I looked at all the desktop stand/chargers for my LG G Watch R and didn't really like the look of any of them. They were all too expensive or involved the expense of a 3D printer, which I don't have. I used to work in a jewellers and remembered the display stands we used so I found this display...

9 hours to charge and then discharge in less than an hour? Other times it will charge in an hour and discharge even quicker. Tab is rooted and I've tried clearing battery stats and the fully charge, off for an hour, discharge to 50% and off for five hours with no consistent results. Sometimes...

I use Hangouts for my SMS. Does this work or does it rely on the stock SMS app?

My vote is for a free trial. I've looked at this app but Google's 15 minute window just isn't long enough. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

I rooted my TF 700T because I wanted to apply the ftrim lagfix. The lag was simply making the tablet unusable. No problems with the Kingo root so far.

Just flashed these. Big delay I know but that's another story. Anyway. They all got copied into system/media The shutdown file was the only one that didn't replace an existing file and, sure enough, boot up now shows the Samsung S but shutdown still shows the Three logo. Anyone know where the...

After a lot of Googling, which evinced that Kingo had only gathered IMEI numbers in an attempt to build a database of devices and associated os versions; which practice they have now stopped, I took the plunge and rooted with their program. Success! The easiest root I have ever done. It...

OK. Thanks. I have those. I thought there may be root-specific drivers. I'll look into it, particularly the Chinese data upload issue.

Thanks. Which drivers did you install?

Where is this tutorial?

I keep getting: FAILED (remote: () straight after booting... All the searches on this come up with variations on remote: (not allowed) but I just get the empty brackets. Does anyone have a fix?

I was going on the OP, who said the root only worked thus. No idea how to flash a custom recovery via fastboot or where I can access ROMs?

I finally unlocked my tablet but on 10.6.1.14.10 If I downgrade to 10.6.1.14.08 will the device still be unlocked? Can I upgrade back to 10.6.1.14.10 after rooting?

Yes I did. :( Have put in a support email but no reply as yet. >:(

I'm having the same problem. I don't get prompted to input my Gmail address by the unlocker though. Or do you have to do that somewhere else?

I've searched on this but can't find anything. I have a Three network Galaxy SIII that has been network unlocked and works on my O2 account. The only annoying thing is the Three network logo (in black on a white background) that runs at boot and closedown. I found this thread that describes how...

That's the context menu, also accessible by pressing "C" on the keyboard. I'm using XBMC with an air mouse so this is easy. Not so sure how you would do it with a virtual keyboard.

Have you tried the Plex player on the Android? How does it compare to XBMC?

I've been playing around with various nightlies. Sadly the Pivos build, with hardware acceleration seems the best for my MBX DVBT device. I say sadly because there haven't been any new builds since October. Meanwhile I've been focusing on the network problem. Basically I never got good...

Wot I said. It all appears back to front to me. I can see why XBMC has ended up like this as it started as a standalone environment designed to work on a machine that was only ever intended to run games. I just think it might be time for fork designed to work as either an OS in its own right or...

I'm beginning to think the concept of XBMC "launching" itself as an OS on top of an OS is flawed. Video and audio streaming works splendidly using ES File Manager on Android but as soon as I switch to XBMC I get all sorts of problems and none of the advantages of the Android OS: no media...

Unless you add them to the local library (press "C" on keyboard / select "Add item to library" ) XBMC is pulling all the extra information (the info you see while it's playing) from the server each time. Adding it to the library creates a local database of this and makes streaming much smoother.

Are you playing the files directly from the remote file system or adding them to your library and playing them from a queue or playlist?

The only build I've found with HW acceleration is the Pivos one, for armplayer machines. I have found, when streaming over wifi, that files played directly are not buffered, whereas those played from a playlist are and so don't have any stuttering.

I'm not convinced the router is at fault. I've had the same experience using various routers and have found clearing the XBMC cache solves the problem, which suggests the app is at fault, which seems to agree with the fact you and I have not experienced the problem with any other app.

Have you tried looking here? http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Music_library#Context_Menu It says to use the 'C' key on your keyboard. Hope that helps.

With my Sumvision Media Player box the "Menu" key on the remote brings up the submenu to scan my SMB for media. My only problem is, with 200 Gb on my network drives, scanning is taking a looooong time.

This thread puzzles me. I used the cable from my Nokia E71 and it worked fine. Surely they're all the same?

I found that but still can't order the list to show paid apps together. I also wish you could order uninstalled apps alphabetically.

Thanks. As said, you can now view the details of an app in My Apps and return to the list without it leaping to the top. I still miss being able to see a list of purchased apps though.

Thanks M_J_Nazari. Strange that different flavour should have different options. What sound options do others have?

I'm not on Vodafone. I'm carrier free so JW4 is the latest and greatest. Not sure if the silent camera option came with this camera hack or was there before though?

I don't know. This is for GT i9000 Samsung Galaxy S. I can't speak for the SII. However, in the SGS it is under Camera/Settings/Spanner icon tab/Page 2/Shutter sound

No need. You can turn off the shutter sound in Settings/Shutter Sound. Just choose no. 4, which is called "No Sound".

Excellent work. Having missed two pictures recently due to the dreaded low battery bug feature, I finally decided to take the plunge. Took me a bit of fiddling with CWM to toggle signature verification but, once I did, everything went smoothly and now I have a camera with no low battery warning...

Panacea has a search option. Once you have opened a database and selected a table you are presented with two options: Iterate through the rows or, Search the database. The second option then asks you to select a field to search and a search term. Works great for me and is very useful.

Apologies for being a novice but what does "flash zimage.tar" mean?

Although I too discern an iPhone bias: claiming the iPhone is a better design, the iPhone keyboard is a slick design and ignoring the fact that iCloud is a borrowing of Google's cloud approach which is available on all Android phones, he still gives a fair review that I read as broadly favouring...

Without knowing what that comment was this post is meaningless.

Never had BW or APN on/off installed so they weren't the problem. I also did a hard reset and still had the same problem, which I experienced as a huge lag, not a freeze.

I couldn't say. I've been using Go launcher since 2.3.6

By all reports the only change (from CSC JW4 to JW5) is an upgrade of Play Books. Certainly I haven't noticed any other difference.

I've gone for that. Apparently the only difference is a built-in Play Books app. Battery life seems better but then it always does after an upgrade. Still trying to work out what kernel I should use to root it.

Thanks but that is more than just a rooted kernel isn't it?

Kies has just updated my CSC to JW5, removing the rooted kernel in the process. Is it safe to re-root with this or is there a JW5 kernel on the way?

You must be confusing us with iPhone users. ;)

Actually I'd say it's the ram that's freed up that is the main interest, the TW4 elements are just window dressing.

Go Launcher is the way to, er go...

Indeed. I wonder if Samsung's mention of it in the press release is a tacit admission of that?
