Samsung announced a new feature with the Samsung Galaxy Note 10, the ability to access Samsung Dex on a Windows or MacOS device. This in my opinion was a game changer as it could allow users to use the insane power of their Galaxy Note 10/Note 10+ devices on inexpensive hardware. Samsung released a client for MacOS and Windows but as usual left us ChromeOS/Linux users out in the cold. It turns out that there is a way to hack it together using nothing but open source tools (no Wine). Once I got this working on my Ubuntu Desktop, getting it to work on my Chromebook was trivial (not x64 only with Crostini). You dont even need to have your phone rooted.
What Works
-Keyboard/Mouse
-Shared Clipboard
-Drag and Drop of APK files to install them
What Does Not Work
-Audio does not route to the desktop
-Right Click does not work

Awesome endeavour
Your work is highly appreciated. I was planning on buying a note 10+ or 20 then discovered LoD was discontinued. Do you believe your method "could" work on the note 20? Really glad to see this as I was about to buy the note 9 and run it on pie(9). I use Linux primarily and my laptop just died. Having LoD would be awesome when this pandemic clears. Again much appreciation Keith.
Edit: after a reread I'm back to the note 9. Still no LoD.

Adding charger over OTG to a kernel

Hi,
As the title suggests, I am looking to add the ability to charge my device at the same time as using USB OTG. The device in question is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 LTE (SM-T235).
Let me start by saying this is my first step into android development, so I'm currently just Googling everything and attempting to follow some guides I found, but I'm still unable to work out which files I need to edit before compiling.
I have downloaded the latest kernel sources from the Samsung development website, extracted them and downloaded toolchain, as per THIS guide.
I have then been attempting to copy the process used HERE to enable the feature, but as that applied to the OPO, I assume the process is slightly different for the Galaxy Tab. I've searched for all the files that contain OTG and there's a lot of them, I can't work out what I need to edit. See screenshot:

(For some reason I have tried 3 different image hosts and it isn't showing up so screenshot has been attached as well.
I have uploaded the contents of the drivers/usb folder from the kernel sources at the following like:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9o8Fezf-53KY0dKUlhZc2VmNGc
If anyone has the time and knowledge to have a look at this and help me out, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
I would like to use my Tab 4 as usb host too. Does OTG without charging work with your SM-T235, @crumble6 ? If yes, maybe this supply would work.

No Screensaver on Huawei MediaPad T5 10

Hello,
I recently bought the MediaPad and then discovered that there is no Screensaver at all. I went to a Huawei Service Center for help/repair and they told me that there is no Screensaver and there is nothing to repair. But the Screensaver is mentioned in all Manuals (english/german), but still is not there.
So I installed Lucid DayDream - clicked on DayDream Settings - and came to a Screen where there is Screensaver (Bildschirmschoner) waiting to be activated.
But I am not able to activate it
Maybe there is an ADB command to activate it.
I put in some Screenshots for Clarification.

Hi, I want to say that I have also a Huawei MediaPad M5, and I am not able to set Lucid Daydream Screensaver on it - very sadly.
I want to use the Tablet for my Home Automation, and I need a Clock on my Tablet. For years I was using an Acer Tablet, and everything worked fine.
Do you already have a solution?
My temporary workaround was to download the App Autostart and StaY! from Google Play Store, then I configured the persist monitor with my Screensaver App - which in my case was Fotoo - Digital Photo Frame Photo Slideshow Player.
Worked quite well, but finally I sold the Huawei MediaPad and bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab Samsung »Tab A 10.5 WiFi« Tablet which has a Screensaver out of the box.
I am really glad I did this.
Hope I could help.

JOB!-Make a Lollipop ROM for Galaxy KZoom SM-C115.. I Will Pay You!

Hello,
I need 5.1 or higher to run in my Galaxy Kzoom (SM-C115) that is stuck with Kitkat 4.4.2 from lack of Samsung support. I also need to keep my Kzoom since in the 7 years since its release there is no other phone at any price that can take pictures as good as it does.
Unfortunate and lame (Come on manufacturers!)
I know that a Note Neo 3 has the same chipset: Exynos 5260 Hexa and can run higher versions so maybe porting one of those ROM's is the best approach.
Rooting has been worked out for Kzoom but no ROM 5.1 or higher:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-galaxy-k-zoom-katkernel-3-4-104-005.2798321/
This person pulled off a slim KitKat ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...custom-rom-for-samsung-galaxy-k-zoom.3172166/
Let me know if anyone with MAD Skills can pull this off as its beyond my abilities and I am willing to pay for a stable Lollipop ROM.
Thanks

Challenge accepted. PM me!
Seems I am in the same situation as Freedomfliyer1 - loving my Galaxy K zoom for its camera and hating Samsung for neglecting its updates ;-)
Since Android 4.4.2 stupidly does not enable the implemented TLS1.2 by default, many apps stopped working. And now my beloved offline navigation went to Lollipop as minimum requirement.
Thus I would love to get hold of a custom ROM based on a more recent Android version for the SM-C115 - and would put some money in a crowdfunding hat for it, or contribute as a beta tester, or in some other way....
Let me know what's neeed to jon the bandwagon.

App to Power On Rooted S8 with USB Power?

Hi guys!
Thanks for having me.
I'm looking for an APP or method that will power on my Rooted S8 when power is applied to the charge port.
Can anyone help or suggest?
I am using my S8 as a data interface to the computer in my car and want the phone to AUTOMATICALLY turn on & off when the car does.
I have successfully rooted my S8 via TWRP and loaded Magisk, am running Noughat/9.0
Any suggestions or help very much appreciated.
**NOTE: S8 doesn't run a boot loader I believe so that hack wont work on my phone **

Hi....Universal Android Root is another application accessible for Android gadgets that allows you to root your gadget without a PC. In contrast to Methods 1 and 2, the application isn't unreasonably well known and it probably won't work with some Android gadgets. That being said, if Methods 1 and 2 didn't work with your Android gadget, maybe this one will.
As the application is old, it should work with more seasoned Android gadgets and firmware forms. Like Framaroot, this application likewise includes an underlying alternative for unrooting your gadget. The application can establish upheld Android gadgets in five to seven seconds.

What the hell is this TV Box AND need firmware ... Any help is welcomed

Box seems "HS 9 PRO", not sold anywhere ... I was able to flash another firmware (In fact, 5-6 firmware "works" for those looking H6_4_32_20191114, X10puls, Tanix H6, Qplus H6) *BUT*
1) Wifi XR819 doesn't work (can live with that)
2) Remote doesn't work which is a pain for ON/OFF (mainly "ON" lol)
Supposed to be, Quad Core A53, Mali450 or Mali720 GPU... I used PhoenixProUSB to flash the images, as said, quite a few worked (I've been trying for 2 days zillions of IMG)
I would gladly put back the original firmware but I have no clue where to get it... Anybody know this box? Underneath, nothing relevant "STB model: HS_PVR_Pro_Dec_2020"
Here's the box (works with X10Plus firmware) and remote (that doesn't work). I can use a USB keyboard but can't turn ON the box.

Also, found out the remote is controlled by a chip "MT908" if I could do something with this, would still be happy (mainly for ON/OFF button lol) but I think it's just the chip and not related to the config of it :|. Anyway, any help is welcomed otherwise it's a bit useless my "4k pro" box
Looks like i'm out of luck :|
any idea on what the remote could be? I could at least use another firmware to enable the remote. Also, possible to install the wifi card in any way? I'm rooted but stock Android 9.0
