    Post Google Chome has black screen after android 10 update on Dex & Vulkan performance iss

    Same here on my S10, have just reported it via the Samsung members app. Obviously, Chrome not functioning in DeX is a major issue and they need to get it fixed pronto. I suggest anyone else having the same issue also reports it to Samsung via the Samsung members app.

    Post [GUIDE] [XOOM2/XYBoard]: How to update Xyboard wifi (MZ607) to Jelly Bean (4.1.2)

    If I remember rightly, once you see the green android and red exclamation mark it's just a matter of persistently trying combinations of volume up, down and power to access recovery. I don't think I ever identified which was the right combination, just takes a little persistence.

    Post BlitzWolf® VR Glasses - Based on the Google's Cardboard idea, but improved.

    Ah, I have one of those so I'll give it a try. Device is Galaxy S6 running completely stock marshmallow. In one of the modes the game pad seems to make the left thumb stick act as a mouse but maybe there's a little glitch.

    Post BlitzWolf® VR Glasses - Based on the Google's Cardboard idea, but improved.

    I believe that this unit is more commonly known under the Shinecon brand but I could be wrong. I have one too and find the lack of button to be a right royal PITA. I've tried to use it with my ipega game pad but the mapping doesn't seem right and it doesn't behave as expected, do you have a good...

    Post Attention! [How to] get to the power control menu in 5.1 Lollipop!

    I seemed to remember reading that either Shield Services or Tegra Services was running amok and contributing to the lag in lollipop. I currently have these two services set to use only two cores at 50% Max and the tablet seems much snappier.

    Post No custom roms are available for our tegra note 7

    I haven't found a ROM yet and I've been looking for ages. Lollipop performance on this device is somewhat erratic; sometimes it's brilliant and others it's useless. Never had to reboot a device so often in my life.

    Post [Q] Are people happy with the SW3 as a GPS watch?

    Wifey has one and it's complete garbage. You have to start music and running app in a particular order, it takes forever to get a GPS fix and it invariably either loses GPS or freezes/crashes mid run. Sony don't even seem to have bothered to make a GPS tracking app, so users had to wait for the...

    Post (Hot)Nvidia Pushed Lollipop v5.1 to our Tegra Note 7

    Chrome became useless for me after 4-5 days. Usual method to install AOSP browser doesn't seem to work in lollipop either so giving Opera a try. Chrome was just too slow to use.

    Post I9505XXUHOA7 Odin files Multilang. . + Guide for ROOT . Works 100 % (EUR)

    I'm quite impressed, first time I've tried Touchwiz in months. Seems quite polished, almost embraces material design. It would be nice to get the onscreen buttons with faster access to Google Now and the app switcher; Samsung's idea of a long press is a loooooooooooooooooooooooooong press.

    It's the first ROM to tempt me back to touchwiz in a long time. Everything seems spot on except Knox isn't working. Clicking on it causes it to try and create a Knox session then the app closes with a pop-up saying "Failed to create Knox mode. Please try again". I guess I could always install...

    Good question. At some point I will need to replace my trusty Motoactv and at the moment the only thing to fit the bill is the Sony Smartwatch 3. The 360 looks so much nicer.

    Post [Q] XOOM 2 ME (MZ607) and Kitkat

    Actually Verizon devices went as far as Jellybean and those ROMs can be flashed on any Xoom2 using the guides on xda. Having done it though i wouldn't really recommend it. Without regular use of a speed booster (which shouldn't be necessary on android) it becomes very slow and laggy very quickly.

    I had similar issues. Using the included 1A charger it would stop at 90% but a 1.5A charger would get it to fully charged, I'd just assumed the tablet battery was getting old. Mine also refused to stay switched off when charging which I suspect is linked to the CID error at boot, don't think...

    If there's a version of yours sold in America by Verizon wireless you may be able to put jellybean on it but my advice would be to not bother, it becomes laggy and horrible after a few weeks use so you just end up clearing data and going from scratch rather to often. KitKat with its low memory...

    I'd love to see KitKat on the Xoom2. Currently using the Verizon JB firmware and it's OK but a bit buggy, not sure if its this bad on a genuine Verizon device. If I could help I would but I'm an end user/noon so you might waste more time explaining stuff to me than the time I could save.
