HI All,

I wasn't even sure I was going to post this or not but I thought it might help someone out. This is not meant to be a "how to" post and you should proceed at your own risk.

A friend of mine had a 16gb Touchpad that he hadn't used in several years. It was just sitting in a box for several years. When I told him I was still using mine to watch videos and such he decided to dig his out. Unfortunately it wasn't in very good shape. The battery had swollen and had practically pop the screen out of the case. I'm fairly handy at fixing things so I told him I would give it a shot to replace the battery.

I wasn't very hard to open the case because the swollen battery had pushed the screen up and gave me easy access to the clips that hold the screen in. By gently prying up under the screen to released the remaining clips the screen came away from the other half. There are 2 cables attaching the screen to the MB so be careful. I wish I would have taken more pics but I didn't think about posting a how to. There are a couple of good how to's online and batteries are available online for around $30.

https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/HP+TouchPad+Battery+Replacement/6082

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD2zGOsh6I8

Once I separated the screen from the body I had to pry the battery out. It is stuck down with some pretty sticky tape on the underside of the battery. You have to pry up pretty hard but you also have to be gentle as not to damage the copper foil that is under the battery. Once the battery is free you can give it a little pull to disconnect the cable from the motherboard. The online how to has you disconnecting all the little cables from the MB and actually removing the whole MB from the case. This is not necessary. The only thing that needs to be removed is the usb module and one or two screws from the MB near the battery connector. With a little patients, good light you should be able to mate the new battery plug to the connector. Just make sure you line the two connectors up and use a small tool to push the plug all the way onto the connector. Now once the battery is installed just replaced the parts in reverse order and you should be good to go.

Hope this helps someone,

Cheers

Thanks! My battery is equally swollen but working just fine, so I'm not sure if I need to do this before it fails. I hope it doesn't explode further or cause a fire!
[TouchPad General] wokawoka:
It's curious, I was going to open a new thread right about that and I've found yours!

I extracted the old swallen battery from my touchpad many months ago but I still have to buy a new battery.

I believe that the batteries sold online were producted many years ago and, considering the value of the touchpad on the used market, 30 dollars are not little in my opinion.

Does anybody by chance know of any cheaper alternative battery that could be adapted to the touchpad?
[TouchPad General] middle_road:
They are lithium. If the pack is swollen it has gone bad.

Replace as soon as possible. The risks with lithium are too high.
[TouchPad General] stephr1:
Hi all,

It's over 4 years since the last posting in this thread, but thought I'd check in anyway.

The battery in my Touchpad does not appear to be swollen (no obvious bulging in the case. However, it seems the battery is not retaining a charge as long as it used to so I'm wondering if anyone has a legit source for a replacement. My backup plan is to take the TP apart and see if I can provide an access point for an external source (battery or P/S) and would be interested f anyone has done this, as well.

The TP is certainly not as fast or have as much memory capacity as current tablets, but its display is beautiful and the price was certainly right (firesale :)

Thanks in advance for any help.....cheers (and happy upcoming holidays! :)
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
You can look for all about the battery on this thread:

https://xdaforums.com/t/hp-touchpad-poweroff-prevents-battery-drain.4002265/

If the Tablet boots, then just keep it charging.

This thread provides some information on how to wake up the battery:

Good luck and happy holidays!
[TouchPad General] stephr1:
Appreciate the links. They were helpful. However, it did not answer my specific question: Replacement battery and a reliable source for it. I will try some of the suggestions to see if I can "rebuild" the battery charging capacity, but at 11 years old, there will be limits to doing this.

Cheers and happy holidays back to you....

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] ASH-19:
I know this has already been discussed in several threads, but none of them go further than just stating that it doesn't work. I'm talking about external mic support on the OnePlus 3's best video recording apps: OnePlus cam and Gcam. All alternatives are far inferior, but if you know any, please tell me (including voice recording apps that can record while filming).

I'm a total noob at making/modding apps, but I've go so far as to having converted the apks to java source code (or as close as dex2jar can get it. It just seems so simple to change from TYPE_BUILTIN_MIC to TYPE_WIRED_HEADSET with setPreferredDevice() in the interface AudioRouting. But that isn't the case, and I would like to ask if OnePlus cam and Gcam just have different names for these thing and it still would be quite easy to change, or if it's so entangled and proprietary that it's impossible. I have the java code for reference, but not sure if it's against the rules to upload even thought they're free apps.

Does anyone have experience with this and can help me/try and mod the apks?

Here's some files with audio in their names (is this where to look and if so, which?):

OnePlus cam:

AudioAttributesCompatApi21.class

AudioAttributesCompat.class

AudioManagerImpl.class

AudioManager.class

AudioManagerBuilder.class

Gcam:

AudioFrameProvider.class

AudioSample.class

AudioFrameConsumer.class

AudioTrackDecoder.class

In addition to the there are also files with names like: ExternalMediaSource.. MediaDecoderSource.. TrackDecoder..

Thanks in advance - ASH19

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fire1951:
I am running CyanogenMod version 13.0-20160127-UNOFFICAL-ovation ( Marshmallow 6.01) on my Nook HD Plus. I am mostly pretty happy with it. I made a backup of it and tried a couple of other images on my device, all the while intending to go back to my original installation. When I got ready to go back to it, I wiped everything using TWRP Recovery ( on an external SD card) , because I didn't want any "leftover" stuff from the other images on the installation. I was under the impression that TWRP backed up the user data, photos etc. I found that was not the case. ( Not really a big problem at this time.) In order to prevent this from happening in the future, I attempted to use adb to my PC to back up my user data (media, etc). I could not get it to work.... tried with another HD Plus ( with Marshmallow flashed overtop Jelly Bean... it worked fine. The PC is not seeing the Nook ( the first one). I looked on the internet and discovered that adb had been left out of Marshmallow by Google. I found a zip by Osm0sis on XDA that was supposed to address this omission, but it did not correct the problem. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Juan1002:
Same Problem

I am having the same problem as fire1951. I am also running Android 6.0.1 and cannot communicate with my computer using adb. I had no problem with this on previous versions of android (Jellybean)..... same device -- same computer. Was this capability left out of 6.01? I get conflicting information on this forum and the internet in general. Surely there's a flashable zip or some method to get this function back. Has no one else experienced this problem and possibly found a fix? Please help if you know a way to correct this.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fire1951:
Juan1002, I found out how to enable and access adb on 6.0.1. Since no one else seems to have this problem, I will pm you the procedure.

Hello everybody I am after some help please.

I own an Abox a1 plus android box s905x. Somehow the original firmware became currupt but there are no original firmwares on the net that I can find to get this box up and running again. With this said i have managed to get it running again through trial and error with a different rom.

The only thing is I am in need of the original remote.conf file to get the remote working again can anybody help as I fear i have run out of options.

(add https before for full address, i don't have acces post link ^^ )

But if you have original again work backup your remote.conf in system/etc/, or remote dont work after upgrade. (and if you can backup, please post here your remote.conf file) thanks.

Sorry for bad english, i'm french.

Edit : I search for repair and i found we don't have a remote.conf but our file named remote_mouse2.tab

i found my factory code via dmesg –c on ssh and it's recognized, now i remap function one by one

The power on keycode is hardcoded in bootloader (and with this rom is different from original). All key work but if box off, power on with remote don't work.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] ktt4510:
I bought a tmobile z2 Force Locked to Tmobile. I am having trouble getting it unlocked. Tmobile even goes as far as to tell me the IMEI doesn't show up in their database. Is there a way for me to unlock it myself through some kind of software mod? I have been out of the android root scene since I got rid of my Nexus 6 a couple years ago. Any help would be appreciated.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TheLooq:
T-Mobile uses a server based unlock system and can only be unlocked via the device unlock app.

If you did not buy the device directly from them, the phone is not whitelisted with the unlock server. You'll need to keep contacting support until you reach a rep that is familiar with that aspect of their systems.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] ktt4510:
If I were to root the device and apply a custom ROM would the unlock app restriction still apply? And if I have no luck with Tmobile directly how reliable are online unlocking services? Most want $60 or so to unlock a device with the app installed like mine has.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TheLooq:
Rooting will not unlock because this is server based. Using a third party would work if the phone was in the database, but third-parties do not have the ability to add your imei to the database to allow for an unlock. Only T-Mobile can do that, and as I said you'll need to keep contacting support until you find a rep that knows how it works.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] ktt4510:
Alright thanks again for the input. As I said I have been away from the root and modding scene for a while and not sure what is capable of being modified on phones anymore. This app for instance is a new thing to me.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TheLooq:
Sure thing. They have their unlock system, umm, locked down pretty good. Most of the unlock companies will tell you their service will only work if the device is recognized by the app, beware of any that say they can work around that restriction.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] ktt4510:
yeah this kinda **** is why I usually buy unlocked devices but I found a deal on the Z2 Force for $350 on amazon. I should have done some research before i bought it though. My wife needed an upgrade from her gen2 Moto x in a bad way though. guess I got a fight with tmobile ahead of me.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] skywalker-live:
The z2 force is only $375 from T-Mobile, and if bought out right they do unlock it (if you follow their rules for unlocking). The Amazon one might not be on TMobiles unlock servers for a reason (?)
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] ktt4510:
Yeah I know the one @ tmobile is 375 but none of them near me have it in stock. There is no reason the one I have can't be used. I just have to fight to get it on their servers whitelist I guess. I have confirmed it works by using a sim card from a friend since I started this thread. maybe now that it was used on their servers even briefly the IMEI is in their system and I will have a little more luck tomorrow.
