Tons of games ask to "access photos, media, and files on your device" This leads me to many questions regarding privacy and security. Is it because Android cannot give an app access to its own area/sandbox, but instead has to give access to everything? I would love to give apps access to...

.WAV didn't loop either. any idea if its android, samsung, or just the s7? thanks.

I did mp3 first, then after some reading made an ogg with ANDROID_LOOP set to TRUE after reading in a sort of remotely related issue suggestion I will try wave tonight just in case

I made a ringtone which can be looped into one continuous ringtone, I was very disappointed to see that the s7 inserts a 1 second delay after playing the ringtone before starting it again. is this: a) just my phone b) all s7 c) most android phones d) all android phones And is there any way to...

Just wondering, if something is indexing your songs and making it unresponsive (not crashed), is it Google Music? what if you install that music player, or any other app that may search the whole phone for files. i prefer music players that let me choose folders anyway.

was it sitting on anything? especially a soft plastic? I had a cd player which i left touching a cheap raincoat. my guess is that the oil in the raincoat dissolved the paint. it looked a lot like your picture.

TLDR: As people have said, chips do not get faster with practice. TL: They are complex machines which interact with other systems which can sometimes lead to interesting results. for example, lets just say your processor when underclocked doesn't use as much current as required to maintain...

can you check your battery use? does that give clues as to what is running too much?

I bet no one can guess the name of my plant.

I didn't open my phone, so i'm flying blind. i'm just saying in general when i solder/repair things. I still dont understand what happened, if you want to try to explain what happened and what you are trying to do (maybe with a picture) i could be more helpful. you say the reader broke...

Sorry, the only ones i found have all 8 pins in a line. if there are any markings on the connector, it would be probably easiest to search for that particular one.

first off, not sure how you managed to do this... fyi, i just got a very good condition phone off ebay for $35 shipped, so measure your hassle and see if its worth it :) as stated, you need a pretty fine tip to do anything like this, i'm guessing you are confident enough in your skills. i'm...

I'm thinking, first to deal with the frequency difference, instead of modifying the signal in the time domain, we could somehow contain the phone in a time dilation warp bubble. Then if we could boost the power of google translate's api, there is a chance that we could adapt the protocol to...

Re: [RECOVERY] Cannibal Open Touch v1.1 (HUGE update!) minor request, when you update the thread, can you put a date on it? i haven't gotten around to using COT, but it sounds great. It just makes the forums easier to use for people. Thanks! [RECOVERY] Cannibal Open Touch v1.1 (HUGE...

I used it on a new ZVJ phone 2 days ago, it worked fine for me. I found the rooting instructions a little confusing, it seemed like there were 3 guides that took me around in circles. (my first 2 were zvd before there were options) anyway... Sorry I do not have a stock recovery to test on...
