[IMG="JoyEtech Ocular C poster"]http://i.imgur.com/rcLGDZ4.jpg[/IMG]

Hey there guys, I'm writing in the off topic section about this e-cigarette I've just got, it's called Joyetech Ocular C and it comes with a color touch screen , music player and photo viewer capabilities , bluetooth conectivity, a pedometer to count your steps and from what I understand, it has around 2Gb of memory , it is firmware upgradeable and I'm wondering if there is more that can be done to it in therms of functionality.

It's true that vapers, the people who smoke e-cigarettes as their called, dont really need any of this functionality in their devices since they mainly use them purely for smoking, it's nice however to have something a little extra to go with it.

I've looked online for custom firmwares or methods to customise your firmware for these type of devices, but i've only found info on old devices that come with small monochrome screens and the most you can do is upload logos on to the device.

My interests are on how you can access the root of the system built into these devices since it must have a processor and a file sistem inside, how to edit some of these files , per example, you have the option to upload around 100 pictures and some songs ( the memory on it is 2GB ) but there's no way of deleting them once uploaded, in case your storage gets full.

Also it would be nice if users could implement or extent more functionality in the device, par example it only suports .jpeg files in the photo viewer , .png &/or .gif to use as a screen saver would be nice, more so even video playback capability .

And before I get laffed at for asking so much out of an electronic cigarette, I think that since it does come from the factory with all these functionalities and hardware, it's a shame they dont use it to it's fullest.

So is there anyone having any clues on how to "get inside" these devices and tuning them up ?

I've included the latest firmware I could find for the device as well as the program they offer for you to upload it onto the device. If anybody could crack it opn and take a look inside and see at least what's in there, that would be a start.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I don't see this going anywhere. What you have is more like a storage media with a viewable screen. It's not an actual information processing device.

You are wasting your time, if it was created for uploading and viewing photos then I doubt it has the hardware for video. Plus, I doubt it has enough battery to support more than what it does.

Pick something else to play with, this is a frivolous endeavor.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] dunetails:
I'm experiencing an unusual problem on my Google Pixel; pictures that are over 3 months old are disappearing from the phone of their own volition.

Google photos still has them,I'm not asking how to get them back,I want to find out if anyone else has the issue and ask for ideas on how to figure out what's going on.

It's not just photos taken on the camera either,there's other folders I now know have missing pictures that were downloaded from the internet. It only seems to affect pictures,I'm not missing other document types that are over 3 months old AFAIK.

It's taken a while to confirm it's not anything I'm doing by accident, this looks to be happening on its own. I'm currently testing to see if it's an exact number of days this happens after.

Has anyone else seen this?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] phil.spence:
I think there's an option somewhere that removes photos from your phone once they're synced to the Google photos. By any chance do you have this enabled?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] rnscotch:
This is correct.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Yep, I believe by default Google Photos removes things that are backed up when you're running low on space. I don't know if there's a setting anywhere to remove them after a particular amount of time - I just looked in Google Photos and the Pixel's Settings, and I didn't see a place where it specified an amount of time.

Hello,

Can anyone give me a link for stable version of firmware that can be used with Nougat roms. ?

I have tried CM 14 firmware by Strix and by abhishek, both lock my bootloader.

Tried firmware by Saurav but the WiFi and RIL breaks.

Thanks.

Update to latest MIUI 8 dev or stable is okay. I prefer dev. Use MiFlash for this.

Flash whatever you want (LOS 14.1, NOS, RR, etc.). No firmware needed anymore.

Hello,

In PTP mode phone is detected by Windows 7 but in MTP not. I can't read anything except jpg etc.

I was trying a lot of drivers but it doesn't work. Android Studio detects my phone correctly and i can install applications that i make, but in the MTK Droid Root & Tools v2.5.3 my phone is not detected. ADB shell from MTK Droid is also not detecting...

I have to root because of problem with gps signal. It has very bad accuracy. And also i want to flash better ROM. in future...

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TheArkive:
Currently running PureNexus (2017-03-17 Android 7.1.1) - but in a boot loop. Bootloader is currently unlocked (didn't try re-locking).

Here's how it started:

- Went to TWRP

- Switched to slot B (current boot/ROM/setup is on slot A)

- Tried installing another ROM for testing, got permission denied on mounting system (multiple times)

- tried mounting Slot B manually in "Mount" option, not successful

- tried wiping "Slot B"

- still got permission denied on subsequent ROM install attempts

- switched back to Slot A

- tried manually mounting System in "Mount" option - it worked (puzzled)

- tried to reboot into existing setup on Slot A

- now in boot loop

On the positive side I still have TWRP and bootloader, so recovering from this is easy. Each boot loop ends in another TWRP session. This doesn't seem to be a ROM specific question so I posted this here instead of in the PureNexus thread.

From what I've read, changing slots isn't supposed to be so unpredictable, and I've heard of people running a type of "dual-boot" setup off this method. Did I misread? Is switching slots and performing wipe/install functions a boot-loop guarantee?

I was hoping someone could shed some light as to what may have actually happened, and if using "the other slot" for a totally different setup is even possible?

Does certain aspects of Slot B actually overlap with Slot A?

oy...
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TheArkive:
Update - Boot Slot Corruption

Seems to be no mention of "boot slot corruption" in the Pixel Forum except in the PixelDust ROM thread.

Even so, the PixelDust thread only shows a link to documentation for Pixel XL on this issue, but it seems to fit everything matching my symptoms so far. Also found a reddit post that just about describes my situation exactly.

I'm going ahead with this solution for now (having already returned my device to stock - a 60 second operation).

I'll post further updates as I find out stuff / find stuff, unless I'm told this is documented elsewhere. If so, apologies for mucking up the forum. I swear I searched.

Mods feel free to delete this thread if it is documented elsewhere. The OP contains the terminology I was thinking of in searching for this issue resolution. Since then I learned about "boot slot corruption", but still haven't found a Pixel-specific thread. The Pixel XL thread is the only one I've found addressing this issue, and even so, it's more of a solution to another problem as indicated by the OP of that thread, not so much to boot slot corruption "by name".

The reddit post in conjunction with the Pixel XL thread seems to address the underlying issue I've experienced, specificaly that Slot A and Slot B need to have identical boot and system images loaded (I wonder how this will affect subsequent custom ROM installs??). If I'm able, I'll probably attempt to duplicate the boot and system images from custom ROMS on future custom ROM installs. Not sure how I'll do that yet since most custom ROMs are ZIP flash-able in custom recovery unlike the factory images full of IMG files.

Is it possible / advisable to backup current Slot A configuration in custom recovery (boot and system only?) and load / restore into Slot B?

If so, how to explain Slot B system image being locked giving a Permission Denied error? I haven't yet tried multiple ways of accomplishing this so more to follow (hopefully not a dead end)?

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] videobollocks:
Hi. Bought yesterday in the UK. Love it.

I was poking around in the secret code menu via Engineer Mode Test Tool. In the menu there is an option to change the radio band, the only choice though is United States. Figuring I could change it back to Europe at some point, I hit ok. Now my phone doesn’t register with any network and there is no option to change the radio band back to Europe.

Have I bricked it? Or do you think it did nothing and there’s another reason?

Wifi still works fine, and I can do a manual scan of the networks and they show - I just cannot connect. This tells me that the unit is seeing the networks just fine and the radio band hasn’t changed, and that for some reason I’ve been locked out?

I tried another sim - same problem.

And of course I have tried turning off and on, factory reset too.

Currently in Dublin, phone was roaming just fine beforehand.

Any ideas?

[UPDATE] I re-flashed the firmware and it's fine now.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] penlola:
I recently bought a used stylus 2 plus the device got its network locked after 1 weak of usage when I updated it. Than I spent 70 dollars to unlock it but it also failed because it seems t-mobile service is down and now I'm waiting for device to get unlocked. Now I've spent $220 on my device including its cost and it is locked and I'm unable to get my sim online.

I don't have money for new device, because I'm just a student and I earn money by freelancing or other means. I would love a fast solution if available.

But my real question is if I keep the device for 2 or 3 months more are there any chances f getting it unlocked by root or other means?? or it s worthless??

You only request an unlock code, it doesn't mean you'll use it.

However,

Huawei will record your unlock request information; for software and hardware failures arising as a result of unlocking the bootloader, Huawei repair centers can provide repair services charged at the standard rate for repair work outside the scope of the warranty."

Hi,

I recently took on a contract with orange and replaced my 3 year old Symbian based Motorola A1000 PDA phone with a Tytn2. Was very happy with the A1000 but after three years it was wearing out and I think going to Windows mobile 6 is a good move. I want to try the TomTom software on the Tytn before I buy it but orange do not include it with the phone and the Vodafone and standard HTC install packages will not work with the Orange ROM.

Android 5.1.1 "optimizing apps" on every boot - no .odex files on the phone!

Dear all,

Today I installed Android 5.1.1 on my Nexus 4 after doing a complete wipe and rooted it.

The system runs, but each time I reboot, it takes about 20 minutes "optimizing apps" - each and every one out of 135.

I tried wiping the cache partition, but it didn't help.

I did some research and found people telling that they solved the problem by changing the file permissions of the .odex files to 666.

Then, I was surprised to find that there are no .odex files on my phone (except for a few ones which aren't those I'm looking for). I used the find command with root permissions to find the files.

According to various sources, the .odex files should be in /data/app and /system/app. But they're not there. For example, my directory /data/app/com.whatsapp-1 contains only the file base.apk and a lib directory. Is this normal?

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomasRiker:
For anyone with the same issue: I found out that the problem occurs exactly after installing SuperSU (via TWRP). Only then will Android optimize all apps at each boot. I didn't try other root apps. Instead, I moved to Android 7.1, which also works great and without that problem.
