New S5 user looking for root support

Hello all I recently got a sprint S5 activated on boost mobile and so far I am really enjoying it and I was wondering what it takes to unlock this device for root capabilities. Such as how to unlock the bootloader and S-Off and how to install TWRP.

Does Mi 4 Support NFC?

Same as everyone else here, I am a fan of Xiaomi. I Started to use MI 2S more than 2 years ago and it keeps serving me well (I am still using it). Now I considered changing from MI 2S to MI 4. MI 4 looks really nice! But I wonder if MI 4 supports NFC? As I came across a very interesting shortcut button called Air Button that works under NFC so it is battery free. I signed up for it as it is giving out freebies (just why not?!), but I am wondering if I could still use it after switching to MI 4. Hope experts could explain a bit to me! (actually I don't know what NFC is, lol)

Does Nvidia still support the Tegra Note?

After the last 3.0 update, no more updates came after, will Nvidia still give some incremental updates or Nvidia abandoned support for this tablet? I mean not necessary update to Android 6 but update fixing bugs and issues on the 3.0 update.

Hi,

I rooted my TF700T so that I can install CyanogenMod onto my tablet, however, when I go to the ASUS website (drivers and downloads) section to select Utilities from the Operating System drop down menu there are no options to select.

Any idea, suggestion?¿?¿?

[BugBountry] New LCD Panel (r63419) support in Cyanogenmod

Hi Everyone,

I have created a BugBounty page for Cyanogenmod to support the 'new' r63419 LCD panels in the Find7s.

Since many of the ROMs out there use CM sources as their base, the benefit of this goes beyond Cyanogenmod itself.

If you wish to contribute, please pledge here:
Bounty Source: New Find7s LCD Panel (r63419) is not supported

[OpenFit 1.4.3] Spotify Support Available

Hey guys!

Since the OpenFit app media controller didn't support Spotify, I've decided to fork the project and modify the code to make it available.
I don't know the guys developing the app, but they've done an awesome job!

I will upload my code to GitHub when I once more time.
I also imported the project to Gradle, so I can't make a pull request on the OpenFit repo.

Thanks!

PS: I don't know if I signed the APK correctly (just made a keystore and clicked "Generate Signed APK...").

Where do I attach files here?

Sony SmartWatch 3 NFC Support Package

So, after a considerable amount of time I finally managed to properly start the NFC module in SW3. It can do all things a module on your phone can do, however, it uses a lot of battery in the process.

Warnings:

• This package is for build LCA43 only (can be seen in Settings->About)


• Can screw up boot if you install this on a different build and/or customized system


• Future OTA updates can also corrupt your sytem. Restore to a stock ROM before installing them.


• Make backups of system and boot partitions before installing


• Uses insecure kernel (with SElinux disabled) and disables signature checks in services.jar


• Preview/development purposes only, it disables initial tag (used for quick pairing) and causes severe power consumption when NFC is active.

Technical details:

Currently this is more of a proof-of-concept work and security was a big problem when developing. NfcService requires several permissions declared as system|signed which means it has to be signed with the same certificates used to sign the remaining system. I did not manage to do that, so I patched services.jar to ignore bad certificates.

When device boots even if NFC adapter is active, it does not get full power right away. Instead, it sets up a BroadcastReceiver to catch ACTION_SCREEN_ON and ACTION_SCREEN_OFF events to power the module only when screen is lit. However, power manager service on SmartWatch 3 never sends these broadcasts, so the module never gets a signal to turn on. I am yet to figure out why, in the meantime I patched NfcService to turn the module regardless of current screen state. It does not start consuming power until a tag is first detected, after which the battery can be drained with rate up to 50% per hour.

Features:

• Full NFC support (tag reading, writing, HCE (card emulation) and P2P (Android Beam))


• Configuration app to turn NFC module on and off


• Watchface to monitor current NFC module state

The package does not include apps to read and write tags, emulate cards and use Android Beam.

Instaling:

• If you need to omit certain components (like watchface), feel free to remove them from the package files


• Boot into recovery (I am using TWRP found here)


• Back up your system and boot partitions in case something goes wrong or you want to remove the package


• Push the package using adb:
  
  

  Code:

  
  

  ---

  adb push nfc.zip /sdcard/nfc.zip

  ---

  
  


• Tap "Install" on the screen


• Locate nfc.zip


• Install it


• Boot into system

Uninstalling:

• Restore system and boot partitions from your backup

Usage:

• You can control your NFC module using NFC Configuration app


• If you want to monitor NFC module state all the time, use NFC Status watchface (long tap on the screen to set up)


• To view a tag install tag editing app via adb

Example code to check NFC:

Code:

---

 
    NfcManager nfcManager = (NfcManager)this.getBaseContext().getSystemService(Context.NFC_SERVICE);
    NfcAdapter nfcAdapter = nfcManager.getDefaultAdapter();

    boolean isAdapterEnabled = (nfcAdapter != null) && nfcAdapter.isEnabled();

---

Thanks:

• crpalmer for his kernel build configs


• Michael Roland for his article on NFC support in SW3


• Cyanogenmod team (CM was used to build NFC binaries)

P.S. Some time later an in-depth article on how this stuff was done will be released. I'll post the link here.

Does the Note 5 not support a 360 controller over OTG?

The note 4 would let me control the main screens and play any game with a 360 controller. When I plug one in on the note 5 it gets power but no input. Anyone had luck with this? I could only find one other thread with no comments.

Did they remove Layers support from final build?

So I flashed 6.0, HellScore's newest kernel that disables R/W protection (b7-M).

All my other root apps are working however Layers is not. Am I missing something? Cause it seems like Google pulled a fast one and yanked RRO out from the final build. :(
