Wake device by tapping touchscreen - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm currently building an internet radio with an android tablet.
How can I configure my tablet to wake up by tapping the touchscreen?
EDIT:
For Nexus 4 there are Kernel mods to get this feature.
As I have a very exotic tablet with Rockchip SoC I believe this is not usable for me.
Is there another way via an App oder some change in config files?
Another idea I found is to let the device always on and just dimming the display. I think this is a not so good idea.

[Q] IR Remote learning mode

Hello,
I have been trying to get a satellite receiver box and a media box to work with the Sony IR. They are not listed in the list of devices so I tried the learning mode.
For both devices the IR application learns the commands (for power on/off, change channel, etc ...) but when I test, it doesn't work
Has anyone managed to successfully get the tablet to learn IR commands ? Is there a trick to it
Thanks in advance
ive gotten it to work, without issue with my equipment. just baseless speculation here, but maybe it matters if you have the tablet learn a tap of the button vs holding down a button?
I used the learn mode. I found it to be a bit finicky. Try it a few different times. Try varying the distance, position, and tap vs hold
Hello my friend,
As i am a home cinema maniac (and this is the main reason i bought this tablet) i can confirm that learning mode working perfect as i have learned more than 7 remote controls to the tablet.
When you choose the button and after you learn the command, do you receive error message or what? Some times regarding the remote unit it is a bit difficult to take the command.
Chris.
Thanks for your replies
I will try the tap suggestion
Basically the tablet says it learned the command (eg power on/off) but when I actually test it, it doesn't work.
I am trying it on an IOMEGA media server and a Hivion (unknown brand) satellite dish receiver
In easy mode it works like a charm on Pioneer and Panasonic equipment
Cheers
The tap trick seems to work most of the time. Only a few stubborn keys yet to be learned by the tablet!
Thanks again for the suggestion

Be careful doing this as many devices will react unpredictably to the "held-down" signal as opposed to the single press command.

[Q] Posibility of auto turn on Andriod when charger it's connected

I'm thinking in the possibility of use an Android tablet to develop an HMI interface to control electrical devices.
One of the problems it's that the devices could be long periods of time stored or simply off, so it will be needed to turn off the tablet via software when the device is Off.
The question if it's possible via an Android App/custom ROM/utilizing root/etc to force the Android device turn on when the charger it's connected?, an not enter with the typical battery charging screen.
Hopping that somebody can know the answer because I couldn't find something in the forums right now.
Well I am not sure but I think that you can find a custom rom that has that feature preloaded and you can develop on that platform.
Somebody known of an ROM that could have that funtionality, or somebody that develop an ROM if it could be possible to add that in android or the charging screen can't be hacked?
For the sake of completion, I have found that it's possible turn on an android device using adb, with the command:
Code:
./adb reboot
But that will imply to build the adb app in a microcontroller connected to the USB port. Certanly it will be more easy if it could be activated in a ROM but it may be impossible to do, somebody has information on that?

I have the same issue as the OP i need my tablet to come on when power is connected. (galaxy tab 2 (7) ) does anyone have any other suggestions?
I have been looking for a solution for very long. There still is no one who has guaranteed to invest time in this project. I have, however, come across a few android models which have same or similar features built in their ROM.
For example: Sony Ericsson X10 Mini does exactly what we are looking for. It turns on android OS when the charger is connected.
There are other generic android devices which perform a similar task. There is a feature in such devices namely "Schedule On/Off" which turns the phone on/off at a pre defined time of the day. A handful of devices that I have come across are Spice MI 270 and Micromax A60. There are a lot many such devices available in the market.
Do not forget to post the solution when u get one.

there was an app made by chainfire called Nomoarpowah that would boot the tablet when charging and you could touch the screen to turn on the device, i sent him a few messages over the last couple of months but no reply and it looks like he's stopped development on it.
so there is a way, i don't have the knowledge to do it myself though.
In Android 4.2 the feature is already there
Press Thanks On Getting Helped
i've installed cynogen mod with 4.2 but i can't find the feature, could you give a little more info?

[Q] pipo m9 pro

Hello,
I Bought the PIPO M9 PRO tablet with android 4.2.2 operating system.
When I started to work with the device I noticed that I can't configure the vibration feature.
Usually you turn on the feature in: setting –sound-vibrate on touch,
But in this device the line is missing.
Could it be that this device doesn't have this feature at all?
Or maybe it's a problem with this version of the operating system?
Thanks ahead,
Eli

Pipo M9 Pro doesn't have the hardware for the vibrate function, thats why you can't configure it.

T95Z Plus minor problems: sleep mode, air mouse, navigation bar, reboot, keyboard

Good morning everyone,
i hope you can help me because i don't know where else to ask.
I've bought a T95Z Plus Android 6.0 TV box, branded by Zenoplige, but there are a couple of annoying things that i don't understand and that i can't fix.
01) Sleep mode (standby or hibernation mode)
After less than 30 minutes without using it, the box goes to standby mode: the screen goes black and the device turns itself off, shutting down the front LED.
You have to press the Power button on the original IR remote controller to power it up again, in a couple of seconds.
Is there a way to disable this behaviour? Maybe an application i can install?
I just want my box to be always on.
02) Air mouse and sleep mode
The main problem with sleep mode is that you can only use the original IR remote to wake up the device. I can't use it because my box is into a little TV cabinet.
I'd want to use the Rii MX3 wireless Air Mouse (a Zenoplige branded clone) as my main and only remote: https://www.amazon.com/Rii-Multifunction-Wireless-Keyboard-3-Gsensor/dp/B01CL3ZXGO/
Is there a way to wake up the T95Z Plus using the Air Mouse?
03) Hidden navigation bar
How do i bring up the navigation bar after i hide it?
The bottom navigation bar can be hidden, using the first icon on the left. Is there a way to bring it back up, without having to reboot the T95Z?
04) Reboot or shutdown by menu
Is there a way to reboot or shutdown the T95Z by menu?
Maybe an app that i can install...
05) Change physical keyboard layout
I want to use the Rii MX3 wireless Air Mouse keyboard as my main keyboard but the layout seems to be an US QWERTY.
Can i change it?
I need an european layout for special characters.
06) Custom ROM
I've discovered that on the Freaktab forum there are some custom ROMs for the T95Z, like this Superceleron: http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...s-t95k-pro-t95u-pro-superceleron-v1-final-rom
Do you suggest them?
I don't understand why they would be better than the stock one...
Thank you in advance!
I've managed to fix a couple of those problems by myself.
I have to thank this video, that is a little bit long and a little bit boring but covers every aspect of the configuration of the T95Z Plus Android TV box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKcgFScCI8M
01) Sleep mode (standby or hibernation mode)

The box wasn't going to sleep or standby mode.
Simply, when i turned off my TV using the TV IR remote, the box turned itself off too.
I had to completely disable the HDMI CEC in Settings > Preferences > HDMI CEC > CEC Switch > Off.
See there: https://youtu.be/WKcgFScCI8M?t=15m8s
Now i can shutdown the TV without shutting down the T95Z box.
(I can't control the box using my TV remote but the shutdown button is the only thing that's working)
Edit: I had to change settings a little bit because with CEC Switch totally off, the box started to shutdown when i switched my TV to HDMI 1 and back.
So i did set:
- CEC switch: On
- One key play: On
- One key power off: Off
- Auto change language: On
Now it seems ok.
Note: i think you have to reboot the box to really apply those changes, because the last problem emerged after a reboot.
02) Air mouse and sleep mode
The main problem with sleep mode is that you can only use the original IR remote to wake up the device. I can't use it because my box is into a little TV cabinet.

Now that point 01 is fixed i can use the air mouse as my main and only control device.
03) Hidden navigation bar
How do i bring up the navigation bar after i hide it?
The bottom navigation bar can be hidden, using the first icon on the left. Is there a way to bring it back up, without having to reboot the T95Z?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(I've looked at a lot of video reviews and) That's a bug and can't be fixed.
You have to reboot the box to make the navigation bar reappear.
This is fixed in some custom ROMs, like the Superceleron V1 i've already mentioned (http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...s-t95k-pro-t95u-pro-superceleron-v1-final-rom), that has a fully working disappearing navigation bar.
05) Change physical keyboard layout
I want to use the Rii MX3 wireless Air Mouse keyboard as my main keyboard but the layout seems to be an US QWERTY.
Can i change it?
I need an european layout for special characters.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I had to manually change the layout of my pysical keyboard.
I went to Settings > More Settings > Personal > Language & Input > and manually set the keyboard layout to "Italian", instead of "Default".
Now the special characters are working well.
I also went to Settings > Keyboard and switched from Android Keyboard to Remote Physical Keyboard.
06) Custom ROM
I've discovered that on the Freaktab forum there are some custom ROMs for the T95Z, like this Superceleron: http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...s-t95k-pro-t95u-pro-superceleron-v1-final-rom

This is still not so clear to me but i've understood a couple of things:
A) The same T95Z Plus box by different brands
The most common T95Z Plus box is the one manufactured by Sunvell but there are a lot of brands that are re-selling the same T95Z Plus Android box with their own logo: Akaso, Zenoplige, Kekilo, WeChip etc.
They're all the same device.
Only the firmware can change and the wireless chipset.
Mine is a Zenolige with firmware number T5ZP0030.
B) Flash the firmware
Everyone can flash the latest firmware: http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...nvell-t95z-plus-tv-box-amlogic-s912-octa-core
You just have to be sure that you have the right wireless chipset for that firmware, which is not so easy because you have to open your box to discover it.
So, i decided to stay with my official firmware an wait for the OTA upgrade.
C) Custom ROMs
Take a look at the Superceleron V1 custom ROM on the Freaktab forum: http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...s-t95k-pro-t95u-pro-superceleron-v1-final-rom
As far as i've understood, it fixes some minor bugs, like the disappearing navigation bar or the missing "reboot" option, and introduces some improvements in Kodi.
04) Reboot or shutdown by menu
Is there a way to reboot or shutdown the T95Z by menu?
Maybe an app that i can install...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I installed Quick Reboot (Root): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=phongit.quickreboot&hl=it&rdid=phongit.quickreboot
It works great because the T95Z Plus comes already rooted.

to turn TV off and leave the box on
No, volume down on my T95Z Plus remote does nothing to my TV.
By the way, i've discovered that i also could turn off the HDMI-CEC on my TV. But the settings i'm corrently using seem to work well.
In the end, this box really disappointed me and i sent it back to the seller, asking for a refund.
It has a lot of bugs.
The hardware seems good but the software is a crap.
It reboots itself randomly very often, it freezes, a couple of apps keep crashing.
The video playback is really dark in Kodi and Plex and it's a common bug of Amlogic S912 boxes.
The 5.1 audio has problem, it wasn't working (it was mute) and i had to change some parameters in Plex settings just to make it work.
Kodi crashes if you don't disable the "Amlogic codec" in the settings.
A lot of users have wireless issues, slow speed or no reception.
The keyboard has a bug with the Enter key (and some other annoying little things): http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...nvell-t95z-plus-wrong-character-from-keyboard
The box still shutdown itself, after some time, and i can't understand the logic. It also wakes up my television, despite the settings i've made on the HDMI-CEC section.
When i turn on my TV, the box ofter reboots itself.
The Zenoplige attached remote mouse is really cheap.
I've also discovered that there are two version of the hardware, the old one and most common with a AP6330 wifi chip (like Sunvell and Akaso) and the new one and less common with LTM8830 wifi chip (like my Zenoplige).
I've discovered what chip i have looking for the wireless MAC address in Settings > Wireless > Advanced and inserting it in an OUI lookup: https://www.wireshark.org/tools/oui-lookup.html ("Shenzhen Netcom Electronics Co" is "Longsys", that is LTM8830 chip, MAC address starting in 84:5d:d7).
There are no full working custstom roms for the new LTM8830 chip.
A lot of people seem to have my same problems and they're trying to fix them using custom ROMs. I have absolutely no desire to do so.
The OTA upgrade isn't working for anyone.
You have to manually flash the firmware upgrade via recovery or via app but it's not clear what firmware you need, because of the differente wifi chip. And firmware upgrade don't fix the mentioned problems.
I'm gonna try the Probox2 Air: https://www.androidboxreviews.co.uk/probox2-air-review/
It has a more modest hardware (fair enough) but it looks much more stable and well working, according to the reviews i've found. It is a six month old device, so any problems should have been discovered so far.
The software looks really nice and clean.
The price is just a little bit higher.
I'm gonna leave here a couple of links that i hope are gonna be useful to the people that bought this box, like me:

WIRELESS CHIP AND BOX VERSION
http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...pro-t95u-pro-superceleron-v1-final-rom/page14
A bit late now (sorry), but given that we know that these WiFi chipsets are not made by the same company, there is another way to find out without resorting to a physical check:
1) Install WiFi Analyzer app from PlayStore
2) Select Tools --> OUI Lookup
3) Enter your WiFi MAC address (get this from System Network Settings)
This will then lookup the manufacturer of the WiFi chipset, ie. AMPAK for the AP6330 or Longsys for the LTM8830.
--------------------------------------------
T5ZP0009 is a newer build but it is a franken build. Also the wifi chipset can be found by opening the box and looking at the chip. That is actually the easiest way to do it. There are other ways like using a terminal emulator or adb. You have to reboot and immediately run
Code:
dmesg | grep wifi
before the log is overwritten. Somewhere in the output of that command will tell you the wifi driver which will in turn tell you what chipset it is. broadcom is AP6330 and I'm not sure what the other chipset is.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WIRELESS DEAD
Same Problem Here, WIFI Dead, I have the LMT8830 Wifi Chip too
My Initial Firmware was T5ZP0030, I've try many many tings since yesterday and can't get it work..
Well we need to work on this issue and find a solution. I'm here to help fix this.
I read (translate) from a Russian forum that they have a Patch that fix the Wifi problem, but the link is dead.
--------------------------------------------
Before updated firmware please make sure you know exactly what t95Z Plus box you have. there is 2 version. the latest one have the 9377 wifi chip in it and if you don't flash the good firmware you will loose wifi feature.
Seach some post here you will figure easly how to find out. then you will be good to flash with a good source.
if your build is T5ZP000x then you have the normal version
if your build is more like T5ZP003x then you probably have ne newest board
You could open the box too to see what wifi chipset you have.

DARK PLAYBACK 01
http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...pro-t95u-pro-superceleron-v1-final-rom/page14
I'm hearing that the main gripe with the AMLOGIC S912 boxes is the very dark play back on Kodi (me no exception). There is a well known fix for this, namely disabling acceleration under video in Kodi, then adjusting brightness/contrast, but this also (I believe) disables 4h playback. As my TV is 4k (ergo I'm missing out) my question is whether your firmware update resolves this, or is there a fix in the mix??? if it wasn't for this (which seems to be a very widespread issue) the S912boxes would be great, as all else (with mine at least) works smoothly.

DARK PLAYBACK 02

Hi all,
Short version ==> The screen is very dark after upgrade.
Long version:
As soon as I upgraded 007 the screen has been very dark. The home screen is a bit dark, still navegable though, but it's very annoying when using kodi. It's dark enough to make watching movies very difficult. It's as if the gamma was set way to dark.
I've tried going through all the options and nothing changes it. Currently I've upped the brightness on my screen and played with settings there but the image is washed out.
To be more specific, changing screen resolution, deep color mode, hdr, etc. don't have any effect.
Others have the same problem (in french) but it doesn't seem to be everybody.

Has anyone had this problem here ? Any known workarounds ?

FIRMWARE FOR LTM8800 WIFI CHIP
http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...ox-amlogic-s912-octa-core?p=621707#post621707
New Firmware
T95Z PLUS with SoC S912 (06-01-2017)
Not 100% sure the Version look like t5zp0010
Download as ZIP upgrade from HERE
Source: AndroidPC.es
This Rom is only for Models with the LTM8800 WiFI Chip
Hi, I just received this box with LTM8800 wifi chipset and I use Superceleron V1 Final ROM, as you know wifi don't work but I will try to fix it. For me no bugs with the ROM and I use Rii MX3 wireless Air Mouse.
A good thing, I have successfully ported TWRP 3.0.2-0 to it.
You can flash it with Rashr app, boot it on Micro SD with the update app and a dummy update.zip or with the toothpick trick on boot. (rename it to recovery.img)
Download link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...ecovery-twrp-3-0-2-sunvell-t95z-plus-t3557812
A bad thing, there is a problem for restoring System partition on "Superceleron V1 Final ROM" with TWRP, if you do this you will have "Error during restore process.
extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255" and you will not be able to boot. I'm sure that come from the ROM, an other user on Freaktab.com have the problem on the same ported ROM on NEXBOX A1 box: http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...-twrp-for-amlogic-devices?p=623481#post623481
The only way to repair is to flash firmware again with USB Burning Tool. The restore feature works fine with the stock ROM.

There's too damn work to do for a device that should only do a couple of simple tasks!
Flash a ROM, lose your wifi, install a recovery etc etc

I found the login without problem, edited my profile to see if something wrong. I can't send private message to members too. Too bad because I can probably help on the forum and release the recovery for members who wait for it since a long time, I sent a message to the Administrator with "contact us" but no answer. I use Gmail to avoid problem with Hotmail like mentioned.
Thank you for your reply

You're right but i wanted an easy project, something that work out of the box
I've discovered another interesting thing: if you reset to factory default, on the next reboot there will be an OTA update available.
The update is from T5ZP0030 to T5ZP0031.
It's a minor bug fix, it is only 1 Mb and it fixes a wireless bug i haven't experienced: "wifi not work when change language".

I am having this box too and I have extremly problems with the network connection.
WIFI - Works slow and just for a few minutes.
WIRED - Works just a time and then it disconnects.
I am running the build T95ZP0032. I think this is the newest version of the firmware, right?
Can somebody help me pls? Dont want to send it back. I've just got this box two days ago.
As far as i know there is a 0033 version at the moment....i am not sure if i am allowed to link but there is a custom ROM on Freaktab (i believe the developer is MartBios2K). He resolved some issues and also did Supercelon but you will lose led and time display in the progress.
For WiFi try not to use 5Ghz band, it's bad, try to stick to 2.4Ghz
I will try to post the link to latest firmware when i am at my pc

I will try that. Thank you for your information and effort!
Hello guys, i don't remember the details but i've already linked the custom ROM and the custom firmware in my previous posts.
I've also explained the wifi chip problem that ZeroZorro mentioned.
Take a look at those posts

In need of standalone touchscreen Android compatible recommendations

Greetings all,
I'm working on a project that requires a touch screen that is able to run Android either out of the box or via some OS boot configuration.
The screen/monitor should not have any input/output like HDMI slots and others - only the touch screen component with a simple power connection. It will be part of a bigger project that already has a power source, 4g connectivity..etc.
Thanks
