They are working on tethering right now and should have it out really soon.
A lot of these things are in development. It's still too early to tell what this device is capable of. I will say if you don't want or can't afford an IPhone this is your best bet. I have no regrets on spending the $500

-FM Radio chip exists in the phone but there is no software to take advantage of it. If the chip is not locked there will be software out soon on the market.
-Android OS supports TV out and USB also supports it. However there is no accessory out for nexus one yet.
-I have no idea what youre asking here.
-Yes it is easy to plug in a bluetooth headset.
-Tethering is not available out of the box. you need to root the phone to use tethering. Rooting the phone requires voiding your warranty (read about how to root nexus one in these forums)
Hello guys and girls, im wondering if there is anyone in the know of what i want to try and attempt. Firstly, i have an old Galaxy S4 i9505, it was my old contract mobile which was put in a draw and forgot about as the LCD smashed and i upgraded anyway. I recently went out and purchased an Amazon firestick for the sole use of KODI, and it works fine (i would like to auto boot straight to KODI or even do away with the amazon operating system all together but ill save that for a future post). My questions are..
1. I have currently got the S4 with the smashed screen rooted, on a custom Rom, (OMEGA v21.1) usb debugging enabled and with a nifty program called Vysor i can connect it to my laptop and browse through the phone and add/remove install what i like. I obviously need usb debugging enabled to see the phone through my laptop but cant see how i could install another rom without seeing the custom recovery on my pc (as it only lets me see and use the phone when its fully booted up) Id like to use this phone purely as a media device linked to my TV with an MHL v2.0 adapter (which i have and works fine with an exception).
So first question, is there anyway of installing a Tablet type rom onto this phone without seeing the recovery menu (doing it blind is out of the question as the touch is also broke) but the rom i install (preferably with gaaps with it) as i need no function of a mobile whatsoever, only wifi and bluetooth i guess, but id need it to have usb debugging automatically enabled or enabled in the rom i flash as id have no way to access the phone because of the screen. any help on this would be a great help.
Now onto my second question..
2. While MHL works fine and i can use KODI ok from my S4, there is a massive problem i need to overcome, the battery drains faster than the charge gives, my understanding is that while the S4 is connected to an MHL lead it will only draw 500ma of power as its recognised as an USB device. So my thoughts are: as a fully charged LI ION battery on the S4 is around 4.3 volts with amp drawing what the phone needs (actual phone rated at 3.8v so at a guess a supply of 3.3v-4.3v is perfectly fine, im wondering if a voltage drop device (from 5v to 3.8) soldered straight onto the battery pins on the phone would keep the phone going without any type of drain, as in it would power the phone inevetably while runnin kodi or whatever else i decide to run on it, ive scoured the net for info on my project but cant seem to get any info about it. i really appreciate any help whatsoever as im quite stuck at the moment. Thanks.

1. I still don't understand why you want to flash a different rom. What will be the difference? There is to much risk imo. You will need a rom with usb debugging enabled by default and rsa security set off. Why not just find a different launcher that will suite your needs? But if you still want then make sure you have TWRP on your phone and use something to control TWRP from the playstore.
2. You need to find a kernel that supports usb fast charge. That will boost your charging to around 1000ma.

First thanks for the reply Lennyz1988, the only reason I wanted another rom flashed was is im in no way going to be using it as a phone, so would rather have a rom that is very light and very light on battery (as in background proceses). As for a custom kernel would that have to be also flashed through recovery ? As I've not flashed custom kernels im not sure on how to go about it, will any custom kernel work ? Sorry for the questions but is there any chance you can point.me in the direction of 1 I'd need ? Thanks.
Ok so I'm just going to 'not' think like a mad scientist for once and await the marvels that I hope a should be unveiled by Someone..
So I got a replica-ish Cast Dongle for ten bucks..
Standard micro USB to hdmi
mira/dlna/airplay support
1 gb ram x2core
Labelled as Aircast.
Noted Rockchip-set.
1. What is the best way to get more info on the hw ki like specific model etc?
2. The ugly landing page at 192168491 does very little and I've so far failed to pair with Win 7 pc
(mirror / bonjour / chromecast) detected nothing.
3. Android WiFi Direct works
4. Bubble / Local Cast sometimes works
5. Android YouTube app doesn't see same with kodi
My question is
What potential does this m6 device have..?
What kind of modifications are popular and safe?
(eg id like to run Kodi direct off this device, is that a possibility?
I basically want to turn it into a set top box / smart TV + mirroring would be bonus)
What's the potential here And where would be a good place to start?)
Never worked with media microcomputer so I'm all ears.

Hi all,
My Galaxy Tab A6 (SM-T585) suddenly can't be recognized by my laptop or read my usb flash via OTG. I searched for any working solution but all in vain
- many different cables
- 2 different laptops
- updating drivers
- factory reset
- clear charging port with alcohol
........... etc
I thought that it's either tab software or laptop windows update. The final probability was that the charging socket should be changed with a new one ( i read that someone tried changing IC responsible for usb data).
I was not ready to think about hardware solution. I searched again until i found a video (may be in Spanish & i'll try to add the link) offers a simple & brilliant solution that works for me after all failed trials.
Solution is :
1- Simply drain your battery to the end.
(make sure it's drained by turning on phone many times. Enter download mode and restart again)
2- If the device has separate battery pull it out ( i can't do it in my Galaxy tab A)
3- leave the phone for a while ( i think he said 10 mins but i left it couple of hours).
4- charge it again or connect with pc >> it will be recognized :laugh:
(it may take sometime to charge as the battery is drained)
My Tips for draining battery fast
- open all apps at the same time
- open wifi (better no to register to network to keep scanning)
- bluetooth & mobile data if found
- open a video in the background with Mx Player
- use camera ro record video with higest resolution & flash
- copy files to and from sd or wifi
..........etc
I only did this and works for me so i made an account to post this thread to help all people with the same problem.
Final notes
- This may work with other mobiles and tablets but i tried it only with my tab A.
- Other solutions may work also according to the cause of problem (cable - driver .... etc).
Spanish Video that helped me
this is the video that help me to fix this problem.
It's in Spanish but you can use subtitles ( CC > Auto translate > English or whatever you want)
i tried to post the link but since i am new member i'm not allowed to post links yet. You can search youtube for video title.
Video title:
PC does not recognize Android SmartPhone | Tricks | We are Android
channel name :
Somos Android
Good luck
So my note 3's MTP functionality was beyond oof, i decided to get spacedesk on windows & android, my note 3 was connected & it didnt recognise the PC at all & the PC had no driver detection so like full on corrupted mtp in the highest directory not even root enabled devices read because even though this fix will defy that & show that software without admin rights can somehow get your phone to trigger somthing to reflash its MTP feature / flash the driver with the generic MTP feature!
Im not even sure how but heres a list of what happened in order:
What caused problem:
A drop (did the drop somehow write somthing via the pins? no clue but thank god it didnt touch the booting procedure)
What fixed problem:
Got spacedesk on android
Got spacedesk on windows
Connected android to windows with wire
PC gets a new driver connected sound with the display taking place
Phone supposedly crashes & this is where it fixes itself
Im not sure what couldve done this but i may be convinced that its the drivers that the software got the PC to put on the phone & the phone wasnt not connected at this stage as it was there, just as a display
Phone reboots & PC gives a new driver connected sound
Phone "suddenly" detects PC & so uses the data wires in the cable to tell the PC that theres an android here
Phone is fine now
I need confirmations from around 5 people whos either got this problem & now wants to try this or people with thrashed note 3's purposefully trying to make the problem to then try fix it
(Not saying you should try break your device to confirm this XD)
Device which fix was tested on:
SM-N9005

SM-N9005
