Games not going into landscape mode so I can play them.

Ok I recently rooted my Kindle Fire and installed ICS, this is my info:
Model number: Amazon Kindle Fire
Android version: 4.0.4
Kernel version: 3.0.21+
[email protected] #23
SMP PREEMPT Sat Apr 28 01:19:39 PDT 2012
Build number: IMM76D
Mod version: aokp_otter_build-M5
Ok so I am loving it and everything works great but after buying and installing Order & Chaos I was getting this error:
"We are having trouble identifying your device. Our support teams automatically received information about your phone and are trying to solve the issue for you. You can try to launch the game again in 48h or, alternatively, you can contact our support team directly: [email protected]."
I was then told by member Stage to edit my build prop to something that is compatible with the game. I found another thread talking about editing the build.prop and edited mine (after making a back-up) to:
Ro.product.device=cdma_solana
Ro.product.model=DROID3
Ro.product.brand=verizon
Ro.product.name=solana_vzw
Ro.product.board=solana
Ro.product.manufacturer=motorola
Ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/solana_vzw/cdma_solana:2.3.4/5.5.1_84_D3G-20_TA-9/110613:user/release-keys
After a reboot it downloaded the additional data and ran but it is locked in portrait mode and half the screen is off the screen. I tried out other games and they all do the same. I checking both system settings and trebuchet settings and auto-rotate screen is check in both. I unchecked and tried it and the same, I checked again and it is still staying in portrait mode.
Thinking the DROID3 settings are messing it up I restored the back-up build.prop and verified all my original Amazon Kindle Fire information is back but it is still doing the same thing.
How do I fix this so that the games go into landscape again? I have rebooted about five times.

Ok wow, I figured it out but not sure why it was doing it in the first place. To fix it I started the game and then went into the system settings from there and toggled the auto-rotate option and now they are all working right. What caused this?

[Q] android.rocess.acore has stopped message after KitKat update

I have the Nexus 4 and I'm getting a really annoying error. I had the latest pre-KitKat stock ROM on it yesterday. I received the KitKat OTA update and proceeded to install it. It installed fine and went through the application optimisation steps and once it did it's final reboot it came up with an "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped". I've got options to Report or click Ok. Clicking Ok will just bring the message back often immediately but sometimes with a few seconds gap. I could interact with the UI between dialogs but literally have split seconds so made navigation extremely slow (i.e. takes a dozen attempts sometimes to click on something behind the dialog).
I've tried a full factory resetting from the phone menu and from the recovery menu, both have done nothing. The phone continues to display the error as soon as the phone boots up after the reset (i.e. before I even go through the phone setup).
I've managed to Report the issue and Preview the details which reveal the following:
Report type: Crash

I've also tried google searching, various other people have had the same issue but what they did to resolve it hasn't worked for me.
Does anyone know what I can do for this?

I'm going to try the full stock binary image from Google's website (https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#razorkrt16s). Surely this must resolve the issue.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And it did indeed solve it.

[Q] Decrypt the userdata ?

Hi there,
I am actually trying to find a way to decrypt my phone (which was encrypted by a password, not a PIN code, which I set up, and I remember the password, no worries for that).
I actually have a root shell using adb, so I can dump everything on the phone.
My problems is that I don't really know how can I do it ?
I was thinking about a kind of brute-force in offline mode, to guess the secret password, but, the only tools I already found :
Edit: Sorry, i can't post the links, but :
Are both based on a PIN code, and I don't really know where I can find the required file (the footer, and the header), so it seems not working
Is someone already done that before, on a Galaxy S4 ?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
4m0ni4c.

Ok, so i'm progressing !
Now I successfully found where is the major information I need to execute my script, i got :
Magic : 0xD0B5B1C5
Major Version : 1
Minor Version : 0
Footer Size : 216 bytes
Flags : 0x00000008
Key Size : 256 bits
Failed Decrypts: 0
Crypto Type : aes-cbc-essiv:sha256
Encrypted Key : 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Salt : 0x00000000000000000000000000000000
----------------
But because the Encrypted Key and the Salt seems not really good (Oh really ?) the next step is also not working well !
If someone have any idea why, I am not refusing any help ^^
Regards.

Eonon GA2175

Hello everyone.
For my first post here I'd like to share and learn more about rooting the EONON GA2175. This Android HU currently operating with Oreo on a RK3326_mid chipset. So after an exhaustive search, there is not much information available in rooting this system. It seems that's this HU seems to be almost completely locked down. For starters, I wasn't able to even access developer mode through the build number as usual. I was finally able to get through by installing a developer access app called "Developer Options Shortcut & Device Info" on the app store.
Using one click apps like Kingo Root, Root Master or Towel Root are completely ineffective. As a matter of fact, Root Master says my "phone is too strong"
I tried connecting the unit to a laptop by using a male to male USB cable. But both my laptop of the HU do not recognize each other. Maybe some drivers may help but none are available.
I've watched you tube videos that demonstrating other people rooting similar units by accessing the safe boot option then loading TWRP on a SD card. I believe this is the only way to root these units. However, for this unit I am unable to access safe mode. I've discovered that holding the "Vol/PWR" knob for approximately 10 sec will cause it to start blinking but combinations with the "RST" button, home or quick pressing the "PWR" doesn't work. That's as far as I got.
I hope this helps anyone with the same unit but any help with my roadblock will be greatly appreciated.
Thanx!

UPDATE
So I finally managed to get to recovery mode on this device.
1. With a tooth pick, quick press the "RST" button.
2. Long press the "PWR/VOL" knob for approximately 10secs until the lights blink.
3. Then immediately quick press the "PWR/VOL"
You may need to do it more than once but it'll work.
Well.... now what TWRP version should I use?
I didn't see my HU listed.
Or should I use a different program?

did you end up getting something to work?
Mark

Not yet.
I did manage to find some unit specifics. I'll post them shortly. Maybe some coder can do something with that info. Where I run into a roadblock is that I cannot find a suitable ROM and MCU.

If this help to figure things out.

Get any further with this, wouldn't mind a custom ROM for mine although i'm pretty happy how it works now.

Actually yes!! Type "ADBON" in factory setting password to access developer options. It works. Thanks Ric69!

Samsung galaxy S4 GT-i9506 network , service mode problems, etc

hi all,
I decided to do my first post as i am stuck with something i am not sure how to rectify as a newbie in the android world but not newbie in the computer world.
I bought a samsung s4 GT-i9506 secondhand phone with damaged usb port thinking to repair it and try my skills for interest above all.
So got the port replaced and mobile charges ok now, i see the device working. battery is OK.
I think the device is Samsung Galaxy S4, and UNLOCKED possibly 2013 model GT-i9506 Black.
I found on the web some other codes like VDS or Shv-e330s-510 but not sure if these mean GTi9506 or are similar.
I found how to wipe - reset to factory, did that and did all updates to the phone. I dont know what OS was previously on the phone.
I then found the IMEI and paid via ebay to do a device or carrier check and got the following results including some other i add by myself.
I give all the info further down.
So, i tried to put a sim card and got error with SIM network unlock PIN window.
I added sim card, local card without subscription Lyca or comviq for above issue.
I dont know the pin and i click dismiss instead of unlock.
So, i need to unlock the networ i understand.
The paid check said unlocked so not sure what is going on with the phone at this stage.
After searching online I went in networks and did a search. I got results as below:
Telenor SE
Telenor SE
Tele2
3 SE
Telia S
So no Lyca or Comviq listed or not sure if ie Telia handles Lyca (I think Estonian company)
as i see Telia signal on the mobile from time to time, using the Lyca sim card.
I then found a video how to enter the service menu to do unlock of the network for free.
It works when i do the 0011 dial with star and hash keys combination, but does not accept
entering key values ie 1 etc to bring the next menu up etc. So it stays in the first service mode screen
which says (some items change values while this mode is on)

-----
So i abandoned this operation and tried to follow other videos ie to root device
and run an app, i forgot its name, found in XDA as apk file that does this unlocking as well (may work)
as could not find it in google play store.
I downloaded a root checker app and checked device. It said may not be rooted or need to grant SU permissions.
I got another root checker and said that device may not be rooted ok, but i guess could be same issue as above.
I also read that samsung disable the service mode and maybe my update is not allowing this mode to work and needs root
or flashing earlier OS versions which i have no clue how to find and apply - i have no instructions at all.
Then i tried to find free root apps but no luck as not sure what you do after that and where. So i stopped here and thought to
ask in the forums.
So, which is the best way to free fix my network problem on this oldie phone...
How can i downgrade and or flash to an older android version that will allow me to run the service mode OK etc. what do i need for that.
Platforms and software pc or mac.
I have a soldering iron and screwdrivers and may do some soldering if is possible to my skills.
