ninja-build.org/

I didn't know if this would cause a problem but it didn't. None I couldn't fix anyway.

So I have used the 5.1 kernel source and built it successfully in newer android versions.

It could be the combination of ninja and the UBERTC toolchain that make it work. IDK.

What do you need in the kernel? I might have it built.

See the downgrade post for metro pcs and edit the mainver in the misc partition as shown there.

You can just flash the misc.img that is posted on that thread.

Copy the 0PM9IMG.zip to your sdcard.

Boot the phone into download mode.

It will ask you if you want to install the ruu.

Hit the vol up key to install it.

If it reboots the first time back to download mode then hit vol up again.

It will flash for sure.

They did away with that a few years ago! lol If this was still around I'd be still buying my phones this way instead of being forced into stupid leases... I loved the ability to buy my phone for like, 300 bucks... then when a new phone came out, I just sell the current phone on ebay or something and get almost double what I paid. then use that money to outright purchase the 'new' phone. Best method of buying phones period! lol. Who cares if its a 'two year agreement' because the phone was basically an out right full purchase since with no monthly payments, meaning the phone is YOURS to do with as you please. The agreement is just basically you saying you'll use their services for 2 years.
