Chromecast has been rooted. You have to have specific devices, as Google locked the device down and is unrootable after a certain point. Check to see if your serial number is listed in the "Rootable Serial Numbers" thread, and make sure you've never updated it over WiFi, as it will automatically install Google's updates and render your device locked permanently. All of this information is covered extensively in the threads around this one you started, use the information that is present.

Also Google has open sourced Chromecast's API's so anyone can develop app support for it. The question is what you plan on doing once you root/jailbreak it. Whatever it is will still require development and app support.

borxnx: Thanks, but I already knew that, obviously I am talking about the *NEW* devices that have a protected bootloader! :-/
xlxcrossing: I knew all that too, I am not asking for API's or anything else, I am specifically asking for jailbreaking and being able to install my own ROM!

At the very least @rekids is working on a hardware method...

I'm sure there are other threads, but that was just a quick few-minute search.
Likely you won't see anything open-public until it actually works, as it's a cat-and-mouse game with Google. Tip your hand early and Google could just roll out an update to stop you before the exploit is usable by a significant number of folks.

Maybe its because the exploit was patched very early but i fail to see any benefit from rooting.
And i say this as someone that used to flash 5 ROMs a week.
This device is very limited and i doubt root would allow much

Yet... Now Team Eureka has added native screen cast. That's definitely a bonus. Say that again in a year, after the chromecast2 comes out and Google changes everything, again.

It's more like early access for that, as it should get released to all (supported configurations) once Google declares it ready.
IMO, Team Eureka's web panel adds a whole lot, but I'm the type that likes control over things like DNS and being able to remotely reboot things.

I am quite sad that only those in the US got chance to root on early devices.
Im in the UK and just bought mine but cant install custom roms.
Hope some genius finds a workaround.

Missing camera features?

Hi Guys,
I bought the unlocked S10 Plus from Samsung US and use it on Verizon. I don't seem to have an option of Night Mode or anything like that camera app. Am I missing something?
Also, does anyone know the trick to consistently prompt for the "Scan" feature when taking pictures of documents? It's so flaky that it probably works like 5 to 10% of the times...
Thanks!

Night Mode is meant to arrive to North American phones in a future update. Samsung is not telling us when, no estimated time frame. But it's meant to arrive for us eventually.
For scanning documents, I highly recommend this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.intsig.camscanner&hl=en_US
It's served me very well.

Got it, thank you for the education bud. I know about the scan apps but the one baked in the camera is neat, but it rarely fires... ?
Any reason for the exclusion of night mode for the US?

Samsung probably used EU for testing purposes, so US customers will have a bug free experience

I use the scan feature all the time, in my experience the scan feature wools 95% of the time, sometimes I have to try a second time to get the whole document in as it only scans most of it. As long as you scene optimiser is set it should work. I am in the UK with an unlocked S10 and although I have the new night mode I still don't have May security patch. It appears Samsung are updating all phones with May update before the S10's which is their flagships.

Well that app seems to have better features compared to what we have stock. More capabilities.

Aren't the exynos camera sensors different to the snapdragon models? That's my hunch.

blood oxygen in canada

Hello everyone,
since I updated my watch. blood oxygen feature got removed. is there anyway i can get it back ?
Thanks

Interesting. I've not gotten the update yet, and I'm wondering if it's because I haven't activated LTE with my carrier.
Anyway, did you try uninstalling SHM and re-installing the modded one provided in this forum? I'm thinking maybe the update pushed a different app to your phone.
So, along those lines, probably should disable auto-update of the Samsung Health apps in the Google Play store.

well I didn't see but I saw the update came few days ago which indicate blood oxygen will be removed in canada. my watch is galaxy 3 Bluetooth model.

Has anyone figured out a way to enable this on the Watch3 Canada? I see the widget from the wearable app however when I add the widget nothing happens on the watch.

IMHO the question is... who control this feature?
Samsung Health Android on Phone... APK?
or
Samsung Health on Watch... TPK?
Or both?
No idea, maybe somebody have time to check this modified APK...

Modified APK does not add the blood oxygen, so I would then assume the answer is either TPK or both

I heard this works but not tried it myself:

Thanks Mona bhai for pointing this out. Yes, Sp02 - dont know when Canada will push that. I believe Apple Watch Canada has got these features approved though.

As you mentioned you installed these, do you think you will get future updates? i think you should as you did not change CSC.

@Ironrobi
Only to be sure. You were able to run the feature list thingies and you were able to change CSC etc. like in these Screenshots?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=83324471&postcount=1720
Thanx in advance.
Can somebody please tell the Tizen part...
I wish to know the Version.
Code:
4.10.2600
IMHO I have uploaded this TPK somewhere... for investigation...
Newer or older Versions exists with Blood Oxygen?
Best Regards

Were you able to make the ECG and Blood pressure on your SW3 bought in Canada? If yes, are you using a Samsung Phone? Because this doesn't work for me unfortunately Maybe because I'm using a non Samsung phone. Kinda bummer..

Installing the modified app I'm able to get into the developer mode and in developer mode I can select the region. Changing the region of the app to US, I'm able to get blood oxygen and stress to come up in the app on the phone, but they do not come up on the watch.

I was able to get SHM to show on the watch for all of 5 seconds, then it disappeared and haven't been able to get it back. Non samsung phone here, but I also tried loading it from a pc.

Anyone got blood oxygen working in canada on GW3?

Ant+ yes or no?

Hi.
I want to ask if someone knows if it supports ant+, since Sammobile web says yes, but eshops in Slovakia says no.
Thanks for help

As far as I can tell no Ant+ preinstalled on tmobile version. I can see the Ant+ downloads in the Google play store though.

no built in ANT+ sensors i think. I tried using a app called IpsensorMan and that app reports no ANT+ sensors

Thank you, it's a shame I think. Even mid-range A51 has ant+

Question Did your GW5 came with the Samsung Camera Controller App installed on it?

galaxystore.samsung.com

If you have a flagship samsung phone (S, Note, Z...), it did come installed on the watch. It was actually installed after the setup. It didn't install when pairing with my A52s, but when I flased NcX (S21 FE port) and set it up again, it installed the camera controller as well.

Interesting workaround. Very strange that Samsung would limit such a simple app to just their flagship phones. I did call Samsung tech support and gave them the model of my GW5 and Model of my A52 and the support guy did not say that the app was limited to only flagship devices and gave me an address of a service center to take the GW5 to in order for them to install the app. Since I won't be back in the USA until 2024 that wont be happening.

Well that is a strange as that is def a flagship phone you got there. You might want to try a chat session with Samsung and see if they can explain why it is not working.

Two reasons why the application is not installed or not available in the Store:
1. Only on flagship devices
2. Phone or watch of the region where it is not supported.
Samsung seems to have again divided the availability by region !!
I have it from the box, Phone EUX+ Watch BTU.

What is crazy is that the $40 Mi Band 7 has it.

"Samsung’s Wear OS-powered Galaxy Watch’s ‘Camera Controller’ app gets new zoom function"
Great for the 7 people here that actually have it!

There is eight of us now.

No

Works now... After I installed January update.

No idea if possible to start by Activity Launcher or something like this...
Only as info...
