Since last update the R720 model has been infinite reboot.

Even if you enter recovery mode, it is different from others.

Just like the attachment, there are only three menus: Continue, Download Mode and Power Off.

How can I update the firmware in this situation?

plz..help~!

And my gear2 is R720 Bluetooth Only Model.

How can I check my gear LDU?
[Samsung Gear S2] adfree:
1.

You have Retail device or LDU SM-R720X.

LDU means Live Demo Unit...

2.

Go into Download Mode option...

Make Photo...

Upload Photo

As example look at this Photo:

[Samsung Gear S2] sinue:
Thank you for answer.

The picture was not uploaded.

So I wrote the image file link.

And my gear2 is R720 Bluetooth Only Model.

How can I check my gear LDU?

It is the official homepage of my product.

A.

Live Demo Unit is visible on Back Cover/Rear Case... Look as example here:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Sa...0X-Black-Rear-Cover-GH82-10832A-/351652164931

And in ODIN Mode you should see SM-R720X instead SM-R720...

But your device looks Software okay...

Reactivation Lock is OFF

Warranty Void 0 :good:

And SM-R720 is visible... so Retail Bootloader is on device.

B.

Hmmmmm...

If after weired clicking around...

Download WiFi not come back... then you have 2 variants:

1.

Go to Service Center... :(

2.

For Flashing at home you have to connect 4 wires... to have USB cable...

:( :(

I hope for you is no problem to go to Samsung Service Center...

Flash SM-R720 via USB

Hi. Can anyone help me connecting my SM-R720 gear s2 via usb to pc to enable flasing using odin?

I'm unable to access download "wireless" mode so I'm hoping there is some sort of diagram somewhere enabling usage of the 5 spots under the cover to connect it via USB?

Cheers

Hello, guys!

I'm looking for a gimbal for my LG G6 but something rather cheap-ish and reliable. I'm reading loads of reviews but sometimes honest personal opinions are better. Right now I think about Zhiyun Smooth-Q as it is on sale at my local store. But I've heard that there are some problems with its dedicated Android app which has very low rating on the Play Store, people complain about it very much.

Does anyone of you have this particular gimbal or can recommend something different?

Also is there a way NOT to use dedicated app to record videos, but just our built-in Camera app but keep the gimbal controls anyway (zoom, rotation with joystick, etc.)?

Thanks in advance!
[LG G6 Accessories] J-Zzz:
I have the Zhiyun Smooth-Q. It doesn't provide near perfect stabilization like more expensive models but for its price, there's nothing else like it. The Android app is not so great and cannot output great quality videos but it gets the job done. You can use other camera apps of your choice and still use the joystick. Only the Zoom knob won't work which is fine for me.

Also, just as a heads up, I haven't tried it myself but I've seen videos: when you use the wide angle lens with the gimbal, part of the device will always be there in the lens view. This can be annoying when taking videos. The only way to fix it is turning the device back to front and putting the phone the opposite way as well, but otherwise you can't do anything about it.
[LG G6 Accessories] romcio47:
Thank you VERY much for your reply! I've already watched some videos too where people use Smooth-Q paired with G6 and it looks stunning for such price range. I think I will buy it soon.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Amolecule:
am facing a weird issue with my pixel 2. Whenever the phone is in idle state I dont receive any calls or sms.

For e.g. if I just made a call and kept the phone down. And there was nothing that I received for next 20 to 30 mins. The phone shows its switched off. I cant receive any calls or even sms. This resolves when i restart and then work for next 30 to 60 mins and problem reappears. Really frustrating.

I tried the sim in my samsung and it works great. So defn not a provider issue. Not sure if its a volte issue as i tried using an alternate sim and network wont detect in pixel 2. The network in same as original VOLTE enabled.

I reset my phone twice also reset the network settings. Tried using the 4636 menu to change radio mode. All of it works for 5 6 hrs and the problem returns.

I spoke to the google technician he seemed helpful but asked me to try all things which I already did. Any idea what it could be?

I am on the march patch smaller pixel 2.

HI everyone, I've note 3 N9005, I have tried many ROMs recently including RR rom and the teamesk CM12 ROM... I've 2 problems with both of them (on both of my Note 3 devices):

1. Unreliable internet access for apps: I don't know why this happens but I notice it especially with Facebook, I try to refresh and it takes forever without refreshing, or it gives back the cached feed, however, when I open facebook.com using chrome I can see everything, this is really annoying...

2. GPS doesn't fix, it knows where I'm, but it doesn't fix for navigation, even after using FasterGPS!

If there's another stable lightweight ROM that has none of these problems, just name it :)

I just replaced the battery of the REDMI 3 PRO.

The new battery is not original, I bought it in amazon

As soon as I turned the phone on I had a message BATTERY TEMPERATURE TOO LOW, the battery was 13%.

I connected the battery charger (different types) but I have this problem: the battery is charging (it has reached 19%) but the charging LED does not light up and the "lightning symbol" is not displayed next to the battery indicator.

What can i do?

Im looking for a new tablet for my girlfriend, just for reading, surfing and youtube. I was going to buy the Huawei M5 but now i am thinking about the Acer Chromebook Tab 10. Why? Because i do not trust Huawei regarding updates and this device should last for the next 5 years minimum. As far as i can see the Huawei m3 did not receive any updates... This sucks.

Google says that they will support ChomeOS devices for 6.5 years, this would be great!

For Chrome devices this will be at least 6.5 years from launch of the hardware platform(2) (or in some legacy cases at least 5 years launch of the device itself).

[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
I've owned a few tablets (some returned); nexus 7, Galaxy Tab E, Asus Zenpad, Sammy S2...

I find the 4:3 displays, as a tablet, way cumbersome. It's like holding a computer monitor in your hands. It's too big for some things and not big enough for others.

Experiences vary, of course. But the 16:9 is the perfect dimensions for me. Portrait mode for reading anything, landscape for video. And a lot easier to carry around, or find a place to safely put down, or anything.

Treble will make support better, still a bit early to know how much. And then there's chrome os vs android os... a lot to think about. Good luck.

Good advice, i did not think about the aspect ratios yet. It looks like i will order both and i will do a comparison. I'll let you know how i decide. Thanks!
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
I'd have to guess then, you don't have much experience with these devices?

You have to consider a very important aspect about these things... You walk around with them. You sit on your couch with them. You pick it up and carry it to the next room. You sit out on your patio, on the patio furniture, holding it in your hands or lap...

They aren't laptops. You don't have a convenient table nearby to put them on. They are *** Handheld *** devices (for the most part).

The commenter's [sic] point is that a square device is more bulky, unwieldy, inappropriate for a handheld device. It's like walking around with a computer monitor in your hands (and using it). What works much better is a device that's 16x9. You can turn it sideways and carry it like a notepad (tablet? get it? sorry, my bad). It's just much more comfortable and ** handy **.

Turn it landscape mode, watch movies etc. Turn it portrait, facebook, browser, read book, etc.

A 'square' tablet is just... not really a tablet, in that sense.
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
[MENTION=8292638]B2WJ[/MENTION] Although it's obvious, it bears repeating... 'it all depends on what your needs are'.

For me, and Android tablet is perfect. I'm more or less using it for most of the things I'd do sitting at a pc; email, web, fb, etc etc (I know, boring).

Having it for travel also. Much easier to have a tablet to slip into luggage than tote around a laptop. Additionally, if I thought I'd need to use a keyboard (and mouse), it's easy to bring the logitech module for those and small keyboard / mouse.

Or, just use voice recognition / dictation for responding to emails etc. I honestly have no idea where you're coming from with "OS like Android that is consistently obsolete just months after purchase"... What? Obsolete? Just because it's not the latest and greatest version it's "obsolete"? Honestly, that's ludicrous.

Check your router's wifi area for the encryption it's using. If it's TKIP or TKIP+AES, change it to AES.

Don't ask me why, but something in there, Android, Facebook, something, doesn't seem to like TKIP.)

Now if some working network engineer would just get in there and figure out why ... YouTube works fine with TKIP, so it's not just that TKIP slows video down. The compression used by the server?.

[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morgonhed:
Hi,

I have a 7th generation Fire 7 that I downgraded to 5.4.0 and debloated following the method in another tread (bascically running "adb uninstall -k" over the packages) and put Google Playstore on it.

In this process I lost (of course) the Amazon Prime Video Player which I thought I could simply reinstall via the Playstore.

But alas, not so.

It seems I cannot install any Amazon-Apps anmore. I cannot install the Prime Video Player, the shopping app, nor the Amazon Appstore itself.

The error I get is "App not installed", I assume this is because debloating via "uninstall -k" leaves the data-directories around that that probably prevents a new install.

Is there anything I can do now to somehow get the Prime Video player back, apart from doing a factory-reset and starting afresh?

Many thanks!
