Typo, doesn't work for our device, follow the link in Racings post. It states that the company made a mistake and this Does Not Work. http://www.discountcell.com/cellular/pn/samsung_10824nz

No not at the moment.lol I don't need nor have a use for one right now. Nor was I trying to mislead anybody but I have seen adapters in other cases work on different devices.
If anybody gets one, let us know if it works. If it don't, don't blame me. Just seen something worth mentioning.
With dvi support , the blaze is capable of HDMI dependent on hdcp support. Both can be converted both ways. Maybe since its a audio out jack, it exploits the digital part. HDMI video and audio are digital streams so idk but its worth a shot.
I'm out right now but when I get home tonight I'll look into it

Definitely a NO GO !!!! See the post here!!

also worth a mention, HDMI issues are what is stopping us with the new kernel... Other similar samsung phones have the support for it but the Blaze does not..

Yeah I found that out the other night from Uber about the lack of HDMI... Sucks cause it does have DVI which with the proper support can be converted to HDMI and vice versa but when the flags are flipped for both it breaks the kernel. We need some kernel sauce maybe possibly even from the new t989 update :fingers-crossed: . But I doubt it, unless Tmo comes out with something for us we might be up shh creek. It would take Major Hacking to the source to implement are device the way it sits.
Thx for clearing up the Adapter thing, but again I have seen crazier:silly:

Touch to call (from web browsing etc)

Hi there,
Basically I've just moved over from the 4S to the S3 (international) and I'm loving it so far with no regrets what so ever. However there is one thing I really miss and that's touch to call. By that I mean the option where you can touch a phone number on a Web Page or file and it would ring the number without having to copy and paste etc.
Is this exclusive to iPhone or is it also available on Android, Windows etc?
Anyone?
Haven't personally tried the galaxy s3 yet but on all my other Android phones that works. I think there are some certain Web formats that cause issues where it doesn't work, but most of the time it does it no problem. Works the same with addresses that I click on, it will bring up Google maps automatically for me.

What happened to 'Screen Compatibility Mode"?

So on my old Toshiba Thrive 10.1, anytime I ran an app that wasn't optimized for the large screen, it asked me if I wanted to stretch to fit or something to that effect. Probably a Gingerbread thing?
On my TF700 I've been trying to play Avadon: The Black Fortress again, but no matter what the screen is like 60% what it should be.
Obviously with a 1920 x 1080 screen it's just not stretching it from the game's native 1024 x 768 size, but why won't it stretch?
What can I do to make it work out?
Thanks much!
View attachment 2037390
I've not come across anything that doesn't stretch to compatibility mode yet? I'll see if I can try that game out.
EDIT: Ah not at £6.18 I won't!
EDITx2 : Found the demo
---------- Post added at 10:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 PM ----------
OK this is a poorly written app. It forces a resolution and doesn't use the Google api to stretch it. Uninstalling sorry but you'll have to ask the app dev to make it properly compatible.

NVidia TV I don't have touchpad abilities on gamepad remote anymore

Game pad remote, don't have touchpad abilities anymore. When I first powered on the NVidia Console the game remote had touchpad abilities but since the 1.1 update that is no longer the case. Is touchpad only works with certain applications? Has anyone else have this issue? Thanks for any help. Also can we have a dedicated forum for the NVidia Shield Android TV? PLEASE! Thank you.
Same here.. I had to hook up my wireless mouse to use some of the side loaded apps I installed. .
---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:54 PM ----------
Also I run my hot spot on my phone to get online. The providers out here only have super low speed and crazy high ping service. And my unlimited sprint plan with a hacked hot spot gives me around 12mbs down and about 50 to 60 ping. So the problem I'm having is say for smaller apps like 20 to 40 mb apps it downloads fine. But when I try to download larger apps like badlands at 165mb or asphalt8 it just sits at waiting for network. Is anyone else having this problem? Any info or advice would be most helpful.

I guess we are the only two people to have this issue :/ OR perhaps we are the only two people that bought the NVidia Shield TV. YIKES! I have looked in a lot of place and I have found no answers or even mention of this issue with the game handset touch pad not working.

Yup just read that.. I think their reasoning is none of the apps for Android TV should have touch capabilities. So they removed the touch from the controller.. But like I said a wireless mouse works fine but kinda a PIA.. Also for plp having the same issue I was having about apps not downloading, just install the play store 5.6.8 it is for phones and tablets but it will not sit on waiting for network.. you will have to manually update as the auto update is borked..

Anyone know how they removed support? I read that the touchpad still works when paired to a PC so it's not hardware/firmware disabled. Could it be a simple edit in the keylayouts file (root required)?

Galaxy S7 Audio Issues

Hey, I've recently bought a S7 and now I face audio issues. Whenever I watch a video, listen to music, or play games, the audio would usually cut out, and resume after a minute or so. I've never gotten this issue using the 3.5mm headphone jack. Do you guys think it's a hardware or software issue?
Thanks.
that never happened to me before, did you drop it hard someday ? if not, then get it replaced
There is a whole thread about this issue, just type s7 sound problem in search box, one user posted videos. I have the same problem, still don't know what's causing it.

Apparently it has something to do with some Google apps, I'm not too sure how to fix it though.

I did dunk it in water a few times.
Hi,
I have the same problem with audio. It looks definitely as software problem. When the problem occurs i run Hardware diagnostic tests - *#0*# and run speaker test. After that test the speaker works fine.
For me it is something wrong with deep sleep or this doze feature.
Regards

Did you find that info online, or?
I tried contacting samsung, but they only said that i should bring the phone to closest service when the sound bug happens. The problem is that it can happen any time, and go away in the same manner -.-

I browsed around and found out that other devices suffer from these issues. Also, Samsung customer care told me to do a cache wipe and it still didn't fix the issue.
FIXED! After becoming angered with the device, I slapped the living hell out of it and there are no more issues! None whatsoever for about 1 month.
I also have the same problem, someone has solved?

I wouldn't recommend abusing your phone out of frustration (as noob924 claims to have done). Odds are greater that you'd damage it than that you'd find your issue resolved

Android P public beta coming to Essential PH-1 today!

https://www.engadget.com/2018/05/08/android-p-public-beta-available/
Want to try the abundance of new Android P features announced at I/O? If you have the right phone, you can try them today. Google is releasing a public Android P beta for 11 phones, including its own Pixel phones, the Essential Phone, Sony's Xperia XZ2, Xiaomi's Mi Mix 2S and the upcoming OnePlus 6. Sorry, Samsung fans. You won't want to install this beta if you need a completely reliable phone, but Android P's features may be worth trying if you're willing to experiment.

Just announced. Anyone going to take the plunge? I did as soon as Oreo beta was available, some growing pains but overall was worth it.
Too many bad known issues for me to play with it...
What issues are they having so far? Will be nice to get updates quickly, like a Pixel, without the Pixel 2/XL price tag...
SIP appears to be borked...no IP SMS, VoLTE, Video Calling...
Yeah, it's not even worth considering for anything but a dev working on app development. Might be ok for a daily driver in a couple months...
looks like they removed the link already, after I flashed it of course. I don't have wifi currently

Not sure then, but in any case, unless you want to ruin your phone, there is no point installing it... It's not even close to being ready... This is more like an Alpha version, than a Beta version...

So far:
-Notch settings have been removed, so no more immersive mode as of now
-Things are very very smooth, no glitchy animations or anything
-Have not run into any app issues in the few I've run
-Gestures are, ummm, strange? Going to take some getting used to for sure. in a way it is a whole new paradigm. After so many years using android, it feels really weird. I don't really like that if you try to swipe up your app drawer though the "current apps" view pops up behind it. Doesn't looks great and seems like a poor ui choice. I'm sure this will change though
Altogether, so far so good honestly. Seems like daily driver material for my usage
