Installing Google Play in China Rom Samsung Tab

verz84 — Tue, 16 Jul 2024 14:21:32 +0800

Hi. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A6 with S-Pen (SM-P583) with China ROM latest (P583ZCS3CTJ1) that i just bought from a seller in carousell.
Originally, the tablet has been installed with LienageOs with Android 11 when i received it from the seller. It also has the google play.
Unfortunately, it lost the air command functions for S-pen. I can't also install samsung notes. I wish to have back the s-pen function back, so flashed back to stock china rom which doesn't have google play.
I'm already used to the air-command and s-pen features.

I've successfully flashed TWRP recovery (twrp-3.7.0_9-0-gtanotexlwifi-unofficial-20240221-b3-) with Odin 3.0.
I've also downloaded GApps (open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20220215).
The problem i've been having is i don't get how to copy or save the GApps zip file in the internal storage, thus i used sd card and otg drive to flash it in TWRP.
After flashing and rebooting, it stuck in the Samsung Logo and restarting.
What i did is go back to flash to the stock rom.

Anything that i might have done wrong? Or wrong files?

I hope to be able to maintain the original rom while having google services and google play.

Your opinion is very much appreciated.

Best PC or Workstation Setup suggestion

verz84 — Sun, 14 Apr 2024 20:12:07 +0800

Hi. I just recently had in hand 2 sticks of 32GB DDR4-2133 RDIMM Ram
I've tried them on my pc running with X570 motherboard and R9 3900x but didn't manage to boot up. I guess not compatible even though the motherboard support ECC rams.
Since they are not easy to get, so i guess will try to see what i can do with them before letting go.

I really appreciate for any suggestion for best pc or workstation setup that i can come out with with these rams within the budget around 3-3.5k.
I mostly do 3d modelling and rendering.
Maybe can start with motherboard which maybe compatible. I've been searching around but mostly support EEC UDIMM.

Thanks in advance.

Cat Food - Greens & ICats

verz84 — Mon, 03 Aug 2020 19:56:42 +0800

Hi all!

Wanna ask if Greens and ICats cat food brand good for cats?

I have 14 adult cats age more than 1 year and 3 less than a year. Has been feeding them Smart Heart, Whiskas, Pro Diet and most recently Cutie Catz. I found out that they are not good for them as they pooped like hell everywhere around the house like having diarrhoea. Watery yellowish poop. Got some advice from vet who suggested to feed them with Royal Canin...they really love the brand..and poop better.More solid....but...17 cats...1kg a day..equal to RM30 a day...haish...I prefer to buy in big bag. Easy to stock up. 10kg cost around RM3++ here and i may need 3 bags permonth. The pet shop suggested Greens & ICats for more affordable price. Haven't try yet.

Hope you guys can give a review on those two brands if you have experience with them.
For info..cats food very limited here in Sibu, Sarawak other than the cheap normal brand. Other than that, Royal Canin, Greens, ICats, Furry cat, IAms and buttons and bows easy to get.

Thanks in advance for your comments. Cheers!

Can Tenda 4G680 works without sim card?

verz84 — Tue, 29 Oct 2019 15:35:12 +0800

Can Tenda 4G680 works without sim card?
I'm subscribing to a broadband package which comes with its own modem.
So i guess i'll just use the Tenda 4G680 as a router.
Been using the Tenda 4G680 with sim card. Will it work as a router only? Without the sim.
Thanks in advance.

Send motherboard to seller for RMA. Nearly 5 month

verz84 — Sat, 30 Mar 2019 21:53:55 +0800

I bought Biostar motherboard from seller in lelong. One of the ram slot not working and still under warranty.
Sent back to seller by post last November. Told me should take around 2-3 months. Waited for 3 months. No news.
Its near to April..meaning going to reach 5 months since i sent for RMA.

Contacted the seller every month since then.. Seller said still not ok yet.
Follow up every 2 weeks last month. Still not ok.
Last week i contacted the seller again.Told me will check with supplier. After that,no longer replied my text these few days including today.

In such case..what should i do? Thinking of calling the supplier directly to check the status myself. The problem is, i don't have any info about the motherboard other than the model...

Need opinion or suggestion..thanks..

Worth to upgrade from i5 4590 to i7 4770?

verz84 — Sat, 29 Dec 2018 10:03:38 +0800

Currently this is my old rig setup.

Processor : Intel i5-4590 @ 3.30
Motherboard : Asrock H81M-DG4
Ram : 8GB X 2 Kingston DDR3
Graphic card: Zotac Geforce GTX 580 Amp
Power supply : Seasonic S12II-620W 80+Bronze
Hardisk : Kingston SA400 120GB SSD (OS)
Western Digital Caviar 1TB
Monitor : Running on 2 19" monitor. 1 acer & 1 china brand.

I'm mostly doing graphic, 3d modelling & rendering stuff such as CAD, 3DMax, Rhino, ArchiCad, Revit, Sketchup, Lumion, Artlantis, VRay,iRender, Photoshop etc. Rarely play games which most of the time only CS:GO & Battlefield.

I've got fund to upgrade my PC but would prefer not to spend too much by changing the whole system.

Since i've got a LGA 1150 socket motherboard, so i'm thinking to upgrade to i7 4770 (non K).

With all the setup, is it worth to upgrade? Will it do any difference for my work?

Or any suggestion that that can make the performance better without me changing the whole system.

Thank you for you your feedback.

Vietnam or Cambodia for Education Trip

verz84 — Thu, 01 Mar 2018 08:15:23 +0800

Hi, im a lecturer in a local architecture school. We are planning to have a study trip with the students and after some discussion, the list of places to visit was down to 2. Vietnam or Cambodia. We've visited to Bangkok before, but never been to these two palaces.

So, need an opinion on which to choose.... the main purpose is to discover architectural experience. I know both are well known for their historical sites. How about modern architecture?

Which one is better. Really appreciate your feedback.

Thanks in advance.

PC boot up problem

verz84 — Sun, 17 Sep 2017 16:57:07 +0800

I need to press the ON button on my PC couple of times before it successfully boot up.
It was fine before, until i changed the set to new casing.
I tried swapping the ram and psu from other pc. Still the same.
It works well after it successfully boot up.
Just that it is quite annoying especially when im rushing to do my work.
What may cause the problem?
Thank you in advance...

Where to bring students for study visit in Johore?

verz84 — Tue, 02 Feb 2016 10:54:18 +0800

Good morning fellow academicians and everybody.

I am a lecturer teaching Architecture in a local university in Sarawak.
We are planning to bring the students for a study visit in West Malaysia & we decided to go to Johore + Singapore.
Our aim for the visit is to give exposure to the students on urban surroundings.
I am not familiar with Johore but i do have some idea what to proposed for the Singapore trip.
If possible, we would like to have a good site for their project in Johore since our next project will focus on urban context.

Thus, i hope to get recommendations from fellow friends here about where can i bring the students for a good architectural trip. But not to forget about sustainability...

Thank you for all your positive feedback.
