I've been using this phone a while, and I have been through tough times with it. Two bootloops, Google Play Services crashing infinitely, weird errors, everything. I'd say I've "bonded" with this Samsung and would like to take it up a notch.
I've been looking everywhere for ROMS for this phone and I haven't been able to find any, not figure out how. Maybe I'm just stupid but man it's aggregating.
I have a PC, Samsung driver's, Odin, and of course, my Samsung. I have everything I believe is necessary to flash a custom ROM.
I would appreciate ANY help to get a nice ROM for my phone.
At the minimum, I'd like it to have a theme changer.
Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime One
SM-G53OT1
You can install CM 13 on your SM G5series
CM 13 is a custom ROM used in android devices.

Download and Copy the zipped cm13 and gapps6(arm)to your device's internal or SD storage
Connect your device to a PC in USB debugging mode(just tap 7 times on the developer options in settings to enable USB debugging)
open program files,open minimal adb tools.Type CMD in location bar to open the command prompt in that folder)
type "adb devices" in the CMD without quotes.
"fastboot recovery.img"
Your device will be reboot and

select INSTALL from the option
choose the zipped file cm13 and swipe it to flash the custom ROM.

I'm developing the smart device handler using Google Home Local SDK.
How do I force device to reload and restart the app? (now I have to unplug the power cord, it does not looks good as it sparks)
also I have a couple of Google Home devices, how do I tell which of them should execute requests, is it possible to pin 'master' device?

Currently (during developer preview) you have to reboot the Home device to reload your local app. In an upcoming release, you will be able to refresh your app inside of Chrome DevTools but there is currently a known issue preventing this.
While unplugging your device may be the fastest way to reboot it, you can also reboot your device from within the Google Home app. Select the device, choose Settings, and you'll find Reboot in the overflow menu in the app toolbar.

Local execution currently relies on the Home Graph to determine whether to send a command locally. If the Home device and end device are configured in the same structure (and the device can be locally identified), then EXECUTE will be sent locally.
My intuition tells me someone, somewhere, must have answered this question before. Searching around I have not found it.
I have a freshly installed Windows 7 box (upgraded to Windows 10 to get the machine made eligible, now reinstalling). I have a cheap wifi dongle. I do not know the manufacturer, nor where the driver dvd is. Plugged into the machine running Linux, it just works. It is small, black, and has 802.11n printed on it in white writing, and there are no other identifying markers. (For reference, it looks a bit like one of these: http://www.dhgate.com/product/1pcs-mini-usb-wifi-adapter-802-11-b-g-n-wi/250459680.html)
How, in general, in Windows 7, do I identify the correct driver, and how to I obtain the correct driver?
Found it, ironically shortly after posting this question in frustration.
Go to Windows Device Manager (right click on Computer in start menu, select Properties, then select Device Manager on left pane).
Find the device in Other Devices, then select Properties
Go to details pane, select Hardware Ids from the property dropdown.
You will see, e.g. USB\VID_148F&PID_5370&REV_0101 -- take this string and put it into google, or another search engine.
That gives you a good chance of finding something. I found a .cab file via devid.info, copied it to the machine, extracted all the files to a folder, then in the Device Manager right click on the unknown device, click Update Driver Software, select the option to browse your machine, and point it to the folder you unpacked the drivers to.
I'm working on a device that writes some information directly to a flash drive, without using any file system (it just writes blocks of data directly to the disk sectors). After the flash drive is filled, I need to plug it into any computer with windows and read data using my application.
Everything works great except for when I plug the flash drive in windows warns me that flash drive is invalid an offers me to format it. I want to get rid of this message for my flash drives on any computer that have installed my windows application.
My flash drive have signature bytes at the start so I can always make out whether it's my flash drive or just a regular flash drive.
My idea is that I should be able to write some sort of service or driver which will check all flash drives and will disallow OS to mount my drives. However I don't know whether its really possible and I can't find any documents mentioning this sort of functionality.
I'd appreciate any docs / links / functions names that can help me suppress unformatted disk warning.
Make a tiny real partition at the start and format it to keep windows happy.
Then just use the rest of the drive as you please
This seems to work:
Remove the drive letter assigned to the device:
Right-click the 'Computer' (or 'My Computer') icon on your desktop or in the Start Menu and select Manage. The 'Computer Management' window should appear.
From the list on the left, select 'Disk Management' (within the Storage sub-tree).
Right-click the encrypted partition/device and select Change Drive Letter and Paths.
Click Remove.
If Windows prompts you to confirm the action, click OK.
I'm creating a FAT32 formatted USB Stick/Drive to ship a product. We'd like it to behave a bit more like the hybrid CD/DVD's that we create:
Insert the disk on Mac 10.6 or later and the drive opens up and shows you a window with the application in it. We can do it from a DMG or CD but the USB drive doesn't seem to want to honor the bless command.
On Windows, we've set up an autorun.inf. On XP it's not showing the icon, label, or opening the specified file. I know that you can't have Windows Vista and Windows 7 automatically open something or add an entry to the AutoPlay list by default, but it still should show the Volume Label and icon.
Here is my autorun.inf:
[AutoRun]
Action="Install My Cool App"
Open="InstallThis.exe"
icon="Ultimate.ico"
[Content]
MusicFiles=false
PictureFiles=false
VideoFiles=false
Are these things too much to ask for a USB stick? Anyone else out there shipping things on a USB flash drive and have overcome these issues?
As of Windows 7, AutoRun feature is not supported on USB drives. Only the following commands are supported:
label
icon
See Improvements to AutoPlay on Engineering Windows 7 blog.
Examples in Autorun.inf Entries do not use quotes for values. Does it work without the quotes?
MacOS might have implemented a similar approach to Windows 7: do not autorun anything from a flash drive automatically to protect you from malware.
Is there any way to automatically launch an application on USB attach or CD insert on Mac OS X? it's easy on Windows, but I found that AutoRun.Inf does not work on the Mac at all.
You can't. Autostarting applications is impossible under Mac OS X.
The next-best thing, opening the CD folder and showing the installer icon, can be done by using (AutoOpen version 1.0) to make a .dmg which can then be burnt to a CD.
Basically, auto-run is considered a security problem and so is not supported in OSX. Sophie Alpert's answer is also a bit overkill. Most installers for OSX simply open up a folder to show the application and, possibly, a readme. Installing is done by dragging the app to your Applications folder.
For other kinds of apps on CDs (say, a slide show or something like that), the developer generally uses hidden folders to hide support data to ensure that the only thing the user will see when they open the CD is the single icon they're supposed to double click to start the app.
It is possible to install a background service that monitors whenever a USB device is plugged in and then launches an App. Google's "Android File Transfer Agent" is such a service that is running in the background and launches "Android File Transfer" whenever you plug in an Android device.
If you are looking for something for just yourself, you could write a small mac app that runs in the background and watches for a particular USB device (by id) to be attached and then run the program. Ideally a small XML plist could be used to map device IDs to the correct program to run. The XCode SDK has sample code that monitors for device additional and removal to get you started.
I agree with JavaCoderEx. I would crontab a task that looks for /Volumes/*/autorun.sh, then runs it once. Maybe touch a file in /tmp/ so you know its already been run, then remove it if the volume disappears.
